Here he was surrounded by his immediate family.
– It is with unimaginable grief that we can announce that our father, Michael Bundesen, after a short course of cancer, has passed away, it is stated in the announcement, where his children Nanna Bundesen and Nicolaj Bundesen are the senders.
The family adds that it will “ask for peace to process the grief and the huge loss Michael leaves in the hearts of all of us”.
At Michael Bundesen’s own request, only those closest to him will be invited to the funeral.
– Although it is warm to think about how many Danes he has meant something to, we appeal that this wish is respected, the family writes.
It is now almost ten years ago that Michael Bundesen had to stop as lead singer in the popular Danish pop band Shu-bi-dua.
After two blood clots in his brain, he had to admit that everything has an end – including life as a frontman in one of the country’s most popular bands.
Shu-bi-dua was formed in 1973 and has been one of the best-selling Danish bands ever.
Most Danes today can sing along to songs like “Den røde thread”, “Hvalen Hvalborg” and “Sexchikane” and many, many others.
In 2013, Michael Bundesen received the music industry’s “Honorary Award” at the annual Danish Music Awards.
