GERMANY 2013 - Cascada - Glorious

Re: GERMANY 2013

There will be a "secret and special" edition of TV Total on tuesday. Highly unlikely, but maybe they will reveal the artists there?

Never ever. The ARD ist just way too narcissistic to announce details about the upcoming national final at Pro7 in a regular show of Stefan Raab. They didn't even consider this in the last three years with Stefan Raab on board

Probably just wishful thinking, but I could imagine Sizarr participating in the national final. They have some blank fields in their tour calendar during the national final and the ESC

Re: GERMANY 2013

Sounds pretty awesome in my opinion. Well known acts like Söhne Mannheim and yet promising but unknown musicians. I like it. Good work Brainpool/NDR.

But "Der Priester" WTF? No church music, please!

Update: Woah, Lena and Loreen will be in the Jury

Cascada?! :shock:

Re: GERMANY 2013

Why not?

Re: GERMANY 2013

Why not?

They are very very well known, they had so many hits, their singer is recognizable by most of Europe! I never expected them to try to go to ESC!

Re: GERMANY 2013

Wow, this looks quite promising I am quite positively surprised to find huge names like Cascada and Söhne Mannheims on the list. Can't wait to hear the songs!

Germany has sent 3 awesome entries in the last 3 years that all achieved good results, so hopefully that will continue this year as well.

Die Priester ft. Mojca Erdmann - Ave Maris Stella

Brilliant choice!!

Re: GERMANY 2013

I do not think this looks promising at all. The only well-knowns are Söhne Mannheims and recent flop band Cascada. Also, there seems to be no song title that is in German (not sure about 'Nackert' and Lalala'). Not much of a surprise though, NDR/Brainpool hate everything German with passion.

I am listening to a few songs by Labrassbanda. Doesn't sound uninteresting even though their chances to win are probably small.

Nica & Joe (mix of music styles with Nica (pop) and Joe (classic)) have released an album with covers:

Euphoria - skilled and well ... different

Nica & Joe on Spotify

... no song title is in German (not sure about 'Nackert' and Lalala').

"Nackert" is Bavarian dialect, I'm curious how this will sound And for the rest: for Nica & Joe, Saint Lu and Söhne Mannheims; Cascada we have to see if she can sing live; the rest: have heard of some, I'm curious how the songs will sound

Re: GERMANY 2013

Cascada participating would be the most amazing thing ever! They've been one of my fave bends for like ever so I am over the top happy with these news

Re: GERMANY 2013

Wow, Cascada actually entered, that's brave

How is it brave? They're a has-been eurodance band with 1-2 hits (depending on what markets you look at) with one of these hits being a cover song. It's not as if they have something to loose.

I suppose they still have more to lose than most of the acts that plump for ESC though, they still have quite a large fanbase

I cannot speak for most other countries but sure not in Germany, Europe's most profitable market, where their albums fall out of the Top100 after one or two weeks.
