I evighet - Norway 1996 - Eurovision songs with live orchestra 

This is not only one of my favourite entries from Norway, but it's also one of my favourite Eurovision entries of all time.

I think Elisabeth was one of the best singers ever in the contest. She had a lovely voice, good vocal technique, musicality and feeling for the words.

One of the most beautiful of all Eurovision songs and Elisabeth sings it so wonderfully.

A perfect vocal from a fantastic artist in every respect.

One of the best songs in the Eurovision of all time!

What a tough year. Ireland, Norway *and* Sweden could've all taken the prize. But for me, this is the *real* winner. Such a beautiful song.

I Evighet sounds like something you hear when you enter heaven.

One of Norway's masterpiece in ESC

This is an amazing song sung by a fantastic singer.

The only runner-up since 1975 not to get 12 points at all. How unfortunate! This song is absolutely gorgeous, by far my favorite of Elisabeth Andreassen's Eurovision entries. A true diamond right there.

The true winner of 1996! This is really the kind of song I love 💗! It makes me feeling like if I am in a beautiful and charming Christmas with my family and my girlfriend and my friends in Norway 🇳🇴 in Oslo and we are celebrating 🥳 Christmas with the whole city 🌃 during an Aurora Borealis!!!!!! It is truly a gorgeous masterpiece !!!

Amazing! I'm glad she got to show what she could really do with her voice... Bobbysocks was fun, but this is in a completely different class!

One of the most beautiful song on eurovision

The true winner of 1996! Love 💗 from Lebanon 🇱🇧

This should have won by far... stunning

I am so thankful! I have played with Bettan several times, and I live together with the panflute man! ❤️

Absolutely one of my most favorite ESC-songs ever. It should have won that year (1996).

This song gives me the goosebumps. I met Elisabet in Oslo while the Eurovision 2010 was being held by chance. She was really kind to me. Love her ;DDD and love this beautiful song. By the way, I also agree that Eurovision should be live again. I miss the orchestra. Let's put some glamour on it.

Day is turning to evening Is gone, soon forgotten But what we gave remains A seed will grow and sprout Such is love’s way When it strikes you and me Only when we learn and understand It will ripen and be ours Though the days pass by Vanishing, becoming years Love will always remain For ever and eternity For eternity The river smoothly flows Through meadows, plains and woods But on its way to reach its goal It passes stony rapids Though the days pass by Vanishing, becoming years Love will always remain For ever and eternity For eternity Though the days pass by Vanishing, becoming years Love will always remain For ever and eternity For eternity Love will always remain For ever and eternity For eternity

Best Norwaygian song ever,,and she was very impresive

What a year for the esc, fantastic voices, perfect music and so excellent performances

This song grazes perfection

One of the absolutely most brilliant songs in Eurovision ever. Norway should've definitely been the host the folllowing year too.

Great vlkc Great voice and brilliant performance, definitely deserved the second place she scored.

What a beautiful song!

Very beautifull! Is amaising!

Beautiful Bettan. Love, Love, Love this song - Goosebumps every time ❤

the only ESC song that consistently reduces me to tears.

omg this should have won imo. stunningly beautiful

The song writer, Torhild Nigar, took part in the Norwegian final in 1992, with the song «Hjembygd» if anyone is intrested!

beautiful song. awesome

1985, 1994 and 1996. A versatile Eurovision icon

wonderful song, wonderful music, wonderful vocals (both in norwegian and in swedish) 😄

One of my favorites of all time. Absolutely amazing, should have won.

We fly in time with such a powerful song. At the end we feel like may the Aurora Borealis come and all is complete. Love from Brazil !!

One of the best ESC songs ever.

1996 is my Golden Year for Eurovision - Norway, Sweden, UK & Ireland❤️

goosebumps all over

What a stunning voice.

One of the most beautiful songs in the Eurovision. That year Ireland and Norway should have divided the prize. :)

so beautiful, this should have one!

Que voz Que grande. Gracias.

stil one of the best songs of eurovision

Love this song!!

One of the best host entries ever. Just a shame it had to be in the same year as The Voice; any other year it would've won hands down

Gooosebumps. One of my favourites of all time ❤️

Still best song in Eurovision, ever. Kudos.

