In first show they sang Katy Perry’s Fireworks and in the second show they mixed The Time Of My Life from Dirty Dancing with Justin Bieber’s Baby.

Saturday the band will perform in Bochum, Germany.

The song has reached gold status with 15,000 singles sold and the evedince for this, the gold record will be handed out to the band Sunday afternoon in the Copenhagen shopping mall Fields.

This song is dedicated to their fans on Facebook and Twitter and several of these fans also take part in the video as the band used their Facebook page to invite everyone to come and make this video with them. The band will also give a little performance in the shopping mall, which includes Thomas, Tim’s duet partner, as a special guest. After the performance they will take their time to sign autographs and meet the fans, which means so much to them, that they wrote a song to them.
