Introducing 2013: Denmark!

I have decided to take a look at each entry this year, in a lead-up to the contest! There are 39 countries participating this year, all aiming to win in Malmo (well, some don't wanna win!) Turkey, Portugal, Slovakia and Bosnia & Herzegovina decided to withdraw this year, which was a shame, so lets hope they'll decide to return for 2014! I have drawn all the countries randomly and today it's Denmark's turn...

Emmelie De Forest - Only Teardrops!

The BIG favourite, with fans and the bookmakers. Emmelie De Forest won the Danish selection after beating nine other participants! It was a fantastic selection - my favourites being among Kate HallBrinck and Albin. DMGP was held on 26th January. Once Emmelie won, it was clear that Only Teardrops was going to be a big fan favourite and it really is. She leads almost every poll and has the shortest odds with the bookmakers. And I think Emmelie deserves it - she is a great performer and her vocals are always good, even when she was nervous and shaking like a leaf in DMGP she still held her own vocally. Something which can not be said for everyone...

She'll qualify with ease - Emmelie is drawn between Croatia and Russia then once in the final Denmark will be among the top three. A possible winner for sure. I think it's only Germany which can trouble it, but then again we can't really make predictions until we see them rehearsing live in Malmo - that starts in a few weeks. I'm so exited! People have been complaining about Emmelie's vocal skills after a very underwhelming performance in London last week but I think she was still pretty good. Copenhagen 2014? I'm pretty sure, at the moment...
Eye for an eye, why tear each other apart? Please tell me why, why do we make it so hard?
Enjoy!

TOMORROW'S HINT - AGAIN, IT WASN'T TIME FOR A CERTAIN PARTICIPANT! :(
