Denmark was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1989 with the song "Vi maler byen rød", composed by Søren Bundgaard, with lyrics by Keld Heick, and performed by Birthe Kjær. The Danish participating broadcaster, Danmarks Radio (DR), organised the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 1989 in order to select its entry for the contest. This was the first Kjær's victory at the DMGP after three runner-up finishes earlier in the 1980s.
