My last one for this season. Need to hurry over to Season 362 and start listening. UkingViking suggested that I did this one, and I was also considering it myself already as it is such an iconic danish song, so here is Denmark's Eurovision winner from 1963. Jørgen and Grethe Ingemann's 'Dansevise'. Maybe the only time a Jazzy tune has won the Eurovision. This was too difficult to figure out, so this time I have kept it nice and short.
I think you should see the original as well just for the sake of it. Featuring a lovely Gibson ES-175 arch top guitar.

If anyone would like to know what the song is about, then here is a (quite poor) translation as taken from the internet:

Dance Ballad
A ray of sunshine in a puddle
A little kiss on the cheek from a wind
And the rush, humming
That life's beginning
It's a web in your mind
A whistle of silver from a treetop
A faint sound of a cat grabbing
A ripple in the stream
A whisper in the hedge
That says, that it isn't night anymore
The meadow is wet with dew
Lady Dawn goes to bed
Day gets up playfully
And crossing the bridge of the sun
And the two of us?
What about the two of us?
Yes, what about the two of us, you and me?
I'm dancing and dancing and stopping
And sensing only you
Why ever did you run away?
Come back, come back
Come back, you my beloved friend
Come back, come back
Wherever you wish, are we dancing to
Come, let us dance
Everything can happen
Come, let us dance
Let us dance, let us laugh
despite the fact that this is not true Scandinavian song (“Cemetery”, Boris Grebenshchikov / Aquarium).
