Discussions had been ongoing as to whether the song would be performed in Icelandic or English. This is the first time since 1997 that Iceland’s entry to the competition will be performed in Icelandic, ruv.is reports.

The two semi-finals will take place May 14-16 and the final on May 18 in Malmö, Sweden.

The song is currently at the top of the Icelandic charts.
