The album kicks off with the very catchy Get Me High. Simon sings: “I don’t need a prime time TV show to get me high” – it was such a show that brought him fame so can he do without it?
Yesterday evening, Denmark’s largest market, the Hjallerup Marked, ended with a performance of Simon Mathew who represented Denmark in Belgrade just a week ago. We are proud to bring you videos and a large selection of pictures from yesterday's concert.
Today the Danish representative, Simon Mathew, celebrates his 25th birthday. It happens to be the day of the 2nd Danish rehearsal and on the following press conference he was greeted with three birthday songs, an English, a Danish and a Serbian one.
Simon Mathew, who will represent Denmark at the Eurovision Song Contest in Belgrade, is touring in Denmark and Sweden up until leaving for Belgrade. Last night EuroVisionary was present at one of these concerts to check whether or not he is ready.
It is not common for the Danish participants to do much promotion abroad and this year won’t be any different. Up until leaving for the Eurovision Song Contest Simon Mathew will be touring in Denmark, a tour that will continue once he is back from Belgrade.
Simon Mathew won a bit unexpectly the Danish final, but having previously won both a musical talent show and a dancing program maybe we shouldn't be surprised if he does well in Belgrade as well with the song called All Night Long.
It was a coincidence, but couldn’t have been planned better as the Dutch docu-soap with Gerard Joling and Gordon as the main characters started just as I arrived to the Netherlands. I must admit that I don’t know whether I should laugh or cry.
