Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest
◄2019 2020 2021►

Denmark originally planned to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 with the song "Yes" written by Emil Lei, Jimmy Jansson and Linnea Deb. The song was performed by the duo Ben and Tan. The Danish broadcaster DR organised the national final Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2020 in order to select the Danish entry for the 2020 contest in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The national selection consisted of a radio semi-final and a televised final. In the final, the winner was selected over two rounds of voting. The results of the first round were decided upon through the combination of jury voting and public voting while in the second round, the winner was selected solely by public televoting. "Yes" performed by Ben and Tan was the winner after gaining 61% of the public vote.

Denmark was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 14 May 2020. However, the contest was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background

Prior to the 2020 contest, Denmark had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-eight times since their first entry in 1957.[1] Denmark had won the contest, to this point, on three occasions: in 1963 with the song "Dansevise" performed by Grethe and Jørgen Ingmann, in 2000 with the song "Fly on the Wings of Love" performed by Olsen Brothers, and in 2013 with the song "Only Teardrops" performed by Emmelie de Forest. In the 2019 contest, "Love Is Forever" performed by Leonora qualified Denmark to the final, where it placed twelfth.

The Danish national broadcaster, DR, broadcasts the event within Denmark and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. DR confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest on 25 May 2019.[2] Denmark has selected all of their Eurovision entries thus far through the national final Dansk Melodi Grand Prix. Along with their participation confirmation, the broadcaster announced that Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2020 would be organised in order to select Denmark's entry for the 2020 contest.[2]

Before Eurovision

Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2020

Ben and Tan at Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2020

Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2020 was the 50th edition of Dansk Melodi Grand Prix, the music competition that selects Denmark's entries for the Eurovision Song Contest. The event consisted of a radio semi-final held between 20 and 24 January 2020 followed by a final held on 7 March 2020. The final was televised on DR1 as well as streamed online at DRTV.[3]

Format

Nine songs competed in a semi-final which consisted of three regional groups of three songs. The winner of each group as determined exclusively by an online public vote by listeners of DR P4 qualified to the final, while a nine-member jury panel composed of members from the nine regional DR P4 stations selected two wildcards out of the remaining non-qualifying songs for the final.[4] Ten songs consisting of the five semi-final qualifiers and five pre-qualified songs competed in the final where the winner was determined over two rounds of voting. In the first round, the top three songs based on the combination of votes from a public vote and a five-member jury panel qualified to the superfinal. In the superfinal, the winner was determined exclusively by a public vote. Viewers were able to vote via SMS or a mobile application specifically designed for the competition. Viewers using the app to cast a vote were provided with one free vote.[5]

Competing entries

DR opened a submission period on 2 October 2019 for artists and composers to submit their entries. Entries could be submitted throughout the year, however only songs submitted by 1 November 2019 were considered for the 2020 edition of the competition.[6][7] The broadcaster received 600 entries during the submission period. The regional DR P4 jury selected nine songs for the semi-final from the entries submitted to the broadcaster, while a selection committee of industry professionals selected the five pre-qualified songs for the final.[8][9] The competing artists and songs in the semi-final were announced on 20 January 2020, while the five pre-qualified finalist acts were announced and officially presented on 31 January 2020. Among the competing artists was RoxorLoops who represented Belgium in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 as part of the group Witloof Bay.[10][11]

The five-member jury panel was composed of: Pelle Peter Jencel [da] (radio host on DR P3), Mich Hedin Hansen (songwriter and music producer), Ida Corr (singer), Lasse Kramhøft [da] (music producer) and Nicolai Molbech (radio host and DJ).[5] In the superfinal, the winner, "Yes" performed by Ben and Tan, was selected solely by a public vote.[21] In addition to the performances of the competing entries, Wafande and Danish Eurovision 1961 entrant Dario Campeotto performed as the interval acts.

At Eurovision

According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 28 January 2020, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in. Denmark was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 14 May 2020, and was scheduled to perform in the second half of the show.[23] However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the contest was cancelled.[24]

Prior to the Eurovision Song Celebration YouTube broadcast in place of the semi-finals, it was revealed that Denmark was set to perform in position 11, following the entry from Switzerland and before the entry from Albania.[25]
