Guess we will be in the bottom 5. I just hope that the last place will be reserved for someone more who deserves it - like Moldova. Natalia didn't belong into the GF anyway.
Will not happen, high points from Romania and Russia are guaranteed

In the press conference, Kirkorov was strongly suggesting he had gotten support from Greece so maybe there is something in that...

Well, I really don't feel hate. Not sure if that's because of the song or if it's just me.
Apparently the Germans thought that due to the pandemic, what we all really need now is a lighthearted and funny song. Clearly nobody else shared that thought.
This song follows the long tradition of Eurovision joke entries, which were so common in the 2000s and then started to disappear due to the juries. It's not a musical masterpiece and based on musical merit alone, I wouldn't hold it in high regard, but I do think that it's nice to have a song that tries to be funny on stage again. I really like the hand costume and the goofiness.
I'm curious how many points this will get. It doesn't look like a jury magnet but maybe there will be many televoters who think it's funny and who miss the good old Eurovision joke entries. Maybe nobody will care and it will end up at the bottom of the scoreboard. I really don't know. At least their concept means that they are prepared for things to end badly and they cannot possibly flop worse than most of the German songs in recent years that were supposedly sincere efforts to achieve good results.
I will give it 8 points because I like having a joke entry in Eurovision again and I do think they came up with creative and fun ideas, like the hand.

I‘m not sure if Jendrik will get a lot of televote points. It’s a song that many find happy and funny but does anybody call? I hope so! It’s more likely he‘ll get a small amount of points from some juries who maybe support the idea/theme of the song.
In any case, let’s celebrate how amazing Jendrik is doing former Eurovision performances (so who‘s got all of them songs right? I don’t!)

Ahhhhh Consi!!! That's why he couldn't take part in the NDR reaction videos!
Never heard of Arfmann.
Janin Ullmann? I like her but she's a TV presenter mainly. would not connect her to music even though she hosted music shows.

germany revealed the names of the jury members though this year this is not allowed before the final night.
I was wondering about Conatantin as well not being in the videos. Great to have him in the Jury!Ahhhhh Consi!!!

Consi should absolutely be the next commentator, Urban is doing this too long already.
So true! I may see the GF today on the official channel. I am not sure if I want to hear Urban today ...

Sadly Urban will do this for some more years. He´s part of the NDR clique. You know what I mean??

Anyone listening to WDR4? 40,000 people voted on their Top 50 ESC Songs, I'm having a blast
Sort of a Part 2:I‘m not sure if Jendrik will get a lot of televote points. It’s a song that many find happy and funny but does anybody call? I hope so! It’s more likely he‘ll get a small amount of points from some juries who maybe support the idea/theme of the song.

Seems like Jendrik really has his time of life!

I'll stick up for him and admit that I like Peter Urban as a commentator. Can't really image eurovision without him, his voice, and his comments about the entries.Sadly Urban will do this for some more years. He´s part of the NDR clique. You know what I mean??
