Despite winning the 1998 Home Composed, Morten Boldt Hansen of Denmark did not organise the following year's event; he was due to go travelling, and this naturally meant that he was unable to meet the commitments of arranging the competition. Alon Shanni of Israel, being the 1998 runner-up, was offered the task; however, following some confusion over plans for the structure of the contest - including the possibility of national pre-selections - in the end it was Martin Faulkner of the United Kingdom who fulfilled the role of organiser in 1999.
Despite winning the [[Home Composed Song Contest 1998|1998 contest]], [[Morten Boldt Hansen]] of [[Denmark in the Home Composed Song Contest|Denmark]] did not organise the following year's event; he was due to go travelling, and this naturally meant that he was unable to meet the commitments of arranging the competition. Alon Shanni of [[Israel in the Home Composed Song Contest|Israel]], being the 1998 runner-up, was initially offered the task. However, following some confusion over plans for the structure of the contest, including the possibility of national pre-selections - something which, in the interests of inclusivity, Home Composed has still never implemented even today - in the end it was [[Martin Faulkner]] of the [[United Kingdom in the Home Composed Song Contest|United Kingdom]] who stepped up to fulfil the role of 1999 organiser.
A record number of songs took part this year - 17 in total. (Although 18 songs were entered in 1997, two were withdrawn before the voting and a further two were disqualified after the contest.) Ten participating composers from six countries were represented, with newcomers Achim Wurm, Peter Reinders and Ronald Groenhuizen expanding the Home Composed family further. To read the lyrics of each entry, you can click on the corresponding title in the song list below.
 
The voting created some interesting statistics. It was "oh so close" for Christina Irving - her entry "It's Over" led from the early stages, but it was her own jury, voting last, which eventually handed victory to Tony Søgaard Olsen's "Denne sommer". For Tony, this was a particularly memorable achievement - not only was it his second win, it was also only his second participation in the contest, making for a 100% strike rate so far! The result also further highlighted the dominance of Scandinavia in the Home Composed Song Contest - in the eight contests to date, only once had the title been won by anyone other than Norway, Sweden and Denmark...

Contest overview

Despite winning the 1998 contest, Morten Boldt Hansen of Denmark did not organise the following year's event; he was due to go travelling, and this naturally meant that he was unable to meet the commitments of arranging the competition. Alon Shanni of Israel, being the 1998 runner-up, was initially offered the task. However, following some confusion over plans for the structure of the contest, including the possibility of national pre-selections - something which, in the interests of inclusivity, Home Composed has still never implemented even today - in the end it was Martin Faulkner of the United Kingdom who stepped up to fulfil the role of 1999 organiser.

A record number of songs appeared on the scoreboard this year - 17 in total. (Although 18 songs were entered in 1997, two were withdrawn during the voting and a further two were disqualified after the contest.) Ten participating composers from six countries were represented, with newcomers Achim Wurm, Peter Reinders and Ronald Groenhuizen expanding the Home Composed family further.

From an organisational point of view, this year the countries with multiple entrants were referred to as (e.g.) "Denmark A" and "Denmark B" for the purposes of the competition, bringing to an end the era of the organisers having to try and classify entries by geographical origin instead (e.g. "United Kingdom North").

The voting created some interesting statistics. It was "oh so close" for Christina Irving - her entry "It's Over" led from the early stages, but it was her own jury, voting last, which eventually handed victory to Tony Søgaard Olsen's "Denne sommer". For Tony, this was a particularly memorable achievement - not only was it his second win, it was also only his second participation in the contest, making for a 100% strike rate so far. The result also further highlighted the dominance of Scandinavia in the early years of the Home Composed Song Contest: in the eight editions to date, only once had the title been won by someone from outside Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
