What a joyous and happy song. Well deserved 3rd place. One of Denmark's best ever..
In Demark it becommi g icommig
2 conductors. Good song. Good voice. This was amazing.
What a diva!
We like to give eachother points here in Scandinavia.
In this case it was well disserved.
Denmark with a red and white flag, singer dress in red, the guys in white, red in the title, and a good song, who can ask for more?
The only entry in the history of the ESC to have two conductors.
Yes. And now...... there isn't a single one. I miss them!
Me too
What a gem! I wish I could’ve relived that moment in 1989 in front of the television again! Eurovision at its best!!
Yessssssss
Det er det beste sang
AMEN to that Michael. 1989 was a Fantastic year in Eurovision. The Nordic Countries really represented this year especially Sweden, Denmark & Finland.
Plus the LIVE Orchestra is sooooo missed. 😀
what a shame that song didn't win - best song of 1989
Agreed.
Birthe Kjær is known by all danes 🇩🇰 She is like the queen of danish top music.
This song is so catchy, I really miss this genre... And 80s and 90s ESC
This kind of song makes me feel that Danish is quite a catchy language.
😄 Thanks
We love the Danes they are so Jolly
@JollyDanish haha
I mime this song 🎶 every year during Eurovision week with 4 vodkas n an audience of my friends who can’t speak until I’m finished with my performance!!!!! Glorious!
Love this. I miss the old style Eurovision.
A very good smart entry from Denmark
What a pro she is and the song is definitely one of Denmark's best ever in the ESC!
However, the no. 1 Danish song of all time didn't make it to the ESC in the Danish Melodi Grand Prix in 1960; To lys på ett bord. I'd give it douze points from Sweden even in 2019.
The first trumpet in this 89 orchestra was exceptional. He's brilliant on that end solo of En Dag as well.
yes, A great high blowing lead trumpet player. I especially like that part at 02.02-02.03
He also did well during Finland’s entry, I feel.
@@escLIVEmusic1 I've just read your write up on Portugal's entry. Clearly that first trumpet worked his magic on several entries! Portugal wasn't strong enough in this field to do finish higher unfortunately.
Birthe is the greatest should have won such a good song.
If they had chosen stronger male vocalists they might just have done so.
Jeg synes du er den bedste der synger
@Kalel Raylan it didnt
Those were the days of Eurovision
Bring back orchestra and live backing vocals
Outstanding voice and a very lovely song
I love this songs and it should have won the Eurovision song contest and it is so stunning and i love it
The whole world should be so joyfull and cute
From my birth year and one of my favourite eurosongs ever
Such a happy and fun song! What makes the performance better is how happy she looks being on the ESC stage. After placing 2nd place in 3 national finals, I think you'll be so happy after finally getting your ticket to the contest! Honestly, this would have been a great winner for 1989.
in two month she is turning 75 and she still does a lot of shows around in Denmark with her 11-man band . A true star, startet in 1968
Denmark was also one of the big favorites to win and I suppose DR was so disappointed that it didn't win that they started losing interest in the contest which resulted in the declining results in the 90's.
Mega god sang. Genial ide at få Henrik, Søren og Keld med på scenen
How didn’t this win 1st place!? Robbery
Agree totally 👍
Especially considering that Yugoslavia won with ‘Rock Me’ one of the worst songs of the year. This Danish Entry was the best song never to win the contest in its entire history. Greetings from 🇬🇧
The real question is how did Yugoslavia win? Their song was awful.
I keep coming back to this song. It's so good!
Simply sublime and never fails to cheer me up ❤❤❤
I’ve never gotten tired of this song since I heard it, always brings me back to my schooldays ❤
Just realized Søren Bundgaard of Hot Eyes wrote the music for this song. He’s basically Denmark’s Johnny Logan lol
Sören wins dansk melodi grand prix four times , 3 times with his wife Kirsten als hot eyes and one als writer of britte kjaerl
@@inezfeytons1764 Kirsten isen't He's wife😉
@@inezfeytons1764 Kirsten is married to someone else and has children. She sang Soren's songs for a number of years and they are friends.
I still get this song stuck in my head. I lived there when this song competed... I also still get Kim Larsen "Tjikker Likker Tjau Tjau" stuck in my head and Anne Linnet "Tusind Stykker."
