Germany GERMANY 2024 - Isaak - Always on the Run

I too but more likely than not this is not going to happen given the jury love it got in the NF and also the Luxemburgish telly vote we have now. Even the mere 'record' I do not consider safe yet as I can easily see ::gb (and even ) challenging for the last place.

I still trust Olly enough with the staging/performance to be incredible and garner points for that (personally I also think "Dizzy" is a lot more modern in it's... everything, while "Always on the run" feels more dated, so I think juries will like it more anyway). Spain tho... I like "Zorra", but I don't see any Jury appeal, and it has so much competition for the televote. I could see it coming last behind Germany too.

And I don't think Germany will get a double zero, bcs some juries will reward Isaaks voice for sure. Probably not much, but definitely not a zero. Televote zero I could see tho with weak staging

I once again wished we would have send Max Mutzke, so the double zero would be possible and truly deserved!

No. Last Year only 0.62 Mio People have watched Semi 2. Semi 1 was even lower.

Oh, that's brilliant!
I still remember the late 00`s when we got like 0,2 Mio ppl maximum

I’m happy it was a printing error for you guys!! Honestly, it wouldn’t have surprised me if it was true

Back then semi-finals (even the ones had a vote in) were broadcast on a regional channel though.

I think that they did the printing error on purpose because this thread was way too cosy the past days.They wanted more action here.

Sounds like a case for "Galileo Mystery".

In what universe will Isaak's voice get rewarded and Max's won't? My guy got second with an absolute snooze fest of a song simply because he is one of the best singers we have in Germany. If you predict zero jury points for Max, we're heading towards a big fat zero in May as well.

I find Isaaks voice better than Max' and it isn't even close tbh. And while Isaaks song is very mid, at least it's not putting anyone to sleep. "Forever strong" is the worst sleeping pill in musical form I can think of - and nobody can reward a voice when they're asleep.

Wouldn't that make it the best sleeping pill? I will have to try it tonight

You're right, my mind is just stuck on it being "the worst" and "a sleeping pill"

Good luck with your nightly endeavours! Please don't blame me for possible nightmares, blame NDR

Not a single Mention of Isaak.

Honestly, if Germany wanted to attract jury votes and send a capable singer, sending Isaak is inferior to Max's choice. Even if "Forever Strong" was agony, Max's voice and experience and the effect of his return to the Eurovisual stage would have garnered a little more points from the jury and the public. Germany also managed to follow the wrong path in the "safe choice".

What made all the German fans depressed for me is the lack of courage. Isaak is worse than Newman. Where the second, in its lack of flavor, did not suggest a collapse, Isaak seems the living representation of a condemnation already announced. However, I advise German fans not to abandon Isaak. He does not deserve to be taken to execution on Mount Golgotha. He is your representative and even if it is the most disappointing choice you must support him because he will fight for you and is putting his career on the line.

The bold choices for the ESC were Ryk or Bodine. Choices always from the right side of the scoreboard but which would have given a glimpse of a Germany that was not musically surrendered. With Ryk we could work more on the emotional side while with Bodine a little more on the sound.

In my opinion, Germany has taken a step back from the path taken with Malik Harris and LOTL. They weren't great competitors but there was a hint of quality.

From next season Germany must follow the path of France and choose an internal singer. You could fish out Lena (exploiting a "Loreen effect") and give her a good song to perform; or Ben Dolic was brought back, who had given a glimpse of something good with "Violent Thing". Who else? You could aim for a big name but it's difficult for German stars to take risks at the moment. France, maintaining the comparison, before focusing on Slimane, comes from an average positive trail with "Voilà", "Fulenn" and "Evidemment" (the last two songs, even if they collected little, were products with their own originality).

I don't know what else to think. I don't understand how a rich nation, with one of the strongest music markets and with solid foundations, leaving aside classical music, in Rock can offer such a desolate panorama. In these years, before Europe rediscovered its comic streak with the Moldovans, Käärijää, Joost Klein and Baby Fettuccine, why didn't Germany try? It was the right genre to launch very young artists. Well, even the joking genre could be one of the choices that can be adopted but now I fear that Europe risks falling into habit and after this edition we will at least have to wait two or three editions to recharge the surprise effect for the joking entries.

A warm greeting to the German fans. For me among the warmest fans in Europe when it comes to Eurovision Song Contest. You deserve more.

The song is OK. He's got a great voice, he definitely can deliver ! But indeed, I don't really see people jumping on their phones to vote for this one... Juries should like him !

I´m not so sure about winning again, but that´s a different topic.

And Freiburg only has a hall with a capacity of 5800, muuuuch too small for such a big event.
