Difference is though, Sweden have consistently placed in the top 10 and have even won twice since your last victory!Well, the same goes for Sweden, but with more success. German songs are mostly written for the domestic market. Over the years English has become a kind of unofficial second language here and many songwriters think it's easier and more profitable to write in English because you can reach a wider audience and people should be able to understand the lyrics. The words in German are also longer and the German language may not be as flexible with sentence structure. The problem is that many of them overestimate their English skills and pronunciation or fail to convey their emotions because of the foreign language.
Some German Songs:

Sabotage!!!!Should Marie win, we are doomed. She can't do any choreo (correct me if anyone has seen her doing fantastic dances) and I doubt that she can sing live (correct me here as well). Many live videos are playback and if she sings, it sounds like this here:
Maybe Marie-Fans here WANT to see us fail again and doing this on purpose?
Basically all music shows of MDR are cheesy Schlager shows no one under the age of sixty watches.
I didn't understood the hype around that 2 songs either. Eaea was too artsy and Evidenmment was too generic.* Songs such as "Évidemment" and "EaEa" partially failed the jury. Songs that were thought to have the power to capture more consensus from the jury.
The best connection for "Oh Boy" is "Rockstars". I included the French and Spanish songs as a comparison to make it clear that obtaining the jury's vote is not a given. The only element to obtain jury points, even low ones but you get them, is the quality and how much the song manages to have an identity. I hope I'm wrong but "Oh Boy" smells like a trap.I didn't understood the hype around that 2 songs either. Eaea was too artsy and Evidenmment was too generic.
Then again I don't see the connection to "Oh Boy"...
I know. Just wanted to tease you a bit. I love bops as well when they are WELL done. Marie's song though is very cheap.No I just genuinely love that genre
To connect "Oh Boy" with "Rockstars" is an offense (obviously not to @Looren ), but these two have absolutely nothing in common.The best connection for "Oh Boy" is "Rockstars".

"EaEa" partially failed but we were talking before ESC 2023 about a possible victory or Top 5. It got the points but if we look at the expectations it was a disaster. If you play to win you get points, if you play to get 90 jury points you finish last. Then, even if based on data, it is my opinion. I'd be happy to be wrong.Eaea got 9th in the jury votes. This would still be a good result for Germany.

I'm talking about emotional flow. An emotional song can win over the jury and at the same time leave them cold. I don't know... I don't feel any vibrations. It could be that my tastes cloud my logic.To connect "Oh Boy" with "Rockstars" is an offense (obviously not to @Looren ), but these two have absolutely nothing in common.
If you are talking about evoking emotions with a song, that is very individual. And in this sense there are probably other songs you can rather associate "Oh Boy" with, but definitely not "Rockstars", I would think.I'm talking about emotional flow.

I can't imagine people voting for her if she sings this poorly, even if it is german and schlager.Should Marie win, we are doomed.
