Background

Prior to the 2019 contest, Denmark had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-seven times since their first entry in 1957. [1] Denmark had won the contest, to this point, on three occasions: in 1963 with the song " Dansevise " performed by Grethe and Jørgen Ingmann, and twice in Sweden: in 2000 with the song "Fly on the Wings of Love" performed by Olsen Brothers, and again in 2013 with the song "Only Teardrops" performed by Emmelie de Forest. In the 2018 contest, "Higher Ground" performed by Rasmussen qualified Denmark to the final placing ninth.

The Danish national broadcaster, DR, broadcasts the event within Denmark and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. DR confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest on 10 August 2018. [2] Denmark has selected all of their Eurovision entries thus far through the national final Dansk Melodi Grand Prix . On 22 August 2018, the broadcaster announced that Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2019 would be organised in order to select Denmark's entry for the 2019 contest. [3]

At Eurovision

According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 28 January 2019, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in. Denmark was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 16 May 2019, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show. [20]

Once all the competing songs for the 2019 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the shows' producers rather than through another draw, so that similar songs were not placed next to each other. Denmark was set to perform in position 7, following the entry from Romania and before the entry from Sweden. [21]

The two semi-finals and final were broadcast on DR1 with commentary by Ole Tøpholm. [22] The Danish spokesperson, who announced the top 12-point score awarded by the Danish jury during the final, was 2018 Danish Eurovision entrant Rasmussen.

Semi-final

Leonora took part in technical rehearsals on 6 and 10 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 15 and 16 May. This included the jury show on 15 May where the professional juries of each country watched and voted on the competing entries. [23]

The Danish performance featured Leonora dressed in a white blouse and black trousers and performing with two dancers and two backing vocalists. The performance began with Leonora behind two screens that displayed a blue sky summer background and later pulled away to reveal the audience. During the second verse, Leonora climbed a ladder onto a big chair to join the backing vocalists. The dancers finished the performance by carrying ladders to climb towards the chair and sit upon with the other performers. The LED screens displayed an animated country scene with blue sky and clouds as well as a rising sun with rays of light flowing out. [24] [25] [26] The two dancers that joined Leonora were Ryan Jacolbe and Sinan Spahi, while the two backing vocalists were: Andrea Heick Gadeberg and Sofie Niebuhr McQueen. An additional off-stage backing vocalist was also featured: Jeanette Bonde. [27]

At the end of the show, Denmark was announced as having finished in the top 10 and subsequently qualifying for the grand final. It was later revealed that Denmark placed tenth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 94 points: 41 points from the televoting and 53 points from the juries. [28]

Final

Shortly after the second semi-final, a winner's press conference was held for the ten qualifying countries. As part of this press conference, the qualifying artists took part in a draw to determine which half of the grand final they would subsequently participate in. This draw was done in the order the countries were announced during the semi-final. Denmark was drawn to compete in the first half. [29] Following this draw, the shows' producers decided upon the running order of the final, as they had done for the semi-finals. Denmark was subsequently placed to perform in position 6, following the entry from Russia and before the entry from San Marino. [30]

Leonora once again took part in dress rehearsals on 17 and 18 May before the final, including the jury final where the professional juries cast their final votes before the live show. Leonora performed a repeat of her semi-final performance during the final on 18 May. Denmark placed twelfth in the final, scoring 120 points: 51 points from the televoting and 69 points from the juries. [31]

Voting

Voting during the three shows involved each country awarding two sets of points from 1-8, 10 and 12: one from their professional jury and the other from televoting. Each nation's jury consisted of five music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency. This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury was permitted to be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently. The individual rankings of each jury member as well as the nation's televoting results were released shortly after the grand final. [32]
