#Eurovision #DMGP #Eurovision2024
Saba - Sand
In addition to Danish indie star Pil, "Sand" was written by Swedes Jonas Thander and Melanie Webbe. This is their first collab, but they have previously written entries like ""I've Been Waiting for This Night", "Bigger Than Us", "Move", and "Love Is Forever"
Aura Dione - Mirrorball of Hope
Danish pop star Aura Dione makes her DMGP debut with the help of Michelle Leonard and Alexander Brown. While the former is know for Lenna's "Slingshot" and German fan favourite "Wear Your Love", the latter had a song in DMGP14
Basim - Johnny
Basim will be no stranger to eurofans, having secured 9th place at Eurovision 2014. He also wrote another entry that year. Frederik Nordsøe is a major hit-maker in Denmark, responsible for many top 10 singles. He previously competed at DMGP twice
Stella - Sign Here
Stella makes her debut with the help of Tim Schou. Tim was the singer of A Friend in London who gave Denmark a top 5 finish at Eurovision 2011. Since then he has written a range of NF songs, including fan favorite "Lige Her" and Loreen-ending "Kiss You Goodbye"
RoseeLu - Real Love
Another new singer, RoseeLu's song was written by the forces behind Alphabeat, as well as Jakob Groth Bastiansen (Sidse Holte - "Vi er der om lidt") and Joachim Ersgaard, who wrote 2019 English/Greenlandic fan favourite "League of Light"
The remaining songs do not seem to have any connections to previous entries:
Chu Chu - The Chase (Zoom Zoom)
Janus Wiberg - I Need Your Love
UBLU - Planetary Hearts
By the way, I'm doing a fan jury for DMGP 2021-2024, let me know if you want to participate
And that's all! Hope you enjoy the entries! Check out my thread of previous deep dives, and keep an eye out for deep dives for Sanremo, Dora, Söngvakeppnin and more. I'll leave you with this network of all DMGP entries since 2009. Take care!
