Denmark 2000

Updated 20th February: The Olsen Brothers will sing Et Stjerneskud in Stockholm, after winning the Danish final.

More news later. Rest of the page awaits an update.

Danish Television has announced the ten entries for next year's Danish final, to be held on Feb 19 in Copenhagen.
Here are the songs and composers and now performers.

Peter Nordby Stokholm writes from Denmark: The Danish National Final 2000 will be held in Copenhagen in Denmark on 19th of February 2000 in a great show which will probably be the best and greatest Danish National Final ever.

The Show will be hosted by Michael Carøe and Natasja Crone Back. Michael is a very popular Danish entertainer and Natasja is on the sport in Danish Television - DR1. Besides working on the sport she has also made a great TV show about The New Millenium on 31th of December 1999 from a studio in Copenhagen City.

The show will be held in the heart of Copenhagen in a buildung called the "Cirkusbygningen" which has capacity for almost 4000 spectators. 10 songs will be performed and then the telephone jury will decide the top 5 songs which will then be performed again.

Afterwards the telephone jury plus a team of experts will decide who the winner is.

The winning song will be sung in English at The Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm on 13th of May 2000 in The Globen Arena in Sweden.

Besides what I already have informed you about I can tell you that there will perform great stars in the break between the 10 songs and the top 5 songs. The great stars are still unknown except for one. The one who has already been announced is CHARLOTTE NILSSON from Sweden who of course won the 1999 Eurovision Song Contest. She will of course sing the winning song TAKE ME TO YOUR HEAVEN. I have tickets to the show and I am really looking forward to see/hear Charlotte.

Danish Television expects that about 2.000.000 people which is about 40 % of the population are going to watch the show.

Thanks Peter!
