Amen, I guess
You said that it's time for us to put
Our love to rest
Dressed in black, you left my neighborhood

No, I never thought you'd bury me and you
No, I never thought we'd die

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen

I bet it's just another funeral to you
But for me it's the end
A marching band are playing gone too soon

No, I never thought you'd bury me and you
No, I never thought we'd die

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?

'Cause it all feels like you didn't even try
Oh try, oh try, try to save us
All this time wasted on a lie

But amen, amen
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Tell me, is this what you wanted?
Amen, amen, yeah
Are you getting what you wanted?
Are you getting what you wanted?
Amen​

Do we know there aren't more backing singers involved?
there is one male backing vocalist. and there will be dancers on stage. for me it does not sound like gospel. but i would not mind, i like gospel.

The backing vocals are taped. So you can use more tracks with one voice. Theoretisch. I don't know.

Vincent with a gospel song? Uhh, i don't know if I'd imagine him singing gospel is a good idea, but it kind of fits his theatrical background, I... guess...?

We all have misread the title! It‘s a song about a crossover story of the A-team and the X-men. It will be used as title-song for the upcoming Netflix series. Stay tuned!

I don't care if the song is gospel or not, polished or raw. It needs to be compelling. And here is where my doubt is. Vincent Bueno is very uncharismatic, unlike Jendrick from Germany, so will not be able to sell any polished song, unless there is something relatable to it.

A good production is not a guarantee for a good result.

For example, Germany 2020, great production value, tiny live vocals. Would Ben Dolic have been able to deliver a great result? I have my doubts. On the other hand, this year, Germany is more polarizing, less polished, amateurish even, but so relatable. There is a huge potential with that song. Especially after 2019, when most songs at the top were slick and a bit boring, and original songs were left out in the cold, I doubt this history is gonna repeat this year. We want to survive Covid19 and cheer up from an economic depression. A perfect polished product doesn't cut it this time.

Oh dear, now Slovenia has revealed their entry with a gospel-inspired ballad with the same title. Austria's one better be an uptempo one. Luckily they are in different semi.

funny situation. amen in each semi. there is probably a higher plan behind it. ;-)
but two gospel songs with the same song title probably would be a disadvantage in the final. but lets see what we will get from vincent.

Irony is that none of two amens have more than 0.01 chances for final so you don't have to worry about that.

If Vincent suddenly changes his song title then we'll 100% be having an Efendi vs Senhit moment here. xheat

I mean... is there a rule that 2 countries can't send the same song (in the same year)?
