Английская Википедия:Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest 2017
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song contest national year Denmark participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 with the song "Where I Am" written by Anja Nissen, Angel Tupai and Michael D'Arcy. The song was performed by Anja Nissen. The Danish broadcaster DR organised the national final Melodi Grand Prix 2017 in order to select the Danish entry for the 2017 contest in Kyiv, Ukraine. Ten songs competed in a televised show where "Where I Am" performed by Anja Nissen was the winner as decided upon through the combination of jury voting and public voting over two rounds.
Denmark was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 11 May 2017. Performing during the show in position 8, "Where I Am" was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 13 May. It was later revealed that Denmark placed tenth out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 101 points. In the final, Denmark performed in position 10 and placed twentieth out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 77 points.
Background
Шаблон:Main Prior to the 2017 contest, Denmark had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-four times since its first entry in 1957.[1] Denmark had won the contest, to this point, on three occasions: in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Dansevise" performed by Grethe and Jørgen Ingmann, in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Fly on the Wings of Love" performed by Olsen Brothers, and in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Only Teardrops" performed by Emmelie de Forest. In the 2016 contest, "Soldiers of Love" performed by Lighthouse X failed to qualify Denmark to the final.
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 2017 Eurovision Song Contest on 6 June 2016.[2] Denmark has selected all of their Eurovision entries through the national final Dansk Melodi Grand Prix. Along with their participation confirmation, the broadcaster announced that Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2017 would be organised in order to select Denmark's entry for the 2017 contest.[3]
Before Eurovision
Melodi Grand Prix 2017
Melodi Grand Prix 2017 was the 47th edition of Dansk Melodi Grand Prix, the music competition that selects Denmark's entries for the Eurovision Song Contest. The event was held on 25 February 2017 at the Jyske Bank Boxen in Herning, hosted by Annette Heick and Johannes Nymark.[4] The show was televised on DR1 as well as streamed online at the official DR website.[5]
Format
Ten songs competed in one show where the winner was determined over two rounds of voting. In the first round, the top three songs based on the combination of votes from a public vote and a five-member jury panel qualified to the superfinal. In the superfinal, the winner was determined again by the votes of the jury and public. Viewers were able to vote via SMS or a mobile application specifically designed for the competition. Viewers using the app to cast a vote were provided with one free vote. The five-member jury panel was composed of five Danish Eurovision fans: Mogens Dalsgaard Myklebust, Mette Thorning Svendsen, Peter Hansen, Morten Kaiser and Søren Toft.[6][7]
Competing entries
DR opened a submission period between 6 June 2016 and 5 September 2016 for artists and composers to submit their entries. The entertainment director for DR, Jan Lagermand Lundme, stated that the competition would seek out "good songs with a strong chorus, which have the potential to be a hit and that can get us in the final of Eurovision".[3] The broadcaster received a record breaking 1,115 entries during the submission period; the previous record was set in 2016 when the broadcaster received 982 entries.[8] Music producers Cutfather and Jonas Schroeder, who had been affiliated with the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix since 2013, shortlisted 41 songs from the entries submitted to the broadcaster and a selection committee of 50 Dansk Melodi Grand Prix fans, television viewers and industry professionals selected five songs. An additional five participants were invited by Cutfather and Jonas Schroeder to compete.[9][10] DR held a press meet and greet at the DR Byen in Copenhagen on 19 January 2017 where the competing artists and songs were announced and officially presented.[11][12]

Promotion
Anja Nissen made several appearances across Europe to specifically promote "Where I Am" as the Danish Eurovision entry. On 2 April, Anja Nissen performed during the London Eurovision Party, which was held at the Café de Paris venue in London, United Kingdom and hosted by Nicki French. Between 3 and 6 April, Nissen took part in promotional activities in Tel Aviv, Israel where she performed during the Israel Calling event held at the Ha'teatron venue.[14][15] On 8 April, Nissen performed during the Eurovision in Concert event which was held at the Melkweg venue in Amsterdam, Netherlands and hosted by Cornald Maas and Selma Björnsdóttir.[16]
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.[17] On 31 January 2017, 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 11 May 2017, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show.[18]
Once all the competing songs for the 2017 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. Originally, Denmark was set to perform in position 9, following the entry from Hungary and before the entry from Ireland.[19] But after Russia was removed from the running order of the competition following their withdrawal from the contest, Denmark's position shifted to 8.[20]
The two semi-finals and final were broadcast on DR1 with commentary by Ole Tøpholm.[21] The Danish spokesperson, who announced the top 12-point score awarded by the Danish jury during the final, was Ulla Essendrop.
Semi-final
Anja Nissen took part in technical rehearsals on 2 April and 6 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 10 and 11 May.[22] This included the jury show on 10 May where the professional juries of each country watched and voted on the competing entries.[23]
The Danish performance featured Anja Nissen performing in a red dress which represented "purity, passion and vibrancy".[24] The LED screens transitioned from pink, purple and blue colours to gold and Nissen finished her performance on her knees with a pyrotechnic fountain effect.[25][26] Anja Nissen was joined by five off-stage backing vocalists: Andy Roda, Jasmin Gabay, Julie Lindell, Linda Andrews and Trille Palsgaard.[27]
At the end of the show, Denmark was announced as having finished in the top 10 and subsequently qualifying for the grand final.[28] It was later revealed that Denmark placed tenth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 101 points: 5 points from the televoting and 96 points from the juries.[29]
Final
Shortly after the second semi-final, a winners' 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 reverse order the countries appeared in the semi-final running order. Denmark was drawn to compete in the first half. 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 10, following the entry from Italy and before the entry from Portugal.[30]
Anja Nissen once again took part in dress rehearsals on 12 and 13 May before the final, including the jury final where the professional juries cast their final votes before the live show. Anja Nissen performed a repeat of her semi-final performance during the final on 14 May. Denmark placed twentieth in the final, scoring 77 points: 8 points from the televoting and 69 points from the juries.
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.
Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Denmark and awarded by Denmark in the second semi-final and grand final of the contest, and the breakdown of the jury voting and televoting conducted during the two shows:
