I wasn't crazy into Glorious at the time, but I don't know what happened. I feel like I might have befriended a crazy Cascada super fan at one point who owns a special mind control gun. All hail supreme goddess Natalie Cascada Horler. I find her quite fab today.

Ya welcome x

So we're rating Germanys entries earlier. Well I here I am petal.

01. Cascada - Glorious xangel

02. Roman Lobb - Standing Still
03. Michael Schulte - You Let Me Walk Alone
04. Elaiza - Is It Right
05. Lena - Satellite
06. Ann Sophie - Black Smoke
07. Levina - Perfect Life

08. S!sters - Sister
09. Jamie-Lee - Ghost
10. Lena - Taken by a Stranger


For me, Germany has been one of the weakest showers of the last decade tbh. They've had some good entries, and basically Cascada cancels out all the bad. Robbed, sabotaged, should have won x. If I was to place your entry anywhere in this list, it would be 4th. I wish you all the best with it.

Why not Nico Santos? Was he even considered in the selections? I am hooked with the song Play With Fire it could have won this years ESC

Because he is currently very successful in Germany and successful artists avoid this competition at all costs, at least in most Western countries.

I'm not always a great fan of the German entries but this is a great song, feels pretty modern and chart worthy today.

Actually I'm kind of shaken how much I like the song. I usually don't like high-pitched voices. But this rhythm is kind of infectious. I hope that the staging will live up to the song. I don't have much concern about his voice, he will nail this, but the staging? Hope it won't be too much of a cliché.

Kinda feel weird for still liking our song the best along with Switzerland's. Last time I had this was back in 2012 with Standing Still. Almost in a state where I would even accept a dead last place in the final, because screw the ESC, I like the song too much :lol:

Catchy, party song. It's actually quite infectious, so I'm impressed with the Germans (unlike last year).
Nice high voice Ben's got. It suits the song.

Good luck, Germany :)

So I can officially say, I am rooting for Germany and Israel for this year's contest (as I doubt the remaining 5 countries are coming out with entries that I will get behind). Germany and Ben better bring their A-game.

No shade but I can't believe this remained as my overall favourite so far, after all those opportunities we lost yesterday night.

Next to Georgia, Italy and Belgium, I will be rooting for my country this time. I hope they manage a great memorable staging and they could make a top 10 (hopefully) in a year full of ballads. xheart
