1st harf. Hope Germany will not be 2nd in the running order.
I don't think they'll put an automatic qualifier right after Sweden. But we'll probably be somewhere #4-#8, with UK going later in the 2nd half.

I thought Uk is in the 1st. So the producers will decide later?

The question would be: Will they put two mid-tempo pop songs after one another? I guess one of the semi qualifiers (one who finished between 6th and 10th) will get the two. We will probably end up sitting at five or so.

Also the number 2 might not be that much of a disadvantage this year since the public will be able to vote as soon as the first song starts.

The video clip is boring as hell. My only wish is that NDR will retire after this year and let people do the job that have more passion for ESC. Germany dead last - --

I cant understand the concept of the staging. I guess I am not the only one. Why is he standing there in the middle of a burning room? However, it just doesnt look good.

Like last year, the pics looked absolutely fine but the clip is not appealing at all.
Seriously, who should be voting for it? - It's too static - AGAIN. The props look out of place and overall, the concept doesn't really make sense.
It's absolutely non-sense and boring.

I also don't get it why everything has to be so effing dark whilst the arrangement of the song is quite rich - it should be more powerful and colourful.
Isaak somehow even looks like he's not really feeling at ease at parts.

I know it's just a "30 sec" rehearsal clip but it looks absolutely dumb. - It's like they're just setting the whole stage on fire whilst Isaak is not doing anything at all whilst being dressed in black.

Make. It. Make. Sense.

We aren't from Eastern Europe and our song is not a ballad.
Thus, Björkman will never give us the #2 slot anyway.

Even when we sent the most horrible song to Eurovision in the pre-Jendrik-era, we got #4 in the running order back in 2019.

After this snippet I´m not even convinced anymore this will get jury points, it screams sooo much UK 2021. xgaah

I also absolutely hates how it looks. Like, our national final is so low budget and I genuinely think most acts, including Isaak but also Malik, Sisters, even LOTL, came across better in it. I'm also starting to believe in a double zero despite the Eurojury result and I'm praying this is the final nail in the coffin for the NDR delegation.

I have to be honest, I expected a BIT more after the first rehearsal but somehow I really don’t want to believe he‘s just standing still there. I mean, where‘s his powerful voice? His powerful hand gestures? He‘s moving a lot in his videos, not only the MV but also other live performances.

Please, don’t mess it up, please! I will just ignore the 2nd rehearsal and believe he does save the best for last and he will let it all out in the final to surprise people.

Please, don’t let one of my favourite songs this year die before it even started. Give Isaak at least a chance!

So, I guess that our "goal" is to get a single point to avoid the "double zero" ^^ ?! :D

Wow, that's even a new low for us.
