Strong, original song , modern tune with etno motive in background !

Not as homoerotic as this:

That...is an unfairly high standard.

 

[Sean]

Can I just say that this is the first time any of the staff have been involved with a Eurovision show? So proud!

That's our Danish correspondent Christian Kaad on the Danish panel!

ESC United has impact y'all!

 

[apasionata]

That...is an unfairly high standard.

Norway always sets the standards so nothing new.
But personally the biggest homoerotic fantasy I can get behind is definitely priest-believer one.

 

[RainyWoods]

Yaaay go Christian Kaad and ESCUNITED Slay the Eurovision.

 

[Sammy]

Good choice! Should qualify easily.
The song screams fantastic staging.

 

[Ewigkeit]

Nice song but it's nothing near to Starlight.

 

[marty]

song is ok. staging was bad. 4 points

 

[HatarWebbsidor]

Good luck Denmark, I will vote for you.

 

[Kaz]

3 points for now. The song is not as epic as it thinks it is.

Overall a good choice. I preferred Sandra but Rasmussen was a close second. It still sounds cheesy and Disney but after a few listens, I've realised that doesn't annoy me as much as I thought it would. Not sure how it'll fare yet in the semi of death but it's definitely not a certain NQ

7 points for now

I don't like it at all but it will go final for sure!

 

[DirtyFalcon]

Good song but not so Epic as some people say. I give a 7. My favourite song still are France and Czechia

 

[wtf]

Love the beginning but then an unneeded beat comes in and ruins everything

first 40 seconds are good though

Don't see it doing well, sadly.

THE GOOD:
-I like how epic this sounds for a three-minute song.
-The pairing of the vocals and the instrumentals is almost perfect.
-It's somewhat memorable.

THE BAD:
-It has a somewhat dated sound.

THE VERDICT:
This is a "bang-for-your-buck" song if I've ever heard one. With the right staging and a slight polishing of the vocals, and I say that Denmark is the winner. 10 points

Yaaay go Christian Kaad and ESCUNITED Slay the Eurovision.

we are taking over eurovision...now if they would finally consider an American jury, that would be great...I feel left out.

 

[stephanos13]

Good song but not that good for 12 pts. So... 10 pts from me.

I think Denmark can reach the Top 10 with this song but depends on the competition.
