Re: INK [137] This is no computer game, this is real life!
Fifty shades of Paperland and INK!
My personal ranking of my first 50 entries! (continuation)
[ 20. ] 83: SomethingALaMode feat. Karl Lagerfeld - Rondo Parisiano #1 [[video]]
My first entry, my first win! 
And in the end it was all because of Yaponesia and Takeru!
Why? I've planed from begining on (me joining the WL more than one year before i finaly could enter the contest) to send "Clazziquai Project - Flea" as my debut entry and because i stopped some editions before that to vote in semi-rejus... i didnt notice that just one edition before Yaponesia entered that song in NSC 82!!! I was very shocked as Sean told me that and i also was a bit sad, because i love "Flea" and i always and i looked forward excitedly to finaly send it.
I've had a hard time to find in a short time a new song... in the end i decided for a song, which i already sent to another song contest and still was awesome: Rondo Parisiano*!
I've never expected to win with it, i just hoped to qualify... i was shocked about winning the first edition with me as participant! Also because i'm not used with winning... from approximately 50 songcontests before, i've only won two times and all of them havent had 60 participants like NSC have (one of my victories was in WLSC with only arround 15 participants). Paperland was one of just a few nations which did that and the first since arround 40 editions.
Today, i honestly only can thank Takeru thousand times for "destroying my dream"... seriously, the reality was so much better!
*btw.: it only got place #13 out of 40 in that other song contest, with more than 50 points less than the winner
[ 19. ] 112: Kai Tracid - Tiefenrausch (The Deep Blue) (Orchestral version) #19 [[video]]
I liked the Trance-Version as it was released... but i always thought that it must be a coverversion or a sample and i've searched for and yes: the original is from documovie (i guess the name was "In to the Deep Blue"), but i couldnt get the soundtrack somewhere... so i forgott about it.
Some Years later, shortly before edition 112 i remembered that song because it were played in a shop on the radio. I again searched for it and tadaaa! On the single-CD of the trance version, there was this orchestral version of it!
[ 18. ] 100: Mehmet Akar - The Light Goes On* #S16 [[video]]
My 2nd INK entry and my entry for the anniversairy edition. I was pretty happy to end out of Bottom 5 of the semi with this, so i'm okay with the placement. Still love this hypnotic sounds!
The first and maybe last turkish entry from me. ^^ I guess it would have got more points if the end of the song wouldnt have been that long.
[ 17. ] 121: Safia - Counting Sheep #8
[[video]]
The most succesfull INK-Song under this first 50 entries. Brought me trough some sleepless nights
Love this creepy tune. By the way: before the official video was there, there was one with Mr. Beam... fits also very good to that song ^^
[ 16. ] 86: salyu × salyu - Tadano Tomodachi (live) #27 (#4) [[video]]
To thinking about this one always makes me a bit sad.... i had my voting ready... thought i have sent it to the host before going on vacation (i definetely had the message window open), but i haven't sent it.
It would have ended on 4th place, if i wouldnt have ftv... never expected this could do so well. Ah... and the live version i've sent is much better than the album version!
[ 15. ] 119: Dolls United - Eine Insel mit zwei Bergen #26 [[video]]
Awww... Childhood Memories!
Not in connection with the Augsburger Puppenkiste, where the originaltune is comming from, but to this 90's hit in germany from the so called "New German Dancefloor"... for a short time back then it was pretty successfull to take childsongs or similar and making an edm-track out of it... one of the few songs of which i remember the lyrics ^^
[ 14. ] 106: Shane Shu - I See Sheeps Falling From the Sky #S18 [[video]]
Anselm had to wait a long time for me finally sending this one, but i always delayed and delayed it again. But in 106, it was finally time!
But awfully, alltough we both thought that this fits perfectly to NSC, it stucked in the semis
Nevertheless im still happy with have sent it!
[ 13. ] 93: How To Destroy Angels - Ice Age #S22 [[video]]
Let me just quote a post i made before revealing this as my NSC 93 entry:
This "This one song that i discovered a few time ago and couldnt describe it yet. It is one with reduced music and a special feeling" song makes me crazy...
i feel everything about it untill now... i like it, it bores me, it annoys me, i hate it, it totally amazes me, i didnt notice that i have heared it, i love it, it makes me agressive, it fascinates me, it fears me, it makes me sad, it makes me happy, it confuses me, i totally enjoy one sentence of the lyrics, i wont hear this lyrics anymore...
...
xboring :shock: 
X-OI 
xwhistle :|
...
But i still want to send it.
I can't understand that this have done that bad
[ 12. ] 95: Frank Zander - Du kannst nicht immer 17 sein #27 [[video]]
I love this one, but not many others beside Tinchey did the same.
Frank Zander is a german musician who also did german schlager, but always experimented with styles in music and in 2004 he made two albums with german schlager covers in a very dark rock-style... this is one of the covers and change the meaning of the lyrics completely without really changing them, awesome!!!
[ 11. ] 99: Djs From Mars feat. Fragma - Insane (In Da Brain)* #S20 [[video]]
First INK entry ever!!! With a tribute video to many famous music video clips and a great rocky sound!
