Germany GERMANY 2019 - S!sters - Sister

Someone apparently has never created a piece of art him/herself The salt is real.

Ironic, isn't it?! You don't know me, yet you accuse me of never having been active/creative in the art field before. If you had asked me, I had told you that I'm drawing since I can hold a pen and that I'm familiar with the process of selling your art...
If I am salty, how do you call your attitude?

It's actually quite common that artists (in all kinds of domains, especially in literature, since that is my field of work) don't want others to change their work. This is really not a point you can hold against Schreiber (I'd rather criticise the choice of songs, but oh well, what's in the past is in the past)

I'm familiar with "artistic copyrights" and I'm not blaming the composer, I'm blaming Schreiber. How can you buy a song, without asking questions?! You're buying a song for an audience of 200 million people and there could always be a part that needs customization.
Without going into too much details, you can differ between two kinds artists. Group A) They are willing to let you change their work under special circumstances. These rules are decided before you buy the end product! Group B) Those artists forbid any kind of customization. "What you see, is what you get."
If I had to buy a song for an event as big as the ESC, I would never buy a song from Group B. You're asking for troubles and if you don't know even the most basic things like these, you're incompetent... No more, no less

She scored 24 points with the juries, not that bad.

I'm confused, if she got 24 points how could she end with zero end points?!

I love how "Sister" is a Swiss reject. Oh Germany ... what have you done?
I mean, picking the worst (yes, it`s a fact. I`m sorry) out of 7 songs is a talent as well ... right? ... right?

Wasn't Austria last year a swiss reject too?

I think it's quite ironic that they got only 6 points from the Eurovision fanbubble vote, and it's this bubble that is complaining the most. Guess what, they don't really count in the end.

I don't think the bubble doesn't matter. At least I can't see any other reason why 'Fuego' did so well last year because Eleni's voice was very weak and she was all about the ESC fans hyping her performance like crazy. I think Eurovision fans are also a big part of the voting community. I really can't see Sister doing any good with the public. I can see them getting a few decent jury results (maybe!) but I think the panel predicted the outcome of the televote quite accurately (and this is why the panel exists).

But it's true, a NF with many good songs will always let someone disappointed, I wrote the same yesterday. I really wanted Aly to win and that's why I got a bit frustrated. Listening to the song again I don't think it's horrifying, I just think there were some better options. And I get really frustrated because NDR wanted to have Sisters so badly and succeeded in the end. It just has a "Geschmäckle".

That's a good omen then.

I'm waiting for Ralph Siegel to out himself as the ghostwriter of Sister so that I can allow myself to become a fan of the song.

Trying again with the entry today and my feelings are still mixed. I like them, the two girls. I think they're the best thing this entry has going for it, as despite the corniness of the package, they have this charisma about them that's quite undeniable. The song itself is already starting to grate on me though, and it's only been a day. The whole thing is cute but it's also a bit overbearing. Having said that though, it's probably 4th or 5th in my 2019 ranking at this moment (which shows you what kind of year I'm having). Maybe this entry will surprise and actually work at Eurovision, but I think they've got quite an uphill struggle ahead of them.

A combined ranking is... well, tricky when you know that did end up 1st in the televoting in 2014 and placed last with the juries. The combined placement? 15TH PLACE.

Next year y`all shall see me on that damn stage. My stage name: P!ssed. The song is obvs going to be called "Pissed" and it will be about Swiss rejects, a rigging NDR and two girls who are probably only childs screaming a song about sisterhood at each other. Be prepared for some wig snatching.

But be careful not to slip on your wig and hit your head really hard. Amnesia is not a fine thing, you might forget your lyrics.

You got my back and you can count on my vote, buddy!

"Only Teardrops" was a German reject too
But yeah, to be honest we don't really know why Switzerland rejected this song - maybe they really plan with Luca Hänni (who was taking part in the exact same songwriting camp where "Sister" was written) and he can't sing this song obviously.

Even if our Song isnt that good, we had the most exciting Voting in the NF-History.

 

[Realest]

Wow, only 44% Likes on the German ESC-Channel and 66% on the official Channel

Woah, that's not fair. Most of them probably only disliked because their favs didn't win. Even though I didn't like the song, I think we all should support them now. They're our entry now and they will represent us in Tel Aviv.

 

[GlamSIMorous]

I think its due to the fact that the videos trend in Germany and people see it and are like "Oh, Eurovision again, yeah, shit song, blah, no cool" and press dislike. Like always.

we only got ourselves to blame, It's such a shame.

Everyone has an official Video except Sisters.

This song screams Black Smoke 2.0. A nice and sweet singer on a fitting stage with an okay-ish song. Most people will have the song rather in the middle field. The Juries having it on their 11. / 12. position and we all know how it's going to end! Germany, 0 points!

I loved Black Smoke, I adored the chorus and its style was absolutely up my alley, the things going on the stage were simply wrong though. This one on the other hand. :? I have conflicting feelings, but the predominant one is that it's average. For me Aly Ryan was the best, all in all here even if she seemed slightly powerless at times. Lilly was roughly on the same level, but her vocals were actually questionable at times, and the song itself is more cerebral but without being super-hyper-extra-great so for me Aly should be given the chance. I liked the idea for the performance too unlike others. I'd be happy with any of these two all things considered.

Oh what a coincidence ... not.

 

[ESCREGION]

I can't understand why Aly Ryan with thsi masterpiece didn't win......
Bottom 5 for Deutchland??
3 points for me
