GERMANY 2013 - Cascada - Glorious

Re: GERMANY 2013

Schlager? Hell no! It's most of the time just horrible and the only image that comes to my mind is this:

There is a lot of good music in German, but not Schlager. That's at least the opinion of the majority of the young people. I don't know anyone < 60 who actually listens to this stuff.

Have you ever been to Ballermann or some other (youth) tourists location? Suppose not. Most of that is, however, not the kind of Schlager I would like to see chosen for ESC.

This song is great and I like Bakkushan.

Indeed a very good song, but I like their "Springwut" (they participated in "Bundesvision Song Contest" with it) a bit more.

Anyway, Bakkushan is a great band.

Oh yeah, Springwut is also a great song.

Luxuslärm would be a great group for ESC. One of my lovely songs of them is "1000 km bis zum Meer"

Re: GERMANY 2013

Could Modern Talking ever participate?

I don´t think so - they seperated in 2003 and the chance for a reunion is very small...

Re: GERMANY 2013

There won´t be a cooperation between ARD and Pro7 in 2013... (The cooperation started in 2010 with "Unser Star für Oslo". "Unser Song für Deutschland" and "unser Star für Baku" followed.)

Re: GERMANY 2013

I´m looking forward to the new concept.

Re: GERMANY 2013

This is due to the low ratings this year. It is unfortunate in some ways as Germany became a Eurovision Power house over the past few years but also exciting cause I'm not a big fan of the Idol style shows so hopefully having "real" artists will get a chance to represent Germany. But I truly hope they don't go back to the concept from 2008 and before, something in between would be nice.

Agree! "Real" artists thank you! But yup, hopefully they learned from most disasters prior "Lena" though.

I still secretly wish and cross fingers that Bundesvision will be the selection method finally, if not this time around, maybe for 2014.

Re: GERMANY 2013

This is only possible from 2014 on, because Bundesvision is sent in Pro7. But you are right, perhaps the next time, I agree with this concept.

Re: GERMANY 2013

I would prefer a song like this one from "Luxuslärm" - 4th place at Bundesvision Songcontest.

Yes, it's not bad and I think it could actually work.

These were my favourites at this year's Bundesvision (in no particular order):

I thought their performance was great!

Bundesvision performance (it's really annoying Pro7 always has those deleted on YouTube).

Bundesvision performance. It's a little on the boring side, but not bad overall.

I also really like Vierkanttretlager and their performance stood out, but I prefer their rockier songs.

Bundesvision performance.

Re: GERMANY 2013

Kraftklub would work IMO. They have great lyrics AND awesome beats+riffs... With a song like 'Songs für Liam' they would blow Sweden away

Yeah, I think it could totally work. Apparently the Goethe Institute sent them on a tour through Colombia last month and from the videos it seems like the crowd loved them.
