in germany we have again a black box with rumours,more rumors,the very special EC situation where is a lot of pressure coming from the outside ect.
after this short video 2 days ago i have following theory.
through the big fanpressure the responsible persons at the broadcaster can't avoid eskimo callboy in the NF final but perhaps they or some people of them don't like EC really as the winner and so they can make it very difficult for EC,by offering(choosing) a few very big acts like old big names (scorpions?,santiano again?
) or popular charts acts like this act glockenbach ect.
this is only a little (conspiracy) theory by me of course.

At least we don´t have these silly rumors about Helene Fischer this year.
If they don't want them to win they could just establish an "expert" jury like they did in 2013. I think the current system works in Eskimo Callboys favor. They got the hype.in germany we have again a black box with rumours,more rumors,the very special EC situation where is a lot of pressure coming from the outside ect.

Has anyone heard of a band or singer called "Loi"? That's the latest artist in the German rumour mill.
Rumors are an essential part of ESC, I think! Just to prove us wrong afterwards!
Yes, I heard her debut single on the radio sometime last year. It's her:
Well - her voice is good, but I am not too much into the song.

It seems there will be six songs in our NF:

"Das entspricht der von uns mehrfach diskutierten Vorbehalte, ob Antenne Brandenburg seinen im Durchschnitt 54-jährigen Hörer/innen wirklich zum Frühstückskaffee „Pump It“ von den Eskimo Callboys zumuten würde."
Translation:
This corresponds to the reservations we have discussed several times as to whether Antenne Brandenburg would really expect its listeners, who are on average 54 years old, to have “Pump It” by the Eskimo Callboys for breakfast coffee.
I mean, the 54 yrs old can start with fitness and listen to Pump it!

Well, still don´t know why Antenne Brandenburg is in there, I´d say that rbb 88.8 is more of a "Pop wave".
I don´t know about you, but after breakfast I`m really not in the mood for fitness.
You could combine both:Well, still don´t know why Antenne Brandenburg is in there, I´d say that rbb 88.8 is more of a "Pop wave".

But you are right, why A. Brandenburg takes part is a mystery (or rather not that is).

Just look at the Antenne Brandenburg playlist:
Playlisten | Antenne Brandenburg vom rbb
playlisten.rbb-online.de
Would you consider a radio channel that plays stuff like Lady Gaga next to 60s songs like "California Dreamin" and sometimes even schlager by Helene Fischer a pop channel?? I wouldn´t to be honest.

I mean... music that Antenne Brandenburg plays aside, but I don't know why the journalist thinks the fact that they're on average 54 is important. People who are 50 today were in their 20's in 1990's, so I don't think a possibility of them liking a metalcore song is that far fetched.Translation:

You are right about the age, but still less people who were in their 20s then listened to Metal. I think that Antenne Brandenburg is afraid about its reputation when people take offense when listening to such an "extreme" song. But this idea is silly of course! I think they should introduce EVERY song that will be in the NF, no matter if Rock, Metal, Pop, hip-hop, reggae or whatever genre!

Still weird that they choose Antenne Brandenburg since it´s not really a pop channel.
According to German Wikipedia AB is a "Major AC" channel. You probably don´t know what that is. Well, let me please explain it to you.
First the term AC. It´s the abbreviation of "Adult Contemporary", the most common radio format around the world. Its focus is clearly on the music from the last few decades til now, there´s only little moderation. The target groups are people from 14-49 years.
There are many different subgrenres of AC, depending on what kind of music you can hear there. These are the subgrenres and a few German radio channels that fit into this category.
Hot AC - Focusing on pop music from the charts, with some hits from the past twenty years as an addition. Channels that fit into this profile: Bayern 3, MDR Jump, SWR 3, hr3, SR 1, NDR 2,Bremen Vier,...
Current-Based AC - A mixture of current pop music and songs from the 80s and 90s. Channels like this: WDR 2, rbb 88.8,...
Oldie-Based AC - Channels like this are focussing on older songs, mostly from the 70s and 80s, newer songs only get played occasionally. Examples for this: Bayern 1, SWR 1, SR3, WDR 4, Bremen Eins, hr1, state programmes of NDR, state programmes of MDR,...
Major AC: Playing a very wide mix of different genres, for example a German Schlager can be followed by a song of Lady Gaga. The only big channel that really fits in here is Antenne Brandenburg, maybe some smaller local channels as well.
Hope this didn´t bore you, but I thought it could be helpful to show the differences between the different types of radio.

Even for me, what you wrote was interesting! I don't listen to radio so much actually anymore, only when working in the kittchen or so. But this accurate differentiation makes sense!Still weird that they choose Antenne Brandenburg since it´s not really a pop channel.

But I am really curious to know what kind of six acts the radio stations chose. Even in case there are good ones among them - how will the public chose? I am more than sceptical.

I stopped reading the article after I noticed that "word".
Thanks for telling us that there are probably going to be 6 entries in our NF.
Seriously, after seeing such "grammatical forms", I always stop to read. Is ther more "new information" in this article?
6 is an interesting number, though, it somehow matches the amount of entries taking part in the Irish national final (
) and since our head of delegation previously mentioned that she fell in love with - at least - 9 candidates/acts, they seem to have narrowed it down a lot! That said, I don´t understand why we aren´t going to see 10 entries in a 3 hrs programme/show, though.
