10 Years was the Icelandic entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam performed by Daði & Gagnamagnið. The song pays tribute to Daði's 10 years of marriage to his wife Árný and is considered the final part of the "Is This Love?" trilogy which began in 2017.
As one of the group's members tested positive for COVID-19 prior to the semifinal, they were unable to perform their song live on stage. A recording of their second rehearsal was used instead.
It qualified from the second semifinal in 2nd place. In the final, it was performed 12th following Switzerland and preceding Spain. At the close of voting, it finished in 4th place with 378 points, bringing Iceland back to the top 5 for the first time since 2009.
Lyrics[]
We've been together for a decade now
Still everyday I'm lovin' you more
If I could do it all again
I'd probably do it all the same as before
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had had your love
I didn't become myself before I met you
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had felt your love
Everything about you I like
We started out so fast
Now we can take it slower
But it takes some time
Takеs a little time, so take a littlе time
As it ages like wine
How does it keep getting better?
Everyday our love finds a new way to grow
The time we spend together
Hmm, simply feels good
We got a good thing going
And just when I thought that my heart was full
I found places that I never explored
You're so fascinating
And I can't remember the last time I was bored
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had had your love
I didn't become myself before I met you
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had felt your love
Everything about you I like
How does it keep getting better?
Everyday our love finds a new way to grow (Finds a new way to grow)
The time we spend together
Hmm, feels good
How does it keep getting better?
Every day our love finds a new way to grow
The time we spend together
Hmm, simply feels good
We got a good thing going
