Øve os på Hinanden (Translation: "Practicing on Each Other") was the Danish entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam performed by the duo Fyr & Flamme. It was the first entry from Denmark to be performed fully in the Danish language since 1997, when the language restriction was still in place.
It was performed last in the second semifinal following Switzerland. At the close of voting, it finished in 11th place with 89 points, failing to qualify for the final for the first time since 2016.

Tiden er gået i stå
Hva' er det, vi venter på?
Dine øjne si'r det samme som mine
Så jeg sætter i
Et dansetrin
Jeg har øvet på hjemmefra
Og be'r til min skaber, at de griber mig
Rivaler spænder ben og fører krig
(På et, på et dansegulv)
Men hvis du ikke slipper mig, så letter vi
Ingen ved, hvordan man gør, så
Lad os øve os på hinanden
Lige om lidt er vi to voksnе
Du er kvinden, jeg еr manden
Hele gulvet er gået fra forstanden
La' os øve på hinanden
Tiden er gået i stå
Din kjole er lyseblå
Du si'r noget, jeg ikk' ka' høre, mens rytmen kører
Hvor hjerter svulmer op og går itu
(På et danse-, dansegulv)
Vi bli'r aldrig mere levende end lige nu
Ingen ved, hvordan man gør, så
Lad os øve os på hinanden
Lige om lidt er vi to voksne
Du er kvinden, jeg er manden
Hele gulvet er…
Time has come to a standstill
What are we waiting for?
Your eyes are the same as mine
So I put in
A dance step
I have practiced from home
And pray to my Creator that they seize me
Rivals strain legs and wage war
(On one, on a dance floor)
But if you do not let me go, we will facilitate
No one knows how to do so
Let's practice on each other
Soon we are two adults
You're the woman, I'm the man
The whole floor has gone out of its mind
Let's practice each other
Time has come to a standstill
Your dress is light blue
You say something I can not hear while the rhythm is running
Where hearts swell and break
(On a dance, dance floor)
We will never be more alive than right now
No one knows how to do so
Let's practice on each other
Soon we are two adults
You are the woman, I am the man
The whole floor is…