Elisabeth du synger fantastisk. Nydelig musikk med mye kjærlighet. Tusen hjertelig takk for den skjønne sangen. Blir helt satt ut. Klem fra mamma Bente

The best Eurovision song Ever 😍😍😍😍

Amazing voice, amazing song 👍🏻👍🏻

una gran balada que suena como un verdadero himno, y una fantastica interpretacion de la gran cantante , la senora Elisabeth que nos eleva a todos los seres humanos a los cielos.Fantastica.

Gran canción para ser el país anfitrión,buena orquesta,buena voz...de lo mejor de 1996.

Amazing!!! Very beatiful song and very beatiful voice, kisses to Norway from Spain.

This Lady has a great voice remembering her performance in Dublin.

*This should have won* one of the best songs in Eurovision ever!

breathtaking!

Bravo! Otroligt stark röst Elisabeth Andreassen...wow!

Very beautiful song From Turkey... Jeg elsker Norge!

Love our Nordic cousins ❤❤

A beautiful song and a stunning performance a masterpiece, should have won, I love it, a timeless classic.

Best Norwegian entry ever, Best song from 1996, I liked it very much from the 1st time when I listened to it in this final 1996. Should have really won. This song has such a great mood, I still get goosebumps now. And Sweden was my 2nd place. Ireland was good but never in life as good as Norway or Sweden.

Wow did i love this song. ESC has certainly lost some of its charm with no live orchestra and songs in broken English.

When you hear this song, it's hard to believe that Norway wasn't hosting the Eurovision in 1997.

Greetings from Lisbon, Portugal!

very nice song

The best song in 1996 Eurovision song contest, it deserved to win instead of the usual Irish entry

Αυτά είναι τραγούδια, όχι οι αηδίες που στέλνονται σήμερα...........

Norway 12 points,una gran canción,cuanto más la escuchas más gusta¡

12 points from the netherlands 🇳🇱🤘🤘🤘🤘

Just fantastic

Fantastic/Victor from Australia

Oj, vilken fantastisk röst du har, Bettan! Wow! en av de bästa.

That is GOOD!!!

This song is beautiful! Deserved to have won...

Oh I Can still remember... All top 3 songs that year were all fantastic balads... And I really thought Norway would have won...

I love how the guy playing the flute is my uncle 🤩🤩

admiro a los noruegos que cantan en su propio idioma. ya que el noruengo es un dioma muy musical, con unos representantes que son los mejores del mundo , no solo de Europa sino del mundo entero.

Elisabeth es un bello astro que brilla por si mismo.

Elisabeth has participated 4 times in the Esc. 1 victory with Hanne Krogh, a second place with this song, a 6th place with Jan Werner, and an 8th placing with Kiki Danielsson. That’s quite impressive, 4 times top 8.

es simplemente divina la gran cantante y una sublime balada.

The song is so beautiful and reminds me from Disney movie "The Good Dinosaur"

Ademas de ser un apersona muy bella , canta como los angeles.Es una cancion sublime gracias a su bellisima voz.

BRING BACK THE LANGUAGE BARRIER ❤ IT DEFINES US ALL ❤❤

La gran ganadora para mi.... Preciosa melodía y canción ♥️

Good!!

Old Eurovison good live performance...

The time Norway deserved 2 wins in a row. Elizabeth & Norway was robbed of their 3rd win here!

Norge havde nogle stærke melodier i midten af 90erne

Wow ! #thebest

Golden years of eurovision for norway. 1995 to 2009. Many good song and 2 victories. 2010 and later it is nooooooot good

Should have won ❤

amazing entry! deserved to win! (btw she looks like hillary klinton )

wowwie !!

Norway should've won, so sorry, i still have chills when i listen to this beautiful song..

So, so much better than the winners that year, Ireland, whose song with little vocal input was downright dreary.

ah, when the songs were actually in their own respective languages and not in english

qu'elle voix super

Brividi...🤩

Toux ceux qui font de la bonne musique et vivifient mon existence deviennent mes amis, et Elizabeth est l'une d'eux

elisabeth, es una cantante muy facil de recordar, pero muy dificil de olvidar, por sus grandes cualidades musicales.
