ESC 2016 Press – “With all due respect, dear Europe: This is absurd” – THE WORLD

Germany has landed on the last place in the Euro Vision Song Contest 2016 for the second time in a row. Only eleven points landed the 18-year-old Jamie-Lee Kriewitz with her song “Ghost”. Last year, Germany had also come with Ann Sophie ( “Black Smoke”) only to the last place -. With zero points

The cause search for the debacle has long been in full swing. ARD entertainment coordinator Thomas Schreiber tried at night one possible explanation for the poor performance “. International and the public in all ages, it is obviously rather encountered incomprehension that a manga girl competes from Germany” Their appearance is but “one a” been.

Other media seek explanations. An Overview:

Süddeutsche Zeitung

the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” sees two possible explanations for the poor performance of the German candidate: “Either you do something wrong with the competent NDR, but this would mean that anybody times would have to take responsibility for the ongoing debacle that is something on would have to change procedures. of these it is unlikely. It has the NDR just always right.

the second explanation is of national importance. namely, when the actual NDR nothing should have done wrong, then there remains only the conclusion that Germany comes to show in Europe stands very much alone that all something else like when people in this country. If this is so, would remain only the possibility of even a few years no one to ESC to send. One might as save a lot of pain. “

” Spiegel online “suspected that Jamie-Lee’s song” “was for the ESC:” nischig They got off to a fairly sophisticated look; vocally straight and clear, if somewhat unmoved – until the end of the song out she made her audience. But ‘Ghost’ is just no Mitstampfer but rather worn pop midtempo. After the shipment arrived in the network immediately displeasure on – especially the assumption that the poor placement have to do with Germany’s general unpopularity abroad. But perhaps was just this Korean K-pop number to nischig for juries and audiences. “

Star

According to “star” agreed with Jamie-Lee’s appearance the “total package” not: “Why was it? Singer Jamie-Lee Kriewitz is no reason to criticize. The 18-year-old was in the form, put out a good vocal performance. But Europe has simply not understood the song

The total package was wrong. Loves A student in Pippi Longstocking look, the Manga and K-Pop and in her spare time likes to sleep, singing a lengthy ballad in an enchanted forest full of ghosts. This obviously did not start many. And although the debate once again gets under way: With Merkel or its policy, which is punished, all has little to do “

<. strong> n-tv

n-tv finds the placement Germany simply “absurd”: “Vocally, the German was undoubtedly the most talented participants in this year’s competition. When stage was perhaps not as deeply into their bag of tricks as with the Russians, but it was arranged loving and effective. And the song ‘Ghost’ may possibly also and especially in view of the unquestionably strong competition not have been the one with the greatest appeal. But the eleven points – and 30 points difference to second-bottom – by far the worst? With all due respect, dear Europe: This is almost as absurd as the new voting procedure for ESC

Time Online

“time online”, however, expressed less surprised: “Jamie-Lee’s walk through a stage with dead trees, from which shot laser beams, the audience was obvious . to have much entertainment because that is what matters ultimately.. Despite its name, the Euro vision song contest is just not a pure music competition ‘Jugend musiziert’ not the pop genre here the big stage show will be driven – the more, the better not everyone has a 3D music video show bring as the Russian Lazarev, but viewers want to be entertained. “

Focus

“Focus” was not only the Jamie-Lee-disaster, but like all the “Bore-out event” depressing: “Each of the 26 songs sounds as though Ralph seal composed on acute ADHD and garnished with Ritalin Deco florets. And the stage productions are at least as exciting as it was the Honorary Parade GDR once. The fact that the European family is politically just not in the best condition, is well known. But you have to get that paraded as depressing as the ESC 2016? And Germany? Oh, never mind that. “

Rolling Stone

the German side of the music magazine” Rolling Stone “is relatively hard with Jamie-Lee to the court:” Lee is the cold feel of the talent show, the specter of calculated Cute. The ghost of you “

. But here you do not agree with the last place:” Jamie-Lee Kriewitz is determined a pain, and more than a middle rank nobody had expected. But the song is not wrong, it is even to date, it is melodramatic, it’s hot cold. “
