Delegation of Denmark have released the following;

Lighthouse X take on Eurovision with
a message of love, diversity and respect:
“Europe, let’s all be Soldiers of Love”

Lighthouse X meet & greet Eurovillage

Lighthouse X (pronounced ‘ten’) is a Danish pop group on a mission to change the world for the better. Tomorrow they will take the stage at the Ericsson Globe, and with their participation in the Eurovision Song Contest, they hope to help unite the continent, as they invite everyone in Europe to become Soldiers of Love. It is the quintessential Lighthouse X song – their battle hymn – and no other song captures the band’s message of love and hope and their vision of a better world as strongly as this one.

Lighthouse X was founded on the belief that music can make a significant difference in the world. That music can open minds and hearts across all ages, genders and languages. That music can truly unite people.

This belief in the power of music has been incorporated into their song Soldiers of Love, which led them to victory in the national song contest.

Press Conference with Lighthouse X from Denmark

Inspired by the Paris attacks
Now they are ready to represent Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm, and they invite everyone in Europe to become Soldiers of Love. The continent needs more compassion, and Lighthouse X hope that their song can help unite Europe.

Soldiers of Love has a very strong source of inspiration:

“It was written the day after the terrorist attacks in Paris in November 2015. The song isn’t explicitly about the attack, but the feeling of sorrow and despair we shared with our fellow European citizens stressed the need to write a song about unity and humanity – and how we have to fight hatred with love. It’s the only way forward.”

“This is our battle hymn”
Explaining how important the song is to Lighthouse X, the band states the following:

“It is the quintessential Lighthouse X song. No other song captures our message of love and hope and our vision of a better world as strongly as this one. So it’s a very important song to us, and when we perform it live, it feels truly empowering. We’re the soldiers of love, and this is our battle hymn.”


Søren Bregendal, Johannes Nymark and Martin Skriver were all close friends when they decided to form Lighthouse X back in 2012. They realized they all shared the urge to make music with a strong, positive message, so they decided to join their musical forces and form a band.
