Copenhagen 2014 Reviews: Pollaponk "Enga Fordoma"


Pollaponk (pictured) could be one of the most colorful acts in the history of the ESC, with a great song is there to boot. They will represent Iceland in Copenhagen with "Enga Fordoma."

"Enga Fordoma"--translated from Icelandic to English as "without prejudice" is a great song that is all punk and no substance. This is another example of a song that is worth listening to at an ESC. All killer, no filler. 100% punk. Goes down hard.

These guys will perform in the first semifinal on Tuesday, 6th of May. My gut feeling is that this song will make it to the grand final on the following Saturday, the 10th of May. As far as Iceland in ESC goes, there have been some good songs before, including Pall Oskar's "Minn Hinsti Dans" (My Last Dance), which is to me the best ESC song of the 20th Century (1997). This song will be up there on the best of ESC list for sure. I hope they make the grand final.


Up next: Can-Linn featuring Kasey Smith "Heartbeat."
