Vuggevise
Denmark was represented by Ellen Winther, with the song '" Vuggevise", at the 1962 Eurovision Song Contest, which took place on 18 March in Luxembourg City. "Vuggevise" was chosen as the Danish entry at the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix on 11 February. Six songs had been lined up to participate in the 1962 DMGP, but "Jeg snakker med mig selv", a swing-style song to be performed by Gitte Hænning, was disqualified before the event in an exceptionally strict interpretation of pre-performance rules, when the song's composer was heard whistling the melody in the canteen of broadcaster DR. It is widely believed in Danish Eurovision circles that "Jeg snakker med mig selv" would have won that year's DMGP, and would also have done much better at Eurovision than the song which was ultimately sent.

Countries In The Eurovision Song Contest 1962
A country is a distinct part of the world, such as a state, nation, or other political entity. It may be a sovereign state or make up one part of a larger state. For example, the country of Japan is an independent, sovereign state, while the country of Wales is a component of a multi-part sovereign state, the United Kingdom. A country may be a historically sovereign area (such as Korea), a currently sovereign territory with a unified government (such as Senegal), or a non-sovereign geographic region associated with certain distinct political, ethnic, or cultural characteristics (such as the Basque Country).

Most sovereign states, but not all countries, are members of the United Nations. The largest country by area is Russia, while the smallest is ...
