he was told that he had won so he could prep for the special song in the end. but he choose not to accept that and ended in second place prolly for the reason that this wasnt gonna end well
This was a great performance by Magni, probably among the top in the entire season but I disagree about Magni. Overall, he was not good enough as the the ones who went further than him and his attitude & personality sucked.
Powerful vocal - amazing artist and I'm shocked that it did not get more excellent reviews from the public yet. (Far) better than the original... Wow!!!
this is the by far, best cover. It can never exceed the original. One of my favorte songs and I wish there was a "non-live" version of this song covered by him! great job!
I'm an Icelander like Magni and it is ridiculous he didn't win this contest! He had and has such a beautiful voice it is unmatched and that song always gives me goosebumps! The only reason the other one won was because of his looks, that is all. And I am definitely not just saying it because he's from my country. He's just that good a singer he should've won.
Magni, Dilana, Storm, Lukas and Zayra all, seriously, seriously good. It's been 17 years but every once and a while, I put them on. They are just damn good, each in their own right.
@@annalucy89 2006 according to Wikipedia. I thoroughly enjoyed the performances. The names I listed before really should have had recording contracts. Damn good performers.
@@winnowmethis9501 God damn that makes me feel even fucking older!! Jeez I had no idea it had been that long. I don't know if Magni is still playing here in Iceland but my god that is a long time, but then again my daughter does turn 16 this year so I was around 16 when this show was on. Did not remember it being that long ago!
Magni already had a band in Iceland. He’s all good! The singer they chose in the end was not the fan favorite, that’s for sure. I remember he appeared to be strung out, or that was the look and vibe presented. Magni rocked!
2024 I still listen to this faithfully. Love you for this song Magni
2017 and I'm still thinking Magni should have won that contest.
better he didn't. He would've been left with nothing after the first album just like Lukas. I like Dilana I was also a big Magni fan

agree
2020 and nah, if he won he'd be a nobody!
At least he has a chance on merit.
I didn’t even know how awesome this song was until Magni sung this. It’s a permanent fixture on my playlist now.
2018 still the best version of this song
The only song from this show that I still listen to on a regular basis. Love Magni.
This one. Plus Storm's original and also Toby's original. These three songs still get heavy rotation on my list
for me it's (1) this (2) dilana: roxanne (3) ryan star: losing my religion (4) josh logan: santeria
2022 and I still get goosebumps every time!
2023 and me too!
same here
He was the best rocker on that show
2023 and still thinks he is the best singer in the competition.
Best performance ever! In both seasons of Rockstar!
Great singer. Amazing musician. & stellar personality!!
Powerful vocal - amazing artist and I'm shocked that it did not get more excellent reviews from the public yet. (Far) better than the original... Wow!!!
The best thing about this song is that i can hear Magni sing it live every other weekend
Why that? Is he your neighbor?
Keep coming back to this version. Amazing
this is the by far, best cover. It can never exceed the original. One of my favorte songs and I wish there was a "non-live" version of this song covered by him! great job!
Fantastic!
He actually does sound like Ed from the band Live, he absolutely nailed it and it was a brilliant performance!
Greatest performance in a reality show ever? I think so!
Simply awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That...was fantastic.

No me perdía este reality. Que vuelva.
2023 still rocks 🤘
amazing man, very original
2020 still for magni
DAMN! ...that was awesomely good, for a lack of better words.
Yes it was. This was probably one of his best performances.
DaPhatPhantom I miss this series. American Idol had nothing on this. Good times. Need more Rockstar!
I know... I agree!!!
They should have picked him wow!!;♥️
I got the chills
Magni.. Fucking legend and pride of Iceland
Yep he is the best
Magni...ficent
This is my favorite performance of this song, I wonder what ever became of him after the show.
He returned to Iceland, rose to A list music celebrity there and continues to perform to this day.
the long lost brother of david draiman.
Nope, David`s voice is stronger, Magni`s voice is softer. But they are both excellent singers but on different registers

it's been 17 years since this was on!?!?! Wtf!? No that makes no sense! it hasn't been that long no way!!

Magni bestur

Definitely the best voice, he lost bc he outshined the "stars".
Caralho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Magnífico
sjæææææææææææt
Magni er í miklu uppáhaldi hjá mér sem söngvari
Telling the crowd to be quiet?!?
Becaus the song starts very quietly. That's why.
@@ZeeZee9 That is not English....
@@twiston43 I had a typo lol. Please re-check.
@@ZeeZee9 Oh ok.
0:39...."This crazy fart surrounds me"? Dude. There's medicine for that.
"This crazy fart's'aroused me"* Is what i hear, hehehe
Lmao. I think he said "fog" but this is hilarious.
He is really good but Lukas ran away with this
I like this! I dint give a shit about george bloyd....
This crazy fart surrounds me
Too damn aggressive for this cover.
