Iceland’s Söngvakeppnin is kicking off tonight with its first semi final live from Reykjavik! A total of five acts are set to compete in tonight’s semi final for the two spots that lead to the Grand Final.

From the moment the participants were announced, we asked you to let us know who YOUR favorites are ahead of tonight’s show. At the moment of writing the article, the current standings of our poll were as follows:

1. Dilja – Lifandi inni í mér – 36%
2. Bragi – Stundum snýst heimurinn gegn þér – 30%
3. Celebs – Dómsdags dans – 18%
4. MÓA – Glötuð ást – 11%
5. Benedikt – Þora – 5%

Our team members have also listened to the five semi finalists, and this is how we ranked the songs:

1. Dilja – Lifandi inni í mér
2. Bragi – Stundum snýst heimurinn gegn þér
3. Celebs – Dómsdags dans
4. MÓA – Glötuð ást
5. Benedikt – Þora

As you can see, our readers and our editors agree completely on how tonight’s show should go, and that Dilja and Bragi are the runaway favorites ahead of Celebs in third, MÓA in fourth, and Benedikt in fifth place.

Our poll is going to remain open until the end of tonight’s show, so you still have time to vote and let us know who YOUR personal favorites are in tonight’s semi final of Söngvakeppnin 2023:
