Where I am - Maybe in the final?
Back to the roots:
Denmark has decided that Anja (Nissen) should represent them in Eurovision 2017.
The Runner-up from last year's edition (Never Alone) won the superfinal of Melodi Grand Prix with a totally amazing score of 64%.
Anja Nissen became famous when she won The Voice Australia back in 2014. The girl from Down Under flopped with her first album in such a way that she decides to go back to Denmark and try to start a carrer in Europe. Maybe that is one reason why she can reach the final because her English is absolutely on point ;-)

Powerballad:
In a way it is a typical song from Anja. A slow start which grows with every minute and gets more and more power in the course of time. I like that her song stands in the centre of the presentation and she gets the chance to present everything what is inside of her.
The performance is not as strong as the song is but, anyway, Anja can flash with her style to perform. The key is the simplicity. Well, the end of the song is in a way that typical what I had described. She is hitting very high and long notes and she has done this really good. We have got a year with a lot of ballads but the "Anja-style" makes it different because you would like to hear all of her vocal power and that is the difference. If the performance is finished, you will get a smile on your face because you will become happy with her together about a stunning performance.

The conclusion:
In the headline I have said evrything what I had thought about the song when I firstly listen to it. You are asking where you are - in the final, Anja, for sure.
The song is easy to understand, not because the lyrics are bad, no, because the connection is there. I mean that she starts to sing and you are in the song, you can feel everything of her.
At least she was last year my Runner-up too (1st Simone) but this year, to be honest, she was in no moment not the winner if you know what I mean. The audience was on point and noone earned such an applause like her on this evening.
To put it in a nutshell I think she will definitly reach the final and wil get there a place in the Top 15 because in comparison to the last representers of Denmark she gets one special thing - Personality. She is not only anyone, no, it is Anja and she gets such an outstanding voice! Ladies and Gentlemen, please vote for her a lot because Denmark have to reach the final after two years of non-qualification and whenever is it more possible than now?!
