Germany: The participations highlights of Das deutsche Finale 2024 through TikTok!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The exact role the public broadcaster NDR’s official TikTok account will play remains murky.

Although there was an official mention of the platform in the first official press briefing for the German final, it is still up to the participants to publicize their entries on TikTok with the hashtag #EurovisionGermany2024. Of course, this does not exclude the use of other social networks such as YouTube, where there is already enough material available. It is important to mention that the participants are officially committed only through eurovision.de. For this reason, there will probably be no voting through the popular platform this year.

Below you can watch some candidates who have posted material with the relevant hashtag #EurovisionGermany2024.

Germany: Two new potential candidates for Das Deutsche Finale 2024!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A few days ago we posted an article (here) regarding the artists who have already expressed their intention to take part in Das Deutsche Finale 2024, the show through which Germany is going to pick their next representative at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö, Sweden.

Two new names are joining the list of the potential candidates who are interested in representing Germany. The first new name is Aileen Sager, who is a personal choice of the prominent composer and songwriter Ralph Siegel. Ralph Siegel has already expressed his desire to submit an entry in the German selection process. Apart from that, it has been 50 years since his first participation in Eurovision and 42 years since his victory with Nicole who performed “Ein bißchen Frieden” and he wants to participate once again in this international contest.

Aileen Sager was a semi-finalist in the German franchise of Idol, “Deutschland sucht den Superstar” and she revealed via her personal Instagram account that her music collaboration with Ralph Siegel is focused on the pop genre. However their Eurovision proposal is not finished yet and for this reason Ralph Siegel spends a lot of time at the recording studio.

The second name that may compete to represent Germany is the musical duo Tilly Electronics who want to go to Eurovision 2024 in Malmö with the song “Tanzen”. This music duo makes electronic music, comes from Leipzig and keeps its identity hidden under its black and white suits. Tilly Electronics’ application has been the subject of much debate in recent days on social media – with much encouragement, but also some potential for polarisation.

What do you think of these two potentials for Das Deutsche Finale 2024? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Germany: The application platform for Eurovision 2024 has been opened – When will the selection take place?

/0 Comments/in , /by

German broadcaster NDR has officially confirmed that the national final for choosing the nation’s Eurovision 2024 entry will take place on February 16, 2024, under the new moniker “Das Deutsche Finale 2024” (The 2024 German Final). The application platform launched at the same time that the regulations were made available to the public.

The rules haven’t changed significantly despite the name change for the German national final. These are the announcement’s primary takeaways:

  • From today (7 September) to 5 October 2023, bands and artists can submit their applications on the website eurovision.de. They can also use the hashtag #EurovisionGermany2024 on TikTok to share their submission.
  • NDR emphasizes that all musicians are welcome, regardless of genre.
  • Artists that are interested can enter with or without a song. Later on, the matching of songs and performers will take place. But regardless of whether they include a song or not, all submissions must be accompanied by a video showcasing their vocal abilities.
  • The Eurovision rules should be adhered to by musicians that submit songs. These tracks must not be longer than 3 minutes and cannot be older than 1 September 2023. Last but not least, there are no language restrictions for the lyrical portion.

Germany was represented this year by Lord of the Lost with 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?

Will Germany’s Eurovision participation be taken over by a different broadcaster?

/0 Comments/in , /by

A different broadcaster taking over Germany’s participation in the Eurovision Song Contest starting in 2025 is a real option that is now being considered, according to a report from the German media outlet DWDL earlier today. More precisely, it is said that the ARD is thinking about granting another ARD member control over the German participation, which has previously been handled by the NDR.

What is ARD?

ARD is the consortium of local German television stations. Choosing which broadcaster will handle the country’s participation in the Eurovision Song Contest is one of the group’s duties.

What changes are under discussion?

The most likely scenario, according to the same sources, is that Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk (MDR) will take over Germany’s participation. MDR is ideal for this role thanks to its string of consistently strong television ratings.

It is significant to note that, if determined, the aforementioned modifications will be put into effect after 2025. The NDR will therefore continue to be in charge of the nation’s participation in Eurovision 2024. In actuality, no official conversations on this matter are currently taking place, according to remarks made by MDR officials.

What caused these thoughts to arise?

Germany’s ongoing poor results in the competition spurred consideration of these modifications. Since 2015, the nation has continuously placed in the bottom two spots of the rankings, with the exception of Michael Schulte’s fourth-place finish in 2018. Naturally, this has resulted in unfavorable domestic responses. Therefore, in accordance with the DWDL, the NDR no longer desires to be the focal point of these conflicts.

This year, Germany was represented 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. Could these alterations put an end to Germany’s series of unsatisfactory results and lead to a respectable position?

  • Sweden
  • Cyprus
  • Denmark
  • Norway
  • Finland
  • Malta

Eurovision 2023: Watch video of the BIG 5 and Ukraine’s rehearsals!

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , /by

The preparations on Liverpool for the 67th Eurovision Song Contest are on fire and it’s now a wrap for the seventh and last day of the technical rehearsals. After their first technical rehearsals, the representatives of the BIG 5 and Ukraine took the stage of the M&S Bank Arena for their second rehearsals.

The second rehearsals gave the opportunity to the delegations to fix any mistakes spotted on the first rehearsals and help the artists feel more safe and familiar with the Eurovision big stage.

Because accredited journalists are not allowed to watch both the first and second rehearsals this year, we have very little information about what this year’s artists have prepared for the Eurovision stage. EBU has just uploaded through the official Eurovision channel in YouTube a recap of today’s rehearsals. More specifically, we will have the chance to watch exclusive TV footage of today’s rehearsals.

The countries that had their second rehearsals today were the following:

  1. Germany
  2. France
  3. Italy
  4. Spain
  5. Ukraine
  6. United Kingdom

You can watch the recap of today’s rehearsals below:
