- We have chosen to publish all this year's songs in full length in advance so as many people as possible get the chance to get to know them before the TV show, says Jan Lagermand Lundme, entertainment manager at DR.
In the past years DR has only published a short 30-second sample of the 10 songs for Dansk Melodi Grand Prix. And there's a reason that DR this year publish the songs in full length before the show: "We are in it to win", as Jan Lagermand Lundme from DR says.
This years Danish selection will take place on 7 February live from Gigantium in Aalborg.
