I'm not giving up! I thought they could, but I now I'm realistic, because I see they were not hyped by press like Lena did or Conchita this year, although Ela also is a very funny and person. The song is not bad and I think they will do a good performance tomorrow. Sad how the people talk this entry down. :(

They still have a chance to redeem themselves tomorrow.

This was in my opinion always going to be much stronger in the televote then it was with the jury and even though some commentators appear to be saying different I still believe that ;)

Aren't they allowed to petition the EBU to allow them to use the first dress rehearsal from earlier today if technical issues occur :confused:

Apparently they were having the same issue in the first dress rehearsal today too so even if they were allowed to use that one it wouldn't make a difference they still get covered :(

That would make me very nervous for tomorrow :eek:

Can't they just get rid of it? And why is this happening for the second time? :O

I thought it was really sad when I saw that picture. They didn't deserve that. (Well, no one does!)

Also I don't think this is that bad though. I don't think it'll end last. I bet some televoters will vote for it.

What the ****? :lol:

Pretty much my reaction as well. Talk about overkill. It looks like a scene from Ghostbusters 2.

I was in Cologne at USFD and the girls were simply the best this evening - I really love the song but there were actually two that I loved more ...
"like lovers do" & "Cotton candy hurricane" tbh ... I can't tell if those would do better.

GermanBango ..... There is nothing wrong with sticking to the winner of your USF.... sometimes Europe just doesn't like it even though it's a huge hit in your own country....

I saw the show USFD on the internet the audience was crazy with Eliza........ and so was most German voters too, so you picked the right one .... If it doesn't go well then Im sure Germany will be back with another great song next year

Do the streamers/ribbons really add much to the performance :?

It already messed up both rehearsals the day before the final including the most important one. Perhaps as Miloutchi said its best to just get rid of it altogether and let the catchiness of the song and Elżbieta's natural spunk speak for itself xshrug

Maybe flashs of pyro in its place would achieve the same effect...have they tried that xthink

They should do it exactly like that in the final. This way they at least have a slight chance of being remembered after the Austrian entry :lol:

I had a pessimistic view on our German entry already but after reading the last few pages here it seems even more hopeless. This "streamer desaster" might be another brick on the road to last place. Or they do it on purpose because the last place is more likely to be remembered than second or third last.

After two horribly bad years we should work with Stefan Raab again in 2015 and "rise like a phoenix out of the ashes". Just my humble opinion.

You might get 8-12 from us. Your song is promoted in our TV (TVP1, TVP2, 4funTV), Ela has got Polish roots and speaks Polish well. I think I will vote for you tonight :) Do the same, please xkiss Would be nice to see :de:-:pl: 12's exchange ;)

We tried that in 2003, but I think that doesn't work :lol: I like your song really much and I think if our jury won't boycott it, it'll get some points from us. Thank you for your support xhug
