"Venners nærhet" - Britt Synnøve Johansen
"When the closeness of friends turns into nothing, and the smile that brings hope fades"
The Norwegian final was held at the Stavanger Forum on 11th March, hosted by Øystein Bache. The 9 songs were reduced to 3 finalists, and after they had been performed again, they were voted on by 5 juries (1 jury of "experts", 1 jury of journalists, and the other 3 contained members of the public split according to their ages).
