“Why Michael Schulte blames lack of uniqueness for Germany’s Eurovision failures”

The singer Michael Schulte, who was already successful at the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC), is at a loss in view of the repeated failure of German participants in the most recent editions of the music competition. This year’s German artists from the Lord of the Lost group “delivered a great show,” said the 33-year-old in a podcast on Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR). “I even said before that we wouldn’t be last.” But that’s how it happened.

Schulte added in an interview that he was always of the opinion that it helps to stand out at the ESC and stand out from the field of participants. Lord of the Lost would undoubtedly have fulfilled the condition. “But maybe there weren’t enough metal fans watching, or the people thought it was too blatant.”

Schulte ruled out that the recent poor performance of German artists was due to the public’s general aversion to Germany. Otherwise Lena Meyer-Landrut would not have won in 2010, and he himself would not have finished fourth at the ESC in 2018, said the musician.
