Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [583]

YEEEEESSSSSS!!!!! 😃

The public knows you need to support a people fighting for their very lives!

...otherwise UK would had been a worthy winner...and we got a few points too...so I'm okay with this Eurovision! 😁

Can you name interesting German songs/artists in the last couple of years?

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???

I can't believe that we've sent something that good to Eurovision

*looks enviously over at Poland*

Whereas Germany is set again to go out with ZERO points....can you believe it! 🙄

I ask if them are OK for EURO - vision why not USA, New Zealand, Canada?

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?

.... "It's a daring and at the same time incredibly exciting move. It is our way of saying; let's celebrate this party together!" said Eurovision Song Contest Executive Supervisor Jon Ola Sand.

"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. It would be remiss of us to throw the world's biggest party and not invite our Australian friends, who have such a long history and connection with Eurovision," he added....

Why the hell not?

Nobody said they are now part of Europe or will become a regular contestant....

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.

Germany doesn't want to waste more money

We are fearless about wasting money on everything else....nah, that can't be it!

Yet it beats me why we send such **** to Eurovision.

It's nothing less than a miracle, isn't it....or a conspiracy....*scratches head*

When Ukraine wins they can arrange the next Eurovision....I wonder which city they will chose and if everything is over next year by this time already....I hope so....

Germany will again land far behind, they already made a test survey....I dunno why we send such crap every year....something is rotten here!

A green Germany would be independent from russian gas and oil....no more money for the russian war chest.

why not Poland?

Yeah...good question....

I compare that abit to the situation of the ex-GDR....even after so many years now after the incorporation into rich West-Germany the East lacks in big part, we still are behind...Poland will take as long to catch up.

Why should two countries dominate the EU?

...which are not Poland? You forgot to add..... :)

And why would anyone pay russia in roubles?

It seems the EU isn't quite clear on that.....

Italy demands clarification!

We'll get in conflict with the Germans, Russians

Isn't that happening now and only likely to increase?

Seriously?

When had that ever ended well for Poland?

Do you think that smart?

One of the big achievements of EU and NATO was to put a stop to that unluckly development....but you would love to hop right back into it? Can't wait to show the finger to both of them at the same time? Again? Hoping for rescue from far away places? Again?
