Germany GERMANY 2022 - Malik Harris - Rockstars

[escYOUnited]

Look where we are
We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

I tried getting rid of the pain
I tried to make it go away, but it probably won't change
Always thinking 'bout my own worries
Remember back when we had no worries?
Now life just ain't hitting the same
I sit and miss and reminisce about innocent old days
When I was afraid of nobody
Now I'm afraid of being a nobody

Don't wanna leave my bed
I'll just stay and never get it together
'Cause the voices in my head
They keep saying it'll never get better

Look where we are
We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

Sometimes I got this kinda sting that's right inside my chest
Its only purpose is convincing me that I'm a mess
And even though it's always been an uninvited guest
It finds a way in nonetheless
Wish I could change my address
And you know
Just be somebody else for a couple of days
Although I'm pretty sure we all feel the same kinda way
'Cause if you think about it
Aren't we all set in a place
Where we look back at better days
And wish they weren't so far away?

I wish that I could just go back and be the way I was
I wish I'd still not give a damn 'bout how I come across
I wish the way I saw myself had never gotten lost
In all the worries, all the thoughts, overthinking all the parts
So exhausted, always caught up inside my doubts and flaws
And I'ma count them all
Somebody catch me, I'm 'bout to fall
Yeah, I'm 'bout to fall
Can we press pause?
Or do a restart
And be who we are?

We used to be the rockstars
Who never thought of no harm
'Til this thing we call life stopped gleaming
I wish there was a way to go back dreaming

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em

Didn't we?
(We used to be the rockstars)
Didn't we?
(We used to be the rockstars)
(We used to be the rockstars)

Remembering gets so hard
When time is moving so fast
Wish there was a way to know that we're in
The good old days before we all just leave 'em​

Mit so einem langweiligen Song hat man beim ESC keine Chance und darum geht es doch. Aber wenn Deutschland sich nur mit Mittelmaß zufrieden gibt, dann sei es so.
Wenn Eskimo-Callboys da sind, hat keiner von ihnen eine Chance, weshalb der NDR sie nicht mitgenommen haben wird, nicht passend für ihre Radiosender.

 

[midnightsun]

I‘m just here to say… please let it be Eskimo Callboy!

 

[rasmuslights]

please no eskimoo callboy...

i enjoy tokio hotel tho

It appears so unlikely at the moment though... And i'm already extremely salty about it.

It would really surprise me if they wouldn't be among the 6 artists since there was so much fuss about them. Can they really afford it not to put them under these 6? If people /juries will vote for them is another story though.

 

[Franzilein]

Probably unpopular opinion, but I actually quite like Tokio Hotel’s newer music. They’re leaning more into the 80’s and discovered the synths for themselves, always a huge plus in my book. Their rock old rock stint is a guilty pleasure of mine as well tho, all the hype was such a turn-off, but their songs were still pretty catchy

Not sure if a participation is what they are up for however, as it would get them a lot of attention again and I remember them being actually quite happy to do independent stuff now.

 

[Mimmon]

I'm trying to like Tokio Hotel's new genre of music but sometimes songs are hit or miss in my playlist
I really like a new version of their hit song ''Monsoon''

Would those radio stations play them though? If they have the final say we will get 6 bland ass entries

Hope dies last ... but it dies, I guess ...

 

[ESC94]

And even then, I already have a new favourite in .

 

[mauve]

And even then, I already have a new favourite in .

Me not ... only when Finland takes The Rasmus and/or Australia Voyager. Then my world is okay again.

Since it is rumored that Felicia Lu will be a part of the 6, could it be the song "Wish you well"? Just released!

Sounds really promising Don't want to get too invested for now however, in case I will be disappointed and she is not one of the participators

Be prepared, you´ll most likely end up disappointed. I mean, we´re still talking about NDR!!

 

[Kruto]

I do need EC, they managed to wake me up from hibernation! please, make it so....or I will fall back asleep...

 

[Franzilein]

Be prepared, you´ll most likely end up disappointed. I mean, we´re still talking about NDR!!

I mean, we always had somewhat great acts in our shows, no? I am far more scared of our public voting results than our possible candidates... (Sisters > Lilly Among Clouds/Aly Ryan, Cascada > Blitzkids, Jamie-Lee > Avantasia/Gregorian... I am freaking scarred by our national finals )