Fantastic .music from DANEMARK tack AB
beatiful song
Best song ever from the Denmark 🇩🇰. Miss the time we could watching a real song show in all his concept . Great compositors, the true value of an live Orchestra and musics where we could easily ear the melodies without fireworks and screams. Congratulations Denmark and wish I could return to the past to join what we calling the Eurovision Song Contest .
So true. One of my farorite Danish songs ever. I'm Danish and a musician, and know all Danish songs. ;) This track makes me happy evertime I listen to it again and again and a.... :)
My winner 🤩
My winner in 1989
Man kan da kun blive glad i låget når man hører den sang. Fantastisk. Det var dengang der var noget ved melodi grand prix.
A great masterpiece, only one of a kind. Much loves from italy
ou're a bit down in the mouth, do you think everything's all grey?
Yes, I know how it is, of course, you know it
But forget it for a second, let it disappear into the air
Grab your palette, because now we'll put on the colours
We're painting the town red and the sky white of star gleam
All that is grey and boring gets an extra patch of colour
Then we give the clothes of night a brushstroke or more
And only when the sun says goodmorning and gets to work
We'll say goodnight
The glasses you're wearing can colour the things that happen
So you don't see the joys others see
But you can borrow mine for a couple of hours if you like
Have a look around, open your eyes, come out and hammer away
We're painting the town red and the sky white of star gleam
All that is grey and boring gets an extra patch of colour
Then we give the clothes of night a brushstroke or more
And only when the sun says goodmorning and gets to work
We'll say goodnight
Are you still sitting inside
Rolling down the blinds
The joys have to be found
Just keep at it and come along
(Just keep at it and come along)
We're painting the town red and the sky white of star gleam
All that is grey and boring gets an extra patch of colour
Then we give the clothes of night a brushstroke or more
And only when the sun says goodmorning and gets to work
Yes, only when the sun says goodmorning and gets to work
We'll say goodnight
omg thanks so much :D Now i finally know what she is singing. And it's a beautiful lyrics :D ^_^
En af Danmarks smukkeste og gladeste mænd, Keld Heick. Han gjorde det godt på dansegulvet, selvom han vist ikke er så glad for at danse 😉
❤❤❤❤❤❤
A great ESC song - and the song had so many aspects to it...."old" and cherished birthe, the oldest boy-band in the world (which was actually the real writer, composer and conductor and not stand-inns) By the way: Litteraly " vi maler rød" means "we paint the town red" - but it means: lets party tonight
it could also mean they are gonna kill a lot of people, and paint the "town" or "by" with blood
And your sick to your head
@@martinrein7312 It could but it doesn't in Danish.
I love it ❤❤God I miss the ' 80
Really catchy. My kind of song and singer. Lovely to hear positive comments ❤
Kan tydeligt huske hvor meget kritik den fik hjemmefra og så blev den flotte smittende melodi nr 3 og genialt med at henrik hoppede op på scenen.
Det var genialt tænkt, og helt klart vinderen - det ældste boy-band i verden og den mest sexede MILF i verden. Gad godt vide hvad, de andre lande tænkte (nok ikke noget)
great fun back in 1989
This should have won!!!
Should have won in 89, the best song of the contest
🤣🤣🤣
The eighties were such a simple time.
simple hahaha nicely said
Ok boomer
Nielsclj Cassøe well at least Eurovision was better then, people actually sung
She sold this song so well. How that disaster from Yugoslavia beat this is beyond me.
Because of political reasons... 😆
Both are good songs, kind of unfair to have a country that was going to disappear in a year or not to at least have one win
If this was 3rd and yugoslavia first, so who was the 2nd
@@veksivv3993 uk
@@smophie6260 ok thanks
love her!
Loved this entry and totally deserved its third placing. Actually thought it was better than the Yugoslav and UK entries aas well.
Absolut en af de MGP sange som stadig holder - selv efter 32 år.
Masser af energi og fest
The fact this didn’t get 1st place is a travesty
One of the best song ever
Das war noch MUSIK 🤗🤗❤️❤️
Det er virkelig dansk grand prix, når det er bedst. En sand ørehænger. Fantastisk sceneshow. Og en god solist.
Totally unpretentious and fun!
