Melodi Grand Prix 2023

The 8 artists hoping to represent Denmark at the Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool have been revealed: maia maia, Søren Torpegaard Lund, Mariyah LeBerg, ...

I've also been a fan of the Eurovision Song Contest - especially in recent years - so I'm really happy and excited about the potential opportunity to represent and make the country proud in such an iconic competition, and with this song that I really like. Even being born and raised on the Faroe Islands, a remote nation, is no barrier to being well connected with the rest of the world. It's as much a song for myself as it is a song for everyone else. Now it is time for the rest of Denmark, and perhaps even all of Europe, to get to know the talented and ambitious young musician. It's crazy to be part of Melodi Grand Prix, and to be able to show the whole of Denmark who we are, our bond with each other and what we're passionate about. I am equal parts excited and nervous that the people behind Melodi Grand Prix have taken a chance on me and the sound I bring. Freedom is Nicklas Sonne's take on the traditional Melodi Grand Prix song, combining a heavy guitar sound with the grandiosity of a big Melodi Grand Prix chorus! The song has a grand feel and there is a lot at stake from the second the strings and synthesisers land in the intro. Mariyah and the renowned songwriter and producer Chief 1 have for a long time circled around the idea of embarking upon a collaboration, and last year it ended up being the song Human, written in collaboration with the Norwegian songwriter Nermin Harambasic. Personally, I think that humility and honesty run far deeper than all the set-up and perfection we are bombarded with and strive for on a daily basis. We are strong and beautiful just the way we are and we need to be there for each other. With this belief in himself, he will fight hard to be given the opportunity to represent Denmark on the international stage at the Eurovision Song Contest.

From the stage at the musical theatre scene to the stage at DMGP, 24-year-old musical artist Søren Torpegaard Lund is right here – as his song title “Lige her” translates to in English. Now they are ready to conquer the competition at DMGP having Thomas Buttenschøn among their songwriters, who placed third together with Chief 1 in DMGP 2021.
