Years ago, when I was younger
I kind'a liked a girl I knew
She was mine and we were sweethearts
That was then, but then it's true
I'm in love with a fairytale even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind, I'm already cursed
Every day we started fighting
Every night we fell in love
No one else could make me sadder
But no one else could lift me high above
I don't know what I was doing
When suddenly we fell apart
Nowadays I cannot find her
But when I do we'll get a brand new start
I'm in love with a fairytale even though it hurts
Cause I don't care if I lose my mind, I'm already cursed
She's a fairytale oo yeah, even though it hurts
Cause I don't care if I lose my mind, I'm already cursed

vocal The song is simply amazing - it does deserve to be the best song of ESC 2009! Though there were many other good songs too.
The rhythm is catchy, melodious; vocals are really good; the lyrics are pretty simple yet make sense and easy to remember. As regards the instruments... well, you should just listen to it yourself!!!
Btw, I recommend everyone to listen to Alexander Rybak's other "fairytales" of his newly released "Fairytales" album. The album is magical! I'm charmed by the voice and the instruments...
