On Thursday, 9 February next year the Germans choose their Eurovision entry for 2017. The preliminary round is undergoing some changes after two consecutive last places.<\/p>\n

From today young singers register vi<\/a>(a) the official German Eurovision website<\/a>. A total of thirty candidates will be considered for casting rounds, which, however, will not pick up the tv screen. Of them will be the five best participants<\/strong> selected to compete in the national final against each other, Eurovision Song Contest-Unser Song 2017<\/em>. That goes on Thursday 9 February 2017 to 8:15 pm on antenna on Das Erste, the German One.<\/p>\n

In the national final, which is broadcast live from Cologne and will take no less than three hours to complete, the candidates are assisted by a six-piece live band led by Wolfgang Dahlheimer. The presentation is again in the hands of Barbara Sch\u00f6neberger. New is a three-headed jury that any action will comment. The jury members are Lena Meyer-Landrut <\/strong>(photo), winner of the Eurovision song contest 2010 and also the candidate of 2011, Tim Bendzko and Florian Silbereisen.<\/p>\n

The jury members may give their unvarnished opinions, but have no voting rights: only German viewers make the final decision through televoting. Another novelty is the European st<\/strong>emmingbarometer<\/strong><\/em>: the show is streamed live via Eurovision.tv, and through the official app of the Eurovision Song Contest can viewers of the show from across the European continent their preference. The ‘ European voices ‘ do not count towards the final result, but the German public should serve to give an indication of where Europe likes.<\/p>\n

Such a barometer seems not a bad idea based on the past Eurovision results<\/strong> of the country: the last four song festivals were our neighbours the top-15 of the standings in the finals, with both in 2015 as 2016 a very last place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