In which year, funny entry and good song deserved to win
Amo esta cancion esta señora lo canta con una alegria inmensa y un optimismo enorme !! Gran ganadora moral de ese año !!
She's a class act! She had been a professional singer for 21 years at this point, and she is STILL in the business, even though she is 70 today!
Denmark 12 point 🇩🇰❤️👍
Jeg elsker den her sang
Cheerful, warm and elegant 🥰👍🏻👏
Canción mítica, de una grandeza musical que puede traspasar galaxias.
Tema brillante, genial y vibrante que podría recetarse como antidepresivo.
Birthe Kjaer canta genial, guapa, elegante, derrocha estilo y personalidad.
Su tercera posición con 111 puntos es infame, es superior a las otras dos.
Una maravilla que no pasa de moda. Una gozada en 3 minutos. 12 Puntos.
Denmark was robbed! Do check out the English version, “I’m chasing butterflies”, which has an extra key change! 😊👍
I was 6 in 89, so I can't say I was paying attention to ESC when this was on, but I did get a tape a couple of years later with this song on it, and it's been stuck in my head ever since. It helps that I'm Danish and know the lyrics (which are really catchy). But also, after having looked up the winner and 2nd place of ESC 1989 I just don't know how this song placed below those.
Ni skulle vunnit med denna låt 1989. Den är fortfarande jättebra, bra sång, framförande och arrangemang.
wow, so so amazing!
I love this song. and this has to be the clearest copy I've ever seen!
Great song ❤❤❤
Divertida y elegante a la vez, con una sonrisa en la cara.
Calificación: 8,25/10
Should have won
Love it X
Well, as long as they have that keyboard player playing nothing, I'm calm.
The floor was extremely slippery. That is why they walk/dance so carefully :-)
Skulle have vundet. Bedste sang og musik
Das war noch Musik 🤩
heja Denmark from frankrike
Denemarken was voor mij de winnaar van esc 89
For me, this song is classier than the winner but not as good as why do I always get it wrong.
Birte Kjær f styrer!!!💘💘💘
Que vuelva esta Dinamarca a Eurovisión
Vi maler byen rød
We painting the city red-vi maler byen rød
Et af mine ynglingsnumre!

I love this song from Israel🇮🇱❤
My 3rd after Finland and Sweden
Let's grab our continent back! MEGA!

La encuentro un poco desfasada para 1989,pero transmite mucha alegría.
Jeg sidder og vipper hovedet til musikken
The best danish ever in Eurovision ... BY FAR!
Well, second only to Dansevise
we are painting the town red (going on a binge, on a spree), you are bending your head down a little, do you believe that all is grey by grey? yes, I know the trip, you see, you know well. but forget it for a while, let it vanish in the blue. take your own palette, because now we are going to apply the colours. we are painting the town red and the sky white with the light of the stars. gray and deep are apportioned to an extra touch of colour. then we give a brushstroke to the night clothes and more, and only when the sun says good morning and gets hold of its place we go and say good night. the barnacles you wear can colour the things that happen. then you cannot see the merriments other ones see. but you can lend mine for some hours if you want. look around you, open your eyes, jump and hit. we are painting the town red and the sky white with the light of the stars. gray and deep are apportioned to an extra touch of colour. then we give a brushstroke to the night clothes and more, and only when the sun says good morning and gets hold of its place we go and say good night. are you still sitting down there? draw the curtains. the gaieties have to be found by you. just hold on there and bring them along with you, just hold on there and bring them along with you. we are painting the town red and the sky white with the light of the stars. gray and deep are apportioned to an extra touch of colour. then we give a brushstroke to the night clothes and more, and only when the sun says good morning and gets hold of its place we go and say good night.
Vi maler byen rød
Du hænger lidt med ho'det, syn's du alt er gråt i gråt?
