Austria AUSTRIA 2021 - Vincent Bueno - Amen

[escYOUnited]

Amen, I guess
You said that it's time for us to put
Our love to rest
Dressed in black, you left my neighborhood

No, I never thought you'd bury me and you
No, I never thought we'd die

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen

I bet it's just another funeral to you
But for me it's the end
A marching band are playing gone too soon

No, I never thought you'd bury me and you
No, I never thought we'd die

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?

'Cause it all feels like you didn't even try
Oh try, oh try, try to save us
All this time wasted on a lie

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen, yeah
Are you getting what you wanted?
Are you getting what you wanted?
Amen​

Feel free to have my share, I have had quite enough of God for several lifetimes - as, imo, many others here might have.

No offense to (borderline) Christian pop though, it can be exciting when done right, and Molitva is a masterpiece for sure.

Unfortunately religion can go in two directions, one very bad one that is unfortunately way too common

Anyhow, regardless of where one stands on the religious topic, I still think that both believers, agnostics and atheists alike can enjoy a song with religious motives if it's done in a good way (but I guess that's the case for all music in the end of the day).

Talking about star power, guess who’s black in the house? Queen

Since ticks isn't allowed due to ebu rules to bring every devil, demon, 2 demons

I think you personally make up for all that. Tix should just perform with your forum posts.

Eberhard Forcher on FB after criticism and suspicion of religious content

"Who said something about religious content?"

The song will be released the week after next week.

"Woke" mob being triggered by the word "Amen" already trolling on social media even before hearing the song, "forcing" the team to confirm it has no religious content... sad and weird times...

He is probably not reading or doesn't have time to read all comments on social media, but I'm learning from my mistakes. I want to be the best version of myself. I don't have anything nice to say about the song or him, so i will avoid this topic. I wish him all the best though.

If you're crappy and you know it, sing amen.
If you're crappy and you know it, sing amen.
if you're crappy and you know it and you really wanna show it.

So you heard the song already?

No babe, but i have 0.0% expectations from him. And he is not my favorite. This title screams bad idea from the beginning. I just don't want to engage too much in him. I've promised him one thing. And since then i don't have any direct message to him.

I also have low expectations based on what I heard from him so far in combo with most of the entries the Austrian delegation comes up with, but I can't say I dislike a song I never heard obviously (although I don't think it'll end up being to my liking anyways).

The title doesn't disturb me though what so ever and I feel sorry for people triggered by the word Amen.

 

[Schlagerman1]

It took 25 years then for the title "Amen" to come back:

Well I don't mind it either, it depends on how the song sounds like and how the "Amen" is used. I hope for something more energetic than last year.

That would make the first dadaist song on the ESC stage.

Soundgarden, one of the best bands ever. RIP, Chris Cornell.

It's funny how some people are shading him before even listening to the song

Oh, for some it has never been about the song, not this year, not last year.

If this actually will be Christian Pop I'm all here for it if it's done in a nice way, problem is I'm not sure Vincent is capable of doing good music, his 2020 entry was pretty awful so I'll have to wait and see.

One of my favorite songs ever is what I guess could be labeled as "Christian Pop", but yeah that's a female vocalist and I highly doubt Vincent would come up with something this nice.

... anyways, I doubt it will be blatantly religious, probably will just use the word Amen but not a deeper meaning to it.

the new song was not written by vincent bueno.

 

[marty]

maybe AMEN is a shortcut for something. it is written in big letters. i am very sure that ORF would not choose a song with religious content. perhaps it connects different religions but for sure it is not a christian song. never ever Enerhard Forcher would go for such a song.

 

[Lindon]

I really don't know what you mean by that.
