*nods*
One of the main reasons Germany ends up so often where it does....instead of skilled artists with experience and a fanbase and a style and a recognition factor we send nobodies with totally interchangable, generic songs/lyrics written by people who just don't care....not even a show is thought out.....nothing to capture the people....totally forgettable....
But it seems that is exactly what the old people on top of the NDR want and like....it boggles the mind! *throws hands up in the air*
I detest music that sounds like it's from nowhere (or could be from anywhere)

Nah....France got zero points last time....there was no war in Europe back then....and Germany ended down there before too before, or won with Lena in the meantime....to put it all on political reasons doesn't explain everything...it's to easy..."they don't like us sniff sniff* is crap!
We send sh*it regularly....that's all there is....the german broadcaster NDR is to blame for that (Lena for example was managed by a private station for a change to make all the difference, but it was the same Germany which got low or no points before and again afterwards with entries from the NDR, heh:)
And lost respect for France and Germany.

I was surprised that Ukraine got still 7 points out of Serbia, from the public vote at that...with all that Putinistas there! :)

Ewan Spence from the Eurovision Insight Podcast told the Guardian from Turin that "throughout the week, the singers, the broadcasters, the community have proudly stood with Kalush Orchestra and Ukraine. This will always stand as a victory at Eurovision; but it means so much more. It is the grandest gesture of love to the people of Ukraine from every single corner of every single country in Europe and beyond."

But that was such a clear vote from the whole of Europe for Ukraine!!!! YES! :)
Abit sad for the "Space Man" though....in every other contest the UK would have won with that....he was good!

My personal favourites during the '20er:
Unheilig - Geboren um zu leben
Xavier Naidoo - Dieser Weg
(our football hymn back then)
Glasperlenspiel - Geiles Leben and Nie vergessen
Sportfreunde Stiller - Ein Kompliment
Peter Fox - Haus am See
Just a few out of my mind....there are more because we have some real good stuff (Rammstein?)....but we never send any of them and nobody knows why???
Can you name interesting German songs/artists in the last couple of years?

It seems there needs to be a connection with Eurovision:
...Although Australia is not in Europe, Eurovision has been broadcast in the country for over 30 years. In 2014, the year before it would compete for the first time, viewing figures in the country peaked at 2.7 million....
walesonline.co.uk/lifestyle/tv/eurovision-2022-can-australia-compete-23944239
And Israel:
...Israel showed strong interest in the competition from the very beginning and it paid off very soon; they won for the first time in Paris in 1978 with the song A-Ba-Ni-Bi performed by Izhar Cohen and the Alphabeta. The Eurovision Song Contest travelled to Jerusalem in 1979 where Israel won the competition for the second time in a row...
I can only guess that the Eurovision isn't such a big thing in Nigeria....is it in the US?
I ask if them are OK for EURO - vision why not USA, New Zealand, Canada?

"At the very heart of the Eurovision Song Contest is the importance of bringing countries together to celebrate diversity, music and culture. We have admired and respected SBS's support of Eurovision for many years now and wanted to extend the invitation for Australia to join us in this special 60th Anniversary of the Contest.

Interesting info:
Why does Australia get to be in Eurovision?
Australia was invited to get involved as a gesture of goodwill for the show's 60th anniversary, which had a 'Building Bridges' theme. Then on February 12, 2019, Eurovision confirmed that Australia has secured a spot in the competition for the next five years until 2023.