Ja, jeg kender jo turen, det' klart, du ved det godt
Men glem det et sekund, lad det fordufte i det blå
Grib din egen palet, for nu ska' vi lægge farverne på
Vi maler byen rød og himlen hvid af stjerneskær
Det grå og triste får en ekstra farveklat
Så gi'r vi nattens tøj et penselstrøg og gerne fler'
Og først når solen si'r godmorgen og ta'r fat
Si'r vi godnat
De briller, du har på, kan farve tingene, der sker
Så ka' du ikke få øje på glæder, andre ser
Men du må låne mine et par timer, hvis du vil
Tag og se dig omkring, luk øjnene op, spring ud og slå til
Vi maler byen rød og himlen hvid af stjerneskær
Det grå og triste får en ekstra farveklat
Så gi'r vi nattens tøj et penselstrøg og gerne fler'
Og først når solen si'r godmorgen og ta'r fat
Si'r vi godnat
Sidder du stadig derinde
Ruller gardinerne ned
Glæderne, dem skal man finde
Bare hæng i og ta' med
(Bare hæng i og ta' med)
Vi maler byen rød og himlen hvid af stjerneskær
Det grå og triste får en ekstra farveklat
Så gi'r vi nattens tøj et penselstrøg og gerne fler'
Og først når solen si'r godmorgen og ta'r fat…
Ja, først når solen ѕi'r godmorgen og ta'r fat
Si'r vi godnаt
Estamos pintando la ciudad de rojo Estás un poco colgando con la cabeza, ¿crees que todo es gris en gris? Sí, conozco el viaje, claro, tú lo conoces bien. Pero olvídalo por un segundo, deja que se evapore en el azul. Coge tu propia paleta, porque ahora vamos a aplicar los colores. Pintamos la ciudad de rojo y el cielo de blanco con la luz de las estrellas. Lo gris y triste recibe un toque extra de color Luego le damos una pincelada a la ropa de la noche y más' Y sólo cuando el sol dice buenos días y se afianza ¿Digamos buenas noches? Las gafas que usas pueden colorear las cosas que suceden. Entonces no puedes ver las alegrías que otros ven. Pero puedes tomar prestado el mío por unas horas si quieres. Mira a tu alrededor, abre los ojos, salta y ataca. Pintamos la ciudad de rojo y el cielo de blanco con la luz de las estrellas. Lo gris y lo triste reciben un toque extra de color Luego le damos una pincelada a la ropa de la noche y más' Y sólo cuando el sol dice buenos días y se afianza ¿Digamos buenas noches? ¿Sigues sentado ahí? Baja las cortinas Las alegrías hay que encontrarlas. Solo aguanta y llévalo contigo (Solo aguanta y llévalo contigo) Pintamos la ciudad de rojo y el cielo de blanco con la luz de las estrellas. Lo gris y lo triste reciben un toque extra de color Luego le damos una pincelada a la ropa de la noche y más' Y sólo cuando el sol dice buenos días y se afianza... Sí, sólo cuando el sol dice buenos días y se afianza ¿Digamos buenas noches?
unforgettable funny song. was this Danish style of music over since the nineties? in any case, this song is the last Danish success in the ESC eighties.
this song was ahead all along the casting of votes till at last spain, cyprus, switzerland, greece and germany gave it no points and then it ended up to come in third, to be third ((x xxxto becomexxxthirdxxxxx x))

VIM PARAR AQUI PELA WIKIPEDIA OQ ACONTECEU
it looks a bit like denmark 86
Ok, so the gimmick with Krogsgard joining the gang on stage midway through the song is a bit cheesy, but who cares - the entire song and performance are cheesy, charming, and innocently fun. I just wish the director had shown us the nuances of the staging: the singer waving to the conductor, the conductor going "what? me?" and then starting to conduct again on stage - all of this is lost due to the static photography. Shame.

what a year, Sweden, Spain and Denmark should have been tied 1st place, not that Yugoslavia
Fuld pøls
Old-fashioned even 30 years ago.
Nope.
No.
Very 1950s.
Not at all 😂
Better then rock me
What's the song about? Because "Were painting the town red" gives me communist vibes, and idk if that'd have been allowed back then.
I think honestly it’s about love, red’s a colour associated with love and loving one another, she’s talking about turning a bad situation into a loving one if you read the lyrics.
Plus Denmark is one of the last countries you’d consider communist, red was just a popular colour that year costume wise too.
@@smophie6260Thanks for the explanation ^^
Pas mal mais surnoté à mon avis. Un top 10 surement mais pas un top 3
Show for a old Danish people's cruise.
Javier Fernández Abad .. to heaven.. and young Danish people are singing it, too, these days. It’s a classic.
