The initiative launched is interesting and I wonder whether it could become a success.
The communal singing we had during the semi-lockdown in the spring was a big success! And still is.
There is a weekly show every Friday, lasting an hour where various artists sing, while cutting to live clips submitted by people from all over the land, singing along at home.
I understand it has begun to really take root as a kind of weekly family tradition, or a tradition among friends when they meet. (*)
Now, if something similar could be arranged on a weekly basis, where various celebs, like Frederik and his family, led the Danes in various light exercises performed at home, again with clips submitted from the viewers, it might catch on.
And at least people would get some exercise for half and hour or an hour, and that's better than nothing.
Not least since many of us again are in a state of semi-lockdown and that lockdown will continue for a while and probably at some point being tightened even more.
(*) Historically communal singing has been very common in times of crisis.
People sing when they are scared and the world is unsafe and the future uncertain, in order to find a kind of safety or reassurance in doing something together as a group.
Like Londoners singing in the tube during the Blitz.
During the Occupation WWII the phenomenon became very widespread in DK. Here the purpose was similar: Seeking a feeling safety, but also expressing nationalism and a subtle way of expressing defiance against the occupation, because a number of favorite songs contained lines that could be interpreted very much according to the situation! - Some songs as such ended up being banned.
