5 fantastic duels and soon we will have 5 fantastic finalists. Now, here's the exciting part of the night. You get to choose who the winner of each duel will be, but be quick because phone lines will close quickly.Let's just get a quick recap of the 5 duels...
Phone lines are now OPEN for the next day, so vote quickly! You must vote using the Google Form.
Major disappointment for Germany, which I thought should be a standout thing - and I'm very surprised to see us not going through this time, as Glasperlenspiel adds a message to the beautiful voice and beats used in the songs.
Another thing why I'd love to see us doming through is because we came on with an internationally unknown song. Isn't that the spirit of the DSC, to bring on some surprising and interesting stuff? #VoteGermany
I can only invite you to watch the full video, to get a feeling for the message the songs offers to you:
In the song "Echt" the duo of "Glasperlenspiel" is talking about that moment, when you really feel something special. That moment, when something is truely remarkable and stays in your mind forever.
The video emphasizes this by the young man seeing the girl - and when she's gone he realizes that exactly that moment just happened. He tries to reach her at any consts of effort, but at the end he gives up on that. A coincident moment, when the old man drops the "Glasperlen", makes the two of those re-meet, and by re-recognizing that special moment the song ends.
The moral of the story is, that if you feel a special moment for real, than you should try and chase on what exactly makes you feel this special and good. Cause at the end there is something that rewards you for the efforts you do chasing your dreams and hopes.
I appreciate it if you read this far until here, great that you are interested like this! Hopefully you now give this song another chance, and maybe listen to it one or 2 times more
In other terms: Sad to see Czechia go additionally. I like their outside fresh, soft and couragous choices of songs, keep it up!

Lol, nope This is a dance-pop contest won by relatively known dance-pop songs. You must be confusing the DSC with Eurovision, the contest for unkowns that ultimately win based on politics.
*sigh*
I'm really considering going for Canada next year. Also, we may all complain about dance pop, but ultimately it's a vote.

Athens, we have a result! So, how this will work is this: we will show the final running order on screen, missing out the countries who competed in second chance. One by one we will make it down the running order to reveal the winners of each duel. Let's see the final running order then...
So now we know the running order, but we have some holes missing. Song number 2 and performing there will be the winner of duel number 5...

Congratulations to all 5 finalists, they will join the 11 who qualified direct and of course, the reigning champions, Greece! Join us again for the final live from inside here, I promise it will be amazing. Join us then, we will have rock, pop, folk, schlager and dance music and much, much more. Good evening DSC!
A big thanks to all the guys that voted for Germany! Now heading into the final we have to head without expectations, but a Top 10 would be nice again. But maybe the story has inspired one or two and we can pull out a surprise, it would be great to see
Btw: 4/5 from the second semifinal coming through is interesting, adds to my thoughts that it was the best semifinal in the history of the DSC.

Really glad to make it through! I have no expectations for the final, but again I just encourage everyone to listen to the whole song. I'd do a cover to hype support but I'm not sure I'm capable. We will see.
Thanks to everyone that voted to keep us in the competition, and thanks to Ewan for continuing to make this an amazing experience on Daily!

Damn, missed voting in the second chance round again, the more I'm happy that in 4/5 duels my favorite won, which also means that we already eliminated most of the known songs before he final already.
Now go Sweden!
