Who could forget the Danes’ triumph in the 2013 Eurovision final? They walked away the victors that year thanks to the gorgeous Emmelie de Forest and her single ‘Only Teardrops’, which scored a mammoth 281 points in the final, almost 50 points clear of its nearest competitor.
But things didn’t go quite so well for Denmark last year; failing to progress past the semi final stage with Anti Social Media’s ‘The Way You Are’.
So it’s over to three piece outfit Lighthouse X to redeem things in 2016 and they’re armed with their top 20 single ‘Soldiers Of Love’, which they’ll perform towards the end of the second semi final.
It’s a pretty pleasant pop track that’s sure to have global appeal (let’s face it, it could have been ripped out of the One Direction back catalogue). So plenty of commercial appeal, but is it extraordinary enough to win?
Huit points.
Australia's first stop for pop!
