Germany 2023: Lord of the Lost - Blood & Glitter

[Debbie Jellinsky]

This will probably be huge during Carnival in Germany in two weeks.

 

[Tisch]

Sad news everyone, Frida Gold have had to pull out

 

[IntoTheDark]

Gosh this selection is dire.

 

[D5K]

Melodies of Hope is amazing in studio form but the tweet I just saw describing it as "KEiiNO with asthma" sums up the performance

 

[Soldi]

SuRie announcing the UK jury votes

And giving Patty one point

I didn’t watch up until the voting and was annoyed at how low Patty was then saw this

 

[Lucille]

I hope she’s done before the Pizza Express cutely needs a polish.

She was announcing the votes whilst in the bogs cleaning up one of Martha’s SURPRISES

 

[Soldi]

I understand quite a lot of the DEUSTCH, which is surprising considering I got a D in my GCSE.

 

[Lucille]

I’m sure you’ve had plenty of D in German.

 

[Soldi]

As much as I’d love to believe the new thread title surely courtesy of @VoR

This won…


Deustchland, null punkte

 

[IntoTheDark]

I quite like this

 

[D5K]

Better than the runner-up at least.

 

[Eyes]

Nah this was honestly Germany's best shot at escaping the bottom 5.

I'm well on board.

 

[Pingu]

The least worst option. Really hoping a lot of the other bands are knocked out at the semi-finals though.

Albina & Familja Kelmendi aren't a BAND they are a COMMON FRAMEWORK

 

[Dark Carnival]

Oh dear

 

[VoR]

These big on tiktok people really do tend to be horribly exposed when they need to actually perform on a stage with people, don't they?

What a waste of a great song.

They tried but it turned out it just wasn't possible for Jendrik to be exposed any other way

 

[VoR]

2 million viewers last night.

Overall Unser Lied für Liverpool was the 23rd most watched show on German television yesterday

 

[bypass]

Upon first hearinf..it has a couple of moments early on where I think "this could turn into something epic", but then i quickly revert back to "....nah."

Another bottom 5 for Deustchland i fear

 

[GinAg (39)]

It feels like a bad parody of Eurovision rock entries.

Auf Wiedersehen Deutschland

 

[Penelope]

Just heard Tattoo actually overtook Unser Lied für Liverpool as the 22nd most watched show on German television yesterday

 

[ButterTart]

Well obviously I like it

 

[Kratz]

Which country is more hopeless at this point, Germany or Ireland?

 

[Apoca]

 

[Tisch]

I like it! It sets out to do what it needs to better than the Australian one and they seem charismatic enough to pick up a smattering of votes. With the right momentum this could be their best position since a few years (*straight in at 21st with a bullet )

 

[Penelope]

Ireland.

 

[GNL]

Sounds like Patrick Wolf but with more scromiting.

It's quite bad but I'd rather have a bad song that stands out in the mix than another passable but forgettable one.

I agree, I don't hate it but I just wish it had a bit more oomph and went somewhere.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I prefer my blood with butter tbh.

I don't think they qualify for bullet status.

 

[VoR]

One thing the Germans do have on the UK in our flop era is that they do tend to make their entries into local hits. Even last year’s dirge has clocked up 30m streams…

 

[Zu]

God this is fucking shit, not that the alternatives were much better but I’d do Ikke without the wig on. Laughably flimsy and stupid chorus and the singer looks appalling (the HAIR!) and, dare I say it, VERY OLD. In fact I spiralled into quite the temper when it won. Give us metal by all means but make it GOOD metal. Our lovely Käärijä had the very good sense to be inspired by Rammstein so why couldn’t they? I generously call SECOND FROM LAST

 

[Zu]

Which country is more hopeless at this point, Germany or Ireland?

GERMANY. And they’re so clever with their meats

 

[Dark Carnival]

Properly listened to this now…

OH GERMANIA

 

[Apoca]

It really is giving FLOPTINA.

Thank God I'm Austrian (it's where i get my salary)

 

[Zu]

It really is giving FLOPTINA.

Some of the clearly very ill and unmedicated chatters in the Wiwibloggs chatbox (yes I KNOW ) were crowing on about OH WOW GERMANY BACK IN TOP FIVE!!! HOT METAL SOUND!!! SO POWERFULL!!!

I think NOT
