That kid is younger than my little brother. Definitely not what I think of when I think of western men.  |

He's 22 I think. Definitely looks more a boy than a man. Very very beautiful, but not terribly sexy. But then again... if I were fifteen...
His mum and dad are famous classical musicians in Norway, and so it's not surprising he is rather talented (and rather a good showman too). |

Here are short excerpts from several contestants:

I especially like the comment at the end:
"Did you ever wonder what happened to countries that didn't invent blues or jazz or rockabilly or R & B or ? or hip hop? This happens..." |

| ^ Well, we didn't invent any of those things in England either but we do ok. It's the continental Europeans. They just don't get it. |

Omigod, you're right! He actually just turned 23. Unbelievable.

I've always wondered why the pop music of mainland Europe is so terrible. Abba is the only exception I can think of. Why does all the good pop and rock music come from the UK or the USA?
Although I'm impressed by the showmanship of that Norwegian lad. I can see he's going to be a hit with the ladies!! |

| You must try this. I heard this once so I know what it sounds like. I just went to the site to hear it again. I double clicked because the conection was a bit slow. And, as we know, when that happens at daves we have a double post. Well in this case it opened two windows of that song a few seconds apart. And the music and singing was coming over my speaker from both windows at the same time. It sounded even better. Like he was doing a duet with himself. |

That must be something Lauguage related! I am talking about our music preference.
The boy's song is lovely, but I dont think I can bear it for long.
East European music has its unique pattern, you gotta listen to it a lot before you get used to and begin to love it all.
It took me a while to get used to Korean music, but now, I am totally in love with Korean music. |
