REVIEWING THE CLASS OF 2015: DENMARK!

Anti Social Media won DMGP back in January, even though Anne Gadegaard won the televote. This did cause some controversy.. Anyway, here's what we think about the Danish effort....

Ana: Denmark was totally wrong choosing this song. I love the 60s style but the song is too simple and flat. Maybe, being an uptempo song will give it some extra points but I’m not sure if that will be enough to make them reach the final. 4/10

Ilkar: Back to 60's with this The Beatles inspired number that I find only irritating. Totally uninteresting and unoriginal in every way. Nice suits thought. 2.5/10

Jack: When Anti Social Media won DMGP, I was not impressed. They had several more interesting and stronger songs in my opinion - such as Suitcase and Hotel A. Anti Social Media's entry isn't terrible. The tune is rather catchy.. If they're going to do well, the lead singer needs to work on his vocals as they were pretty horrendous during the Danish national final. But it isn't for me. 4.5/10

Jess: I have to say at first I was not a big fan of the song, however it has grown on me quite a bit! I think it is one to watch! 6/10

John: Well, they look far too innocuous to be "anti" anything but the Danish representatives this year have a very memorable tune. I really like this song and its feel-good tempo. Not the strongest entry ever from Denmark but there's something very like able about it. 7/10

OUR VERDICT - 24/50

OVERALL SCORE - 4.8/10

Denmark: Anne Gadegaard - "The jury stinks to hell"

Anti Social Media won the right to represent Denmark in Vienna last night and this has been a rather controversial choice to say the least. Anne Gadegaard, who won the televote and came 2nd overall, said "The jury stinks to hell." More here. And when asked if the best song won, she said: 

That I can't say. If it was up to the Danish public, yes I am. But again, I think that's hard to say. I've got to know the guys from Anti Social Media well and I think they're really nice. I get on really well with them. So I can give them that.

This blogger did prefer Anne's song and I can understand her frustration although I'd like to wish Anti Social Media all the best. It isn't as bad as some people are saying and it is catchy as hell! Interestingly, we had a similar situation in Cyprus last week. Fan favourite Panagiotis Koufogiannis won the televote although due to the jury, he didn't win and this was not a very popular decision. What do you guys think? Was Anne the real winner last night?

ANTI SOCIAL MEDIA TO REPRESENT DENMARK!

Anti Social Media narrowly beat Anne Gadegaard in Denmark and therefore Anti Social Media are going to fly the Danish flag in Vienna!

Anne Gadegaard came 2nd overall although did win the televote. Surprisingly, Tina & René only managed 6th. I did have a sneaky feeling they would take the crown after their performance, they did nail it vocally. I don't dislike The Way You Are, I just feel Denmark had stronger and better songs. Plus if Finland selects Satin Circus, both acts would totally cancel each other out in Vienna...

Anne performed her song amazingly tonight and was my winner. She should be proud!
