An Icelandic journey to 2020: Til hamingju!

JOYEurovision: The Show, Music, Society & Culture

Even though there was no actual winner this year, most of the votes around the world saw Daði Freyr get #1 spot in the hearts of Eurovision voters.

Michael, Liam and Io wanted to say Til hamingju! by looking back at some of Iceland’s entries since their debut in 1986. They even returned to the studio for the celebration.
