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​

At least Denmark are giving us some hope of actually trying with this song :

YES, I just wanted Tessa to perform this

 

[Koori]

Trying to remember if I've ever listened to a preselection where 5 out of 6 songs can be ranked 0\10 for their blindness and I can't

 

[Mainshow]

0/10 - seriously. this is ridiculous. pathetic. bad. abysmal.
WHAT THE FCK.

 

[Datura]

meh this looks totally cheesy, the song would not be that bad (in comparison)

 

[Storm]

Ralph Siegel would enjoy this level of cheesiness.

Edit: and of course the last chorus is in English LMAO

 

[lasse braun]

no.5 aua - the big bullshitbingo super important message - ok i am wrong this act will get the last place in the final runningorder.
das ist unterirdisch!

 

[mauve]

I think they really chose bad songs intentionally. Holy Moly. Good god.

 

[midnightsun]

I'm laughing so hard right now. Ok. We don't want to win, I get it. We don't want to get out of bottom 5, I get it. But why a NF then???!!!

 

[NikolaiMoller]

Germany really coming for that 0 points again

 

[mauve]

How far did we already drop in the odds?

 

[Storm]

That brief hope you had when a not rumored song was announced. And then you realize the band's name is "Team Love"

 

[Mainshow]

Act 6: Malik Harris - Rockstars

 

[Storm]

Why do the snippet's of the artists old songs always sound better than the actual songs.

And what is the deal with these Planschedingsbums people announcing their participation despite not making it lmao

 

[midnightsun]

Okay. I really liked Jendrik and defended him endlessly last year. Thank God this year I can sit back, relax and don't care about my own country!

 

[lasse braun]

shitstorm is coming.

 

[Jay25]

Thanks for nothing.

 

[Kruto]

scheisse... gehe wieder zürruck zum winterschlaff, tchüss...

 

[Datura]

what a disappointment.
i think my fave of these 6 songs is the last one

 

[Storm]

Now this is the year to introduce a last minute wildcard, dear NDR. Maybe chosen by someone else.

 

[mauve]

Are you all deytroying your rooms right now? Goodbye Germany! Pretty sure btw that Malik will represent us in Turin.
