The event titled "Danmark's Længste Indsamlingsshow" (Denmark's longest fundraising show) that takes place at the 14th of August in Copenhagen is arranged by HIV i Musikken (HIV in the Music) with the purpose to raise money for a special HIV project at the Victoria lake in Uganda where a sailing clinic will be able to help poor HIV affected located at the small islands at the lake.
A long list of artists will perform in order to collect as much money for the project as possible. Among them are three former Danish Eurovision Song Contest participants and also three former particpants in the Danish final, Dansk Melodi Grand Prix:
Lise Haavik: Norwegian born Lise represented Denmark at the 1986 Eurovision Song Contest together with her Danish husband, John Hatting. The couple later split up, but back then they had quite a popular duo under the name Trax. Their '86 entry titled Du Er Fuld Af Løgn finished 11th. The duo had already participated in the Danish final in 1884 and 1985.
Thomas Thordarson: Danish-Icelandic Thomas won the Dansk Melodi grand Prix in 2004 with the latino inspired song Sig' Det Løgn. For the Eurovision Song Contest the song was performed under the English title Shame On You, where it failed to qualify for the final.
