Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

  Denmark has been suffering the past few years and is eager to change back to the success they enjoyed in early 2010's. This year's cast includes a couple of familiar previous wannabes, Ditte Marie and Albin , and a familiar name to all us old folks, dee dee na na na , Whigfield!

Ditte Marie - Riot Anna Ritsmar - Starlight Rasmussen - Higher ground Sannie - Boys on girls Sandra - Angels to my battlefield Lasse Meling - Unfound Carlsen - Standing up for love Karui - Signals Rikke Ganer-Tolsøe - Holder fast i ingenting Albin Fredy - Music for the road

A bit of the same happens with Aya next, the song's just completely different. And even Kenneth next. Quite a nice song but just not getting right there. I guess it all comes down to the live performance if they can make their songs alive or not. Then enters Ditte Marie with a song that I can easily picture on music video channels and chart shows all over the world. A bit like these David Guetta efforts. Is this the Eurovision winner Denmark is so desperately seeking? I doubt but would surely do very well (and for once I would like the Danish entry, lol). Philip with Finnish Em...
