"Fra Mols Til Skagen" (English translation: "From Mols To Skagen") was the Danish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1995, performed in Danish by Aud Wilken.

The song was performed nineteenth on the night (following Sweden's Jan Johansen with "Se på mej" and preceding Slovenia's Darja Švajger with "Prisluhni Mi"). At the close of voting, it had received 92 points, placing 5th in a field of 23.

The song is a love ballad, with Wilken singing about her desire to be with her lover - she asks him to tell her when the trains are leaving, so that she can be with him, for example. The title of the song comes from her description of the breadth of her feelings about him - "From Mols to Skagen I'm missing you". Mols is located in eastern Jutland, with Skagen being the northernmost town in the country, so the pair of locations span the entirety of Denmark.
Musically, the song is comparatively slow as against the increasingly up-tempo Contest entries. As a result of this, it is fondly remembered by many Danish fans.

Despite the successful placement of the song, Denmark did not participate in the 1996 Contest, as the qualification rules had been changed to require "all" competing countries barring the host nation to qualify - something the Danes were unable to accomplish. The performance was, however, enough to qualify Denmark as one of the entrants in the next Contest. Hence, it was succeeded as Danish representative at the 1997 Contest by Kølig Kaj with "Stemmen I Mit Liv".
