Anything in German, if possible not super bland, would do it for me. Is that too much to ask?
I don't think it's the final part of the selection process that's to blame, I do quite like the idea of multiple panels, though I prefer the Sanremo style. I gave the final German selection a go at three separate occasions and all of those songs were really dull, with the small exception of Lily's Surprise, that would still place at about 30-35th place in my Eurovision ranking. 80% of Melfest / Sanremo / Destination Eurovision's top 10 would win ULfI for me. So in my opinion, the problem is in the songwriting camp. How can you narrow 1000 people down to this final product... is really beyond me.
