I think this could reach #1 in German and Austrian Charts and the start of a nice carreer. But still I am very sceptical if this song can work at Eurovision. In the moment I would expect a result between 15 and 18. But with a few changes to the song, better vocals and a cool staging this can get a better result. But I hope Stefan Raab will stop saying that Germany will win Eurovision with this entry.

It's my number 1 of the songs released so far. I do also worry about it at Eurovision, based on the vocals. I think it works brilliantly as a track on Spotify but not so well as a live performance. Really hoping they can turn things around before May

Just a question: since autotune is forbidden - how much of the chorus can she actually sing herself? Because the chorus is heavily distorted.
In the final when she sang along with the playback chorus, that sounded even weirder.

I'm calling it now, this will be another last place for Germany. The song is not bad by any means but those vocals are off and will be haevily punished by both juries and televoters.

I still think Austria and Switzerland will give it around 30 points, so it will be enough to finish at least 22nd.

But this song actually has the potential to be in the top 15 as well.

Abor is so funny 😂

And that is one of my fave tracks ob their Album - even if it infuriates me as a math teacher 🤭
"Parallele Linien" is also one of my fave song of their album and I'd wished they would have chosen this song or Basel actually.

Btw. it seems that they will perform "Baller" on Saturday:


I hope she will sing as good as she did at MoMa!

Well. If I remember correctly then Lena performed Satellite in the Wok-WM 2010 with full playback, so I don't expect a life version from A+T there.

I'm upgrading from :8: to :12:, what a banger xheat If they stage this well and with decent vocals I can actually see this getting some points from the juries.

Thats probably the entry I am most looking forward to seeing live. It needs to be much better than in the NF and I wonder if Germany will manage this.

Yeah it's growing on me aswell. My biggest concern is her vocals which were not good in the national final but after that I have seen other clips where she sings way better so I think that is what will make or break this entry.

Today they peformed "Parallele Linien" on TV --- so beautiful!


Whoa, I loved this. I swear at this point I prefer every single song from their album to Baller.
I also feel like the other songs are more forgiving to Tynna's non-textbook voice, it even works in their favor.
And I always loved the lyrics of Parallele Linien.

i imagine they're probably going to fine tune an arrangement similar to the half final performance. they can also always go the sweden or subwoolfer route and basically put studio vocals all over the backing track.

I just stopped by to give 12 points here. I listened to all the Eurovision songs for the first time over the weekend and this year is a nightmare, but I liked "Baller" from the first listening. That song is definitely in my TOP3. Hope it will get some nice points in the finals!
