Performed by: Lena
Lyrics by: Gus Seyffert, Nicole Morier, Monica Birkenes
Composed by: Gus Seyffert, Nicole Morier, Monica Birkenes
Language: English




She's got luck all in her eye
He knows her cat-call
Can't escape from telling lies
I heard her saying

Heeeey, mind if I take this chair?
Heeeey, mind if I take this chair?

He drops a pause
She looks annoyed
But she's so mean
He thinks she has to be the one

Taken by a stranger
Stranger things are starting to begin
Lured into the danger
Trip me up and spin me round again

You got some coffee on your collar
And you forgot to comb your hair
I can't wait till I do better
You're here and I don't care
Can't help it if you like it cause I won't be here tomorrow
No-one ever told you that you wouldn't be rejected

Taken by a stranger
Stranger things are starting to begin
Lured into the danger
(Danger is a risky business)
Trip me up and spin me round again

Put the blindfold on his eyes
She saw him peek through
Can't imagine her disguise
I heard her saying

Heeeey, mind if I take this chair?
Yeah, see if I care.

Taken by a stranger
Stranger things are starting to begin
Lured into the danger
(Danger is a risky business)
Trip me up and spin me round again

I really doubt that NDR would invite Cascada to represent Germany at ESC... But I wouldn't mind Marquess (one of the members used to live close to my home town :D )

Cascada all the way!
I can't believe that she walked by us 3 times (!!!) last summer and we didn't get a photo with her. :( I didn't know who she was until she got on stage! :? :roll:

Ugh, Cascada sucks. Why does everyone likes them? The vast majority of the songs are cover versions anyway.
I think if Lena will end up in the Top 10 we will see another season of "Unser Star fuer Oslo" probably which I am not too excited about.

I wouldn't mind another season of "USfO" if Raab makes some slight changes in the show which show that it is the National Final for ESC and not another casting show.

Otherwise I wouldn't mind a concept like Melodifestivalen or MGP. Actually I could live with any kind of NF as long as NDR doesn't make a internal selection.

Re: DEUTSCHLAND - Germany 2011

I highly doubt there will be another "Unser Star für Oslo" because that would mean Norway is going to defend its title. However that won't happen.

I can imagine there will be "Unster Star für Berlin" next year ;P

Silbermond, Rosenstolz etc. won't participate in such a contest and Cascada? Hell, no...

Let's wait for this years ESC-results. i can imagine if lena lands on one of the last places again we won't see Germany in the ESC next year or maybe there will be a joke-entry like raab himself oder guildo horn again because joke-entrys always get results you would not reach with a serious entry.

But if there is another casting-like show, i would like to see some songs in German in the final decision!

Cascada? Forget it... first of all hardly anybody knows her in Germany, she's only famous abroad. Then don't forget that during ESC the artists have to sing live. Angelica Agurbash and Olivia Lewis reminded us about that fact pretty well already. :lol:

At the very beginning Stefan Raab said, that there will be a new version of "Unser Star für Oslo", if it will be succesful.
And it was. So: "Unser Star für ..???.. "

I think "succesful" relates to the result of the esc so Lena's place in the esc-final will decide whether there will be a new Unser star für blablabla or not.

But the main-fokus was to awake the interest of the publicity. ;)

And even if she won't do well on Saturday (which I doubt) the song became pretty popular which I think could also be considered as a success.
