I don't feel hate
I just feel sorry
You feel so very clever whenever you find another way to wear me down
But I don't feel hate
I just feel sorry
So you can wiggle with that middle finger, it'll never wiggle back to you
'Cause I don't feel

Sorry

I really don't care (ah, ah-ah) that you want to bash me (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Do it with flair and I'll let you be (I'll let you be common Eileen)
But don't you dare (don't you dare), mmm, to get angry (to get angry)
When you realize those words just don't hit me
What?

'Cause I don't feel hate
I just feel sorry
You feel so very clever whenever you find anothеr way to wear me down
But I don't feel hate
I just feel sorry
So you can wigglе with that middle finger, it'll never wiggle back to you
'Cause I don't feel hate

Sorry

I really don't mind (ah, ah-ah) to be your rival (ah-ah, ah-ah)
'Cause for your kind it's essential for survival (say what? He did not just say that)
Yes, I did (yes, I did), and I feel sorry (so sorry)
I don't feel hate, that's the whole point of this song (that's the song)
I guess you need patronization as some kind of validation
You won't cope with the frustration that your random me-fixation
Is another affirmation that you're just a hateful person
Who's not really better than me

Tap break, uh

I don't feel hate (don't feel hate)
I just feel sorry (I just feel sorry)
You feel so very clever whenever you find another way to wear me down (wear me down)
Meine Damen und Herren
But I don't feel hate (no, no, no)
Das war's mit "I Don't Feel Hate"
I just feel sorry (just feel sorry)
Ich hoffe, Sie haben noch ein derbe nices Leben, und bis bald
So you can wiggle with that middle finger, it'll never wiggle back to you (wiggle, wiggle, wiggle you)
'Cause I don't feel hate (no, no, no, no)
I just feel sorry (I just feel sorry)
You feel so very clever whenever you find another way to wear me down (don't wear me down)
But I don't feel hate (I don't feel hate)
I just feel sorry (I just feel sorry)
So you can wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle you (wiggle, wiggle, wiggle you)
'Cause I don't feel​

To be honest, there's a slight chance this Jendrik song is like... so outrageously bad the only logical response is to laugh at it's iconic terriblenes, and embracing it ironically.

The question is do I hate myself enough to do that, hmm???

Well, I laughed at the sudden manic drop. The song could very well end how you described it, being so bad that it's actually enjoyable ironically. The whistle bit though reminds me of kitchen adverts (or just adverts in general because they're all made to be as triggering as possible these days).

Apparently, that snippet has not been taken from the demo. Radio stations have been asked to not play the full version before Saturday.

They are funny... As if a radio station would like to play this sh....

Tumblr, mostly.

It inadvertantly reminds me of that task they had on The Apprentice 5, the one where they had to shoot breakfast cereal commercials and Phillip browbeats everyone into using a mascot named 'Pantsman' ("e's great cuz he's not wearin' any pants, just on his head!!"), while the rest just cringed and rolled they eyes, knowing Sir Alan would fire him the second he set a foot in the boardroom. This song is the equivalent of that, and like TAUK5's Philip, really tiptoes the line between 'awful' and 'so awful you almost have to respect it.'

Jendrik is Pantsman.

Oh my goodness. I completely forgot about that moment. I haven't watched The Apprentice in years but I certainly remember that scene in the recording studio. You're so right. This is basically Jendrik Sigwart's song. Give it to us all now.


My favourite task in The Apprentice was when Alan (I think this was done throughout multiple seasons) would have them go onto shopping channels to sell products. That was always a laugh.

Dear Europe,
Dear escunited,

Hereby I sincerely apologise for my country kicking off the musical apocalypse in May.


Part of the lyrics:
I don't feel hate*
I just feel sorry
So you can wiggle with the middle finger
It'll never wiggle about you
'cause I don't feel...

These lyrics evoke a different business-based reality show for me:

And for a whole bunch of other reasons. I'm so ready to hand out my first 0 of the season. Everything about this seems genuinely wretched. This is so exciting. When the whistling started in the snippet, I just burst out laughing and said "oh god, @RainyWoods is going to hate this, and so am I." What a privilege. I can't wait.

My favourite was when they had to sell candles and they decided to charge £40 for a candle as a base line price, and we all laughed at how ridiculous that price was and how no one would spend that on a candle - forgetting they were selling them in Central London where £40 was considered reasonable. I'd have liked to have seen them try that on the mean streets of Northern England. :lol:

I think it will be my first :0: this season as well and it's such a horrible feeling that it's my own country + we - as fans and viewers - had no say in it.

Seriously, I was ranting about Norway giving away a surefire Top 10 entry by not making KEiiNO win.. But now I wish I was Norwegian.... "Fallen Angel" is like a poem by Goethe compared to this...

Whoever thought of placing that whistle and the utterly horrendous instrumental part in that song deserves to be thrown into one of these mud vulcanoes in Qobustan.

Oh gosh - I need to wake up in 4 hours and 40 minutes.
I think I got traumatized.. By a fucking snippet. Yes, it is THAT bad.

Wish me luck I won't get haunted by whistles and an ukulele in my dreams.

Dear, you need to sleep. There will be plenty of time for wiggling about with Jendrik's middle finger in a couple of days. For now your health and education are the most important thing. Good night and Godney bless you xheart

This can't be real
How have they gone through such an incredibly convoluted selection process that literally involves hundreds of juries and takes several months to end up sending.......... that?

Same question here. But then again Juries have messed up in the past so much that I shouldn't wonder.

I am happy that I have Japanese blood in me. I pretend fot this ESC season to not be German but Japanese. Then I don't have to be ashamed of my country. :whistle: By the way, I slept actually pretty well. I actually don't know how I managed that.

I floated the explanation with myself that this might just be a reverse-Serbia/Croatia 2017, where they find the very best snippet they can to build hype, but instead, they're trying to lower our expectations with this snippet. The problem is that there's absolutely no coming back from this. There is no good song that could possibly feature that snippet.

Maybe the Schreiber-team was envious of UK having the last place in 2019 and wants to reconquer the place back?
