Nachlese...

Nein, die haben alle nicht gewonnen, keine 12 Punkte zum Sieg, sozusagen. Das Tralala eines liebeskranken Satelillitenwesens hat gesiegt - Germany, naja.

Es gab noch einige mehr, die mir persönlich besser gefallen hätten. Wie ich an diese Sendung komme? Zuerst einmal, ich habe kein Fernsehen. Meine Nachbarin hat auch keinen, aber sie war traurig, dass sie den Eurovision Song Contest nicht sehen konnte. Sie jammerte so sehr, dass ich mich breit schlagen liess, und mit ihr die Songs über das Internet angesehen habe.

Sie war übrigens auch nicht für Germany, und sie ist viel jünger als ich. Am Alter kann es also nicht liegen...
Und, wir haben die Lieder angeschaut und angehört, unabhängig von unseren politischen Anschauungen - unabhängig von den Kommerzinterressen. Einfach so...


Ukraine (NTU)

Performer: Alyosha
Song title: Sweet People
Song writer(s): Olena Kucher
Song composer(s): Olena Kucher, Borys Kukoba & Vadim Lisitsa

Oh, sweet people
What have we done?
Tell me what is happening?
For all that we've built
Tumbles and is gone

Oh, sweet people
Have you no love for mankind?
Must you go on killing
Just to pass the time.

The message is so true
The end is really near
All these feelings take me down    
It steals the things so dear
Yes, the message is so real.
Don't turn all the earth to stone
Because, because, because
This is your home

Oh, sweet people
what about our children?
In theaters and video games
They watch what we send to ruin

Oh, sweet people
What senseless game
Have we all been playing?
No one but you to blame?

The message is so true
The end is really near
All these feelings take me down    
It steals the things so dear
Yes, the message is so real.
Don't turn all the earth to stone
Because, because, because
This is your home

This is our home.

Performer: maNga
Song title: We Could Be The Same
Song writer(s): Evren Özdemir, maNga, Fiona Movery Akıncı
Song composer(s): maNga

You could be the one in my dreams
You could be much more than you seem
Anything I’ve wanted in life
Do you understand what I mean?
I can see that this could be fate
I can love you more than they hate
Doesn’t matter who they will blame
We can beat them at their own game

I can see it in your eyes
It doesn’t come as a surprise
I’ve seen you dancing like a star
No matter how different we are

For all this time
I’ve been loving you
Don’t even know your name
For just one night
We could be the same
No matter what they say

And I feel I’m turning the page
And I feel the world is a stage
I don’t think the drama will stop
I don’t think they’ll give up the rage
But I know the world could be great
I can love you more then they hate
Doesn’t matter who they will blame
We can beat them at their own game

Song composer(s): Jesús Cañadilla, Luis Miguel de la Varga, Alberto Jodar, Daniel Diges

"ALGO PEQUEÑITO"
(“SOMETHING TINY”)


Something tiny
Something really little
A white rose, a caress
A sweet kiss and an apology

Something tiny
Something really little
A tender gesture, a look
An embrace, a flower.

Something tiny
Something really little
A simple “I love you” with sweetness,
with affection andwith passion.

That’s all I ask you, my love
My life is falling apart, you’re breaking my heart
Try to change soon
Time is really running out now.

[Chorus]

Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
Simple things that you’re not giving me now
I´m asking you for like crazy, if you don’t want it to end
Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
The choice is in your hands
Today you decide whether to love me
Or to break my heart

Something tiny
something really pretty
Your wind-blown hair entwined in the warmth of my hands
You managed to understand
That it’s the small things that keep this fire alive
Now, try to change,
The rest will sort itself out

[Chorus]

Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
The simple things that now you are giving me
I love you like crazy and will always love you
Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
The choice is in your hands
You decided to love me and not to break my heart,
Not to break my heart

Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
Simple things that you’re not giving me now
I´m asking you for like crazy, if you don’t want it to end
Something tiny, oh oh oh ooooh
Something really little, oh oh oh ooooh
The choice is in your hands
Today you decide whether to love me
Or to break my heart 

Israel (IBA)

Performer: Harel Skaat
Song title: Milim
Song writer(s): Noam Horev
Song composer(s): Tomer Adaddi

once again the sadness is here
again fear has risen
and the end is at my window
cracked glass, silence again and
exhausted and cast aside
in my mind
the light fell asleep, tears of blood
burning my throat
scratched handle ,fallen ceiling
when singing to you the last song

you left me only words
Refuge in the shadows
arranged books
and in between the rooms
you left me only words
and a bouquet of locks
god
you left me only words

the walls are silent now
and what did you take
when you ran away
yes, what did you take
you might have won this war
what is left when you are gone?

you left me only words
Refuge between the shadows
arranged books
and in between the rooms
you left me only words
locks bouquet
god
you left me only words

to the ice is also cold
When I remember
how today you are in front of him
Lightning in his shadow
Breaking for him
the words you left me
You are telling him
