"The Danish Way to Rock" was a song written in Danish (despite its English language title) by Nephew band member Simon Kvamm and music by the band Nephew and arranged and produced by Nephew and Carsten Heller. The song was released in cooperation with the Dansk Boldspil-Union (DBU), the Danish Football Association for the support of the 2010 Denmark national football team.
Recording
The song was recorded on 1 March 2010. That day, the members of the Danish band Nephew and vocalist Simon Kvamm and guitarist Kristian Riis accompanied by song producer Carsten Heller travelled to Vienna, Austria, where the Denmark national team was scheduled to compete and briefed the team of the song and their part. Some players notably Daniel Jensen and Nicklas Bendtner recorded their parts separately, then a collective take was made of the entire group singing in a hotel room.[1] Footage of the recording process was made available.[2]
