00:00Lise Reine, yeah, and Pilu Aspek, and Negolai Kabel, you look absolutely fantastic, the three of you.
00:09So do you.
00:10Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:11So, we just had the executive, the big boss out here, and he told us there will be like 180 million viewers.
00:19Feeling the pressure?
00:20No, it's okay.
00:22It's okay.
00:23Is that a lot? Is that what you're saying? 180 million?
00:26Well, we're 5 million in Denmark, so when we have huge ratings in Denmark, we have 2 million viewers.
00:33So, yeah.
00:34It is quite a big task, but to be honest, we feel ready, and we're very excited in a very good way.
00:40Yeah.
00:41Oh, that's good to hear.
00:42Lise, you're no stranger to hosting song contests.
00:45You're like a steady element in the Danish X-Factor.
00:49How is this different?
00:51It is bigger, as Ulla just said, and it feels bigger in every way,
00:55and I think the really beautiful thing about this is that there's so much love around it.
01:01People are extremely excited about it and very enthusiastic,
01:05and we just really, really want to do our best to make people proud.
01:09Yes.
01:10That's wonderful.
01:11You are already making us proud, and it's a 3-0.
01:14I mean, that is something new.
01:15A lot of times it doesn't really work on TV.
01:18Have anyone told you that?
01:19That it's dangerous to be three people, Nicolai.
01:21So what you're saying is one of us has to leave.
01:23Pretty much.
01:24Okay, Pilu, get out.
01:26We know who.
01:28Where I come from, it works.
01:31It works being three.
01:32Well, that sort of sets Pilu in the right light.
01:34Let's not get more into that.
01:36But Nicolai, actually, you are a trained classical pianist.
01:41I am so.
01:42So why does a classical musician get into the Eurovision Song Contest?
01:48Well, the Eurovision Song Contest is a lot of things.
01:51It's also a lot of big feelings.
01:53It's a huge community who loves this music,
01:58which really gathers a lot of people and a lot of love
02:01and a lot of, as I said, big feelings.
02:04It's a party.
02:05I know you've been working extremely hard for many, many, many days
02:10to make the shows as outstanding as possible.
02:13But have you had any time to listen to any of the entries?
02:17And do you have a favorite?
02:19I have a favorite, but I'm not allowed to say which one it is.
02:23But I must say the Danish delegation is standing right there.
02:27And that's in the heart, man.
02:28That's home base, yeah.
02:31So is it just work 24-7,
02:34or do you have time to have fun together as well?
02:37Oh, it's work and fun.
02:39And seriously, it's hard to separate.
02:43It is a lot of fun.
02:44And seriously, I just love it.
02:47It's an amazing time.
02:48I have to ask this beautiful piece of man, Nicolai, a question.
02:53Nicolai, you are used to hosting classical radio shows
02:56playing Mozart and Bach and all that stuff.
03:00This is a bit different when we're talking music, right?
03:03Are you actually a fan of the type of music being played at this event?
03:06I'm a fan of the feeling.
03:08And actually, I'm a fan of many of the songs as well.
03:11I love.
03:12And in Pillow's contract, it says he's not allowed to point out a favorite.
03:16I'm not either, actually.
03:17But I love the Swedish song.
03:19I really love the Swedish song.
03:22I like the Danish one as well.
03:23You got out of that one nice and neatly, Nicolai.
03:28Well, the three of you, I wish you the best of luck.
03:31And I cannot wait to see you on that fantastic stage.
03:35The stage is amazing, but you put the dot on the I, I think.
03:39Thanks so much for joining us here.
03:41I'll let you get...
