Germany: 693 songs submitted for “Das Deutsche Finale 2024”

On Sunday, October 15, the entry period for “Deutsche Finale 2024”, the national competition through which the German representative for the upcoming Eurovision contest will be chosen, came to a close.

The German broadcaster NDR reports that 693 proposals in total were submitted. In particular, 475 solo singers, 71 duets and 127 bands aspire to participate on the German national selection. Information on the upcoming stages of the evaluation as well as the final list of songs that will compete on February 18 will be released soon.

This year, interested artists also had the option of submitting proposals by sharing their song on TikTok with the hashtag #UnserLiedFürLiverpool. Over 900 videos were published, several of which were not considered serious proposals.

Greek-German singer Melissa Mantzoukis is one of the artists who submitted for the German national final. Melissa gained popularity in Germany, through her participation in Idol 2022 . This year, she attempted to represent Greece in the competition with the song “Liar,” but she ultimately did not manage to do so even though the 70-member audience committee gave her a solid first-place ranking. The information we have indicates that the song she submitted to NDR has nothing to do with her participation this year.

Germany was represented this year by Lord of the Lost and the song “Blood and Glitter”. The band, which is well-known in Germany, came in last place overall, with a total of 18 points. Will Germany be able to recover from its string of poor results and move to the left side of the leaderboard?
