Soldiers of Love
Lyrics:
Tell me why we always fuel the fire\\nwhy we tend to close our eyes\\nWhat's the reason now we keep on hidin'?\\nWe can make it if we tried\\n\nI don't know why we don't care\\nThere's nothing to fear when I know you are there\\nSo let's not wait for someone else\\nTo make it right, make it right\\n\nTake my hand and never let go\\nSide by side, we're on the open road\\nUnbreakable with hope in our hearts\\nStep by step, we make a new start\\n\nLet's be soldiers of love, soldiers of love\\nSoldiers of love for life\\nTake my hand and never let go, never let go\\nAnd let's be soldiers of love\\n\nWhat's the meaning of a world on fire?\\nAnd a heart without a soul\\nI believe that we can shine a light on\\nWhat we already ought to know\\n\nSo let's not wait for someone else\\nTo make it right, make it right\\n\nTake my hand and never let go\\nSide by side, we're on the open road\\nUnbreakable with hope in our hearts\\nStep by step, we make a new start\\n\nLet's be soldiers of love, soldiers of love\\nSoldiers of love for life\\nTake my hand and never let go, never let go\\nAnd let's be soldiers of love\\n\nUnbreakable, don't let it go\\nIt's an open road, time to let it show\\nInvincible, gonna climb the wall\\n\nTake my hand and never let go\\nNever let go\\n\nTake my hand and never let go\\nSide by side, we're on the open road\\nUnbreakable with hope in our hearts\\nStep by step, we make a new start (Make a new start)\\n\nLet's be soldiers of love, soldiers of love\\nSoldiers of love for life\\nTake my hand and never let go, never let go\\nAnd let's be soldiers of love
Denmark participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 with the song "Soldiers of Love" written by Sebastian F. Ovens, Daniel Lund Jørgensen, Katrine Klith Andersen, Søren Bregendal, Johannes Nymark and Martin Skriver. The song was performed by the group Lighthouse X. The Danish broadcaster DR organised the national final Melodi Grand Prix 2016 in order to select the Danish entry for the 2016 contest in Stockholm, Sweden. Ten songs competed in a televised show where the winner was selected over two rounds of voting. The results of the first round were decided upon through the combination of jury voting and public voting while in the second round, the winner was selected solely by public televoting. "Soldiers of Love" performed by Lighthouse X was the winner after gaining 42% of the public vote. Denmark was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 12 May 2016. Performing during the show in position 13, "Soldiers of Love" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Denmark placed seventeenth out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 34 points, effectively making it the worst result for Denmark in Eurovision since its debut in 1957.
