Singer and songwriter Malte Ebert has decided to remove the song 'En ild der altid brænder' from all streaming services.
This appears from a post on Ebert's Instagram profile. ( https://www.instagram.com/p/DfPu59ftLtg/ )
The song was part of the criticized TV 2 program 'Alle elsker Rasmus', which was taken down last Saturday ( https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/tv-2-fjerner-alle-elsker-rasmus-efter-massiv-kritik ).
In the post, Malte Ebert, who has apologized to Rasmus Wallbridge and for his participation in the program, writes that the song should not have been released.
- The song was originally written for my fiancée and not for the series. It therefore has a personal meaning for me. But that does not change the fact that it is now associated with a program I cannot stand by, Ebert writes.

TV 2 has launched an investigation
------------------------------
Earlier this afternoon, it emerged that the program is to be investigated internally at TV 2 ( https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/seneste/tv-2-s-interne-kontrollant-og-juraafdeling-skal-undersoege-alle-elsker-rasmus ).
In the making of the program, Wallbridge was subjected to a four-month-long prank where he thought he was going to make his first feature film. Instead, he became the main character in his own program, which has since been accused of being adult bullying.
149 people – including Malte Ebert and Rasmus Wallbridge's friend and collaborator Martin Johannes Larsen – contributed to the hoax.
------------------------------------
What is 'Alle elsker Rasmus' about?
------------------------------------
* The TV 2 program follows comedian and actor Rasmus Wallbridge through a four-month-long TV experiment, primarily recorded with hidden cameras.
* All participants are part of a process where everyone except Rasmus knows the premise. A total of 149 of Rasmus Wallbridge's friends and acquaintances, as well as a number of celebrities, take part in the hoax.
* A central part of the story is the prospect of getting the opportunity to develop a film, which is a big dream for Rasmus.
* Only after the recordings has he had the opportunity to decide whether the process should be made public.
