Re: DENMARK 2013

Snippets of all songs can be listened here under the column on the right called "Solisterne i DMGP 2013".

It's actually not that terrible as I had expected. Lots of uptempo/dance songs this year which is imo a good thing, so unless Brinck wins again, I could probably live with whoever ends up winning. Mohamed Ali seems like a winner to me already. He's already known from X-factor and will appeal to the same dominating group of people who liked Jesper Nohrstedt last year.

Re: DENMARK 2013

They sound average but seriously have the writers forgot chord progression most come across as ten a penny dance beat pop songs. Emellie I'd like to hear in full but Mohamed will probably win.

Re: DENMARK 2013

As I can understand is Only Teardrops produced by Thomas Stengaard, member of the group The Benefits.

The Benefits - Crash and Burn

Re: DENMARK 2013

Judging from those snippets I'm not sad that I'll miss this show on tv. DMGP will never be interesting.

Re: DENMARK 2013

They all sound ok but very generic. Nothing really stood out to me but maybe that will change when the full versions come out.

Not sure why Brinck came back with a seemingly weaker song than his previous one.

Re: DENMARK 2013

A few years back it was nice for a change to hear these poppish radio tunes at DMGP, but not any more, they don´t surprise at all and it says little of the music taste of the Danish tv.They are definitely the same style all over again, maybe some okish song, but that´s it. Well, it´s not enough, at least in Iceland, with so much less population and options, they are offering different things, or trying them ;)

Re: DENMARK 2013

Well, we were warned: There would not be a wide variety of genres in this Danish MGP. From the snippets it's not easy to tell how the whole songs in fact will sound. I am still curious - although there were none of the snippets that really stood out for me.
I have not given up on Denmark yet, though!!!

Re: DENMARK 2013

No winning material here. For my taste at least. I'm glad there are a lot of up-tempo songs and it's schlager but these songs can go as far as DMPG is. In ESC...hm I don't think they will work. But I need to hear the full versions coz a lot can change...

Out of these 30-second teasers my favourite is Stay Awake.

Re: DENMARK 2013

Stay Awake- Well it's top of the leaderboard on dr.dk and I can see why. It doesn't appeal to me though, but I wouldn't be surprised if it won.

Unbreakable- Ahh **** it's not a Sinplus cover act! It's terrible actually. It's second on the leaderboard but I don't know why. Please don't choose this Denmark.

Human- It's like that Owl City song, Fireflies. I'd like it if it was a different singer. Brinck reminds me too much of Ronan Keating and he's a terrible person. This song is too airy to get across the Oresund though.

Only Teardrops- I like the music itself, it's a lovely arrangement of wind and percussion instruments. The song is not so good though, but I can see it doing well. Not well enough to go to Malmo though.

Invincible- Ahhhh Jesus get away, what an awful song.

Jeg Har Hele Tiden Vidst Det- I don't like it at all. It's just a few women shouting over each other about how they've always known something. It won't go far. Also it reminds me of how Danish people mangle Norwegian. :p

We Own The Universe- What is with all the turbo-Europop in North Europe this year?! Just get out.

I'm Not Alone- No Kate, you're not alone. There are thousands of people out there singing bad songs too, don't worry, you'll find friends.

Rejs Dig Op- I like it. Not a lot, but I do like it. And it grows on me fast. It won't do well, sadly, but at least it's a break from the europop.

Beautiful to Me- Just stop. It's at the bottom of the leaderboard for a reason.

My Stem goes to Rejs Dig Op. Reluctantly.
