"New Tomorrow" is a 2011 English language song by Danish pop/rock band A Friend in London. It represented Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011, held in Düsseldorf, Germany. On 26 February 2011, the song won the Danish preselection contest Dansk Melodi Grand Prix in 2011. It is the first single from their debut album, Unite.
Immediately after, the single was released in Denmark, making it straight to #3 in its first week of release (chart dated 4 March 2011).
The song was used as the Labour Party's anthem for the 2013 Malta elections.
"New Tomorrow" was written and composed by Lise Cabble and Jakob Glæsner. However, even before it was chosen to represent Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest, it was accused of plagiarising several different songs, e.g. "Herz an Herz" by German NDW band Paso Doble, "Sing for Me" by Swedish singer-songwriter Andreas Johnson, "Face 2 Face" by Future Trance United, "Super Star" by Taiwanese girl band S.H.E., "Silk Road" a Chinese folk tune interpreted by Kitaro, "Yasashii Uta" by MUCC, and "Shine" by Take That.
New Tomorrow is the third studio album by the Serbian Irish folk/Celtic rock band Irish Stew of Sindidun, released in 2011.
The album was released on October 6, available both on CD, released by One Records, and in a form of multimedia application, available for free download from the band's official website.
Lyrics and music written by Bojan Petrović.
We synchronize our steps and habits
We're tied to mental chains
Why not tear them down?
We condemn pleasure and we banish laughter
In a world of cold rocks
I need human warmth!
Show me the action
Life's main attraction
The only question:
Will we and if, how will we live?
On and on and on we dig our way
We search for the treasure
On and on and on we try and turn
The key to all pleasure
On and on and on in light of day
We'll shake off the shadow
On and on and on we look ahead
Sights set on a new tomorrow
The freeze is fright'ning but I won't lose hope
That these empty eyes will vanish
They are so cold
Youth is a fire and I pray to God
That a little glow forever
