Germany will also present their entry today, the rumors say it will be Benjamin Dolic, a former casting show candidate, but the presentation is at 21:30 local time and the media can already report the name this afternoon.
They REALLY didn't learn from the failure last year, when a "jury" of "music professionals" picked the most boring candidates and left it to the audience to just confirm what the jury already decided. (With band camps and song writing camps to pick the most boring song for the most boring candidates for the audience to choose from). Was pretty much the music version of the GDR democracy, with the communist party allowing you to vote for candidates of other parties which the communist party selected to make sure they get their 95% approval rate.
Instead of faking a democratic decision they at least now picked the entry in secrecy.
So, Britain, be prepared: The last place in ESC will be ours.
(The big problem for the German music industry: German pop music is like German airport projects. A song needs a very very long time, is very slow and requires many repetitions to finally become popular. Not one chance and only 3 minutes time to shine. We only win the ESC by accident, really.)
