Germany: Lord Of The Lost has won Unser Lied Für Liverpool

The annual German selection has taken place tonight. A lot of new talent has performed tonight, but the ultimate winner was Lord Of The Lost with “Blood & Glitter”. The Gothic band isn’t fully unknown troughout Europe, as they have toured with the popular Metal band Iron Maiden.

The tour resulted in multiple hit singles, and even in giving it a shot on the Eurovision stage. They were given a tough spot, as they had to compete against the popular Ikke Hüftgold who won the TikTok wildcard.

This year’s jury for Unser Lied Für Liverpool was fully made out of former Eurovision artists, like Jamala, The Roop’s frontman Vaidotas, and Gjon’s Tears. Their favorite act of the night was Will Church with “Hold On”. Their least favorite act was Ikke, who had only recieved 10 points. The public didn’t agree with that, as Ikke was the second most voted-on artist of the night. Will Church on the other hand only got eight points.

In the end Lord Of The Lost won, with a 78 point difference. They will represent Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest. Because Germany is one of the Big Five countries, they are already qualified for the final on may 13th.

Vienna 12 points: Jonas Lovv Asked To Tone Down Performance

📷 EBU/Alma Bengtsson According to Norwegian broadcaster NRK, the concern was not about the song itself, but about parts of the performance being considered too suggestive for a family audience. VG reports that the feedback focused on repeated crotch-grabbing and thrusting-style movements, some of which were improvised rather than part of the planned choreography. Jonas Lovv will represent Norway in the second semi-final on Thursday 14 May. He is set to close the show as the 15th act in the running order. Therefore, the Norwegian team still has time to adjust the staging before viewers see it on television. The warning has not led to panic in the Norwegian camp. Lovv has reacted with humour, while also making clear that he takes the EBU’s message seriously. Head of delegation Mads Tørklep said Norway will follow the rules and make the number more family friendly. Lovv earned his Eurovision ticket by winning Melodi Grand Prix earlier this year. His entry “YA YA YA” brings rock energy, strong vocals and a highly physical stage presence to the Wiener Stadthalle. As a result, the performance has already become a talking point during rehearsals. For now, the changes appear to be small adjustments rather than a complete overhaul. Eurovision viewers should still expect an intense and confident Norwegian performance. However, with slightly less emphasis on the movements that sparked the warning. If Norway qualifies, Lovv will return for the Grand Final on Saturday 16 May. The situation adds another storyline to Eurovision week, as artists balance personal expression with the contest’s broadcast guidelines for viewers across Europe. source: NRK
