Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

^ I am not too sure about it...Jenny hasn't been on the charts since ages ago and I think she really needs to have a good song to get it.
Then it's also Thomas Gson thats written the song it seems...and IMO he is not a good songwriter, so we'll see. :/

Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

Half the tracks involving Swedish writers (lame)

^ Oh yeah....the Swedish import strikes again in DMGP. :lol:

I don't have much to say about the line-up. Even for me most of the names are more or less completely unknown to me. I watched the press conference and I was hoping for something big that could really shake the ground.

DR has high sky-high ambitions this year again but I don't really see those ambitions in the line-up. Considering that Aqua, Hej Matematik, and Infernal were rumoured participants I'm slightly disappointed. But anyway, I'll listen to the songs before I judge.

But no doubt Jenny Berggren is the headliner out of these names.

I'm curious about the indie-band, A Friend In London though. Apparently they've had succes in Canada and on youtube they sound promising. :p

Agree!

But seems highly unlikely though, they also translated everytime they got a chance to do so.

Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

:eek: I AM SPEECHLESS DENMARK!

I was so worried that this NF would be turned to a complete ABBA-NF, but oh so fresh and quite modern this MGP Denmark feels! :eek: I like all the ten songs almost, don't know who I like the most.

BRA JOBBAT, GRANNEN! ;)

Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

.....what happened in Denmark? :? Way too many schlager type songs. Hopefully none of them win as the alternatives sound much better.

Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

I have 2 faves: Anne Noa and Stine Kinck.
Though I expected something more than this.

Re: DANMARK - Denmark 2011

I felt pretty let down when the artists were announced but now that the songs are out I'm suddenly left with some sort of hope again. I'm actually positively surprised by the quality of the songs this time.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but Jenny Berggren is actually my favourite. Usually not that into schlager-songs but this is one big exception. If she can perform it on stage I don't see how she wouldn't go to Düsseldorf. It has that typical Scandinavian sound that may not do well in ESC (as recent years have proved) but I hope I'm wrong.
