I'd prefer Lena to everything.

OK, so now let's ask every German singer to just resign and let Lena only release singles and albums and gets sent to each year's ESC.

For God's sake, what so special about her and her 2 entries?

lol calm down! :lol:

we love her and obviously you dislike her music and her style/attitude. c'est la vie. :lol:

we can't have the same taste or opinion.

Lena's entries were so fresh and modern. They brought Germany back to Top 10. My #1s in 2010 and 2011.

You'll never be able to change NoAngels mind about Lena. NoAngels just doesnt like her. Cant blame him. You just have to agree to disagree. :lol:

But it wasn't my intention to change his mind about Lena!!!! :lol:

I'm fully aware that Lena is not likeable to everyone, the same applies for every artist.

I wasn't angry lol, I was just being sarcastic. Seriously, it's like nobody can do music like she does to some people! BTW, just so you know I liked "Satellite".

If radio supports his song, it will be stable. if not, it will keep dropping until May.

It's down to #10 and still decreasing hard so it'll drop out of Top 10 with the next update.
That again will make it decrease even harder than it did until then.

wow that's so cool! ask him what's his favourite Eurovision entry + favorite German Eurovision entry, if he plans to release a new album.

This has really grown on me, its got a great draw too - think it might be worth a punt at 20/1

Great question?? Anyways...why can't he put some more emotions to the song?
The song is really good, but he just can't really convince me vocally. He gets off tone sometimes.

Roman's live performance at Echo awards:

I don't think it's a great draw, considering he performs after the Spanish ballad.

by **Noahh** » Wed Mar 28, 2012 1:23 am

I love this now! The song has grown on me so much the past couple of weeks!

6 (8)Standing Still Lob, Roman

I have seen Roman live twice and he's really a great vocalist. I really wish him the best in May, but I don't think that he will end up in the Top10, 'cause "Standing Still" isn't really energetic and it may remind some people of "Running Scared".

That said, I'm really looking forward to listen to his debut album, which will be released next week! (13-05-2012). I guess, "Changes" is a good title for his album.

A friend of mine met Roman during the casting of "Unser Star für Baku" and she said that he really has a down-to-earth attitude and that he's very friendly.

"Standing Still" is #34 in Germany right now (last week: 28)
