Germany in Eurovision Song Contest (1956-2020)
Unterhaltung
Here are all the songs that competed for Germany in Eurovision Song Contest from 1956 to 2020.
Germany has officially participated in every Eurovision Song Contest since its beginning in 1956, except in 1996 when its entry did not qualify past the audio-only pre‐selection round, and consequently was not seen in the broadcast final and does not count as one of Germany's 63 appearances. No other country has been represented as many times. Along with France, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom, Germany is one of the "Big Five" countries that are automatically qualified to the final, due to being the largest financial contributors to the European Broadcasting Union. The final is broadcast in Germany on ARD flagship channel, Das Erste. Germany has won the contest twice, in 1982 and 2010.
Germany first won the contest at the 27th attempt in 1982 in Harrogate, when Nicole won with the song "Ein bisschen Frieden" (A Little Peace). The second German victory came 28 years later at the 2010 contest in Oslo, when Lena won with "Satellite". Katja Ebstein, who finished third in 1970 and 1971, then second in 1980, is the only performer to have made the top three on three occasions. Germany has a total of 11 top three placements, also finishing second with Lena Valaitis (1981) and twice with the group Wind (1985 and 1987), and finishing third with Mary Roos (1972), Mekado (1994) and Surpriz (1999). Germany has finished last on seven occasions, receiving nul points in 1964, 1965 and 2015.
Having not reached the top-ten in ten of the previous 13 contests (2005-17), Michael Schulte achieved Germany's second-best result of the 21st century, by finishing fourth at the 2018 contest. Although German contestants have had varied levels of success, public interest remains high and the contest is one of the most-watched events each year.

Nach Satellit ist definitiv Ghost mein Favorit 🤩
I really can't understand the last place in 2015 and 2016 :/
2014 Elaiza must be the absolute shittiest song from Germany EVER!
Echt schlecht iwi
Die No Angels klingen furchtbar.....
Also wer Stefan Raab nicht mag hat keinen normalen Geschmack 😂😂
Was ist das für eine Scheiße
Lena is the best in 2010 and 2011
Jedes Land sollte nur in seiner Sprache singen und nicht fast alle auf englisch.
Mir war nie klar das Deutschland schon immer beim ESC Mist gesungen hat😂

70er und 80er waren nun wirklich nicht so schlecht
13:50 :D thank you for this (netherlands have 1 to germany in '93. That saved germany from relegation in '94.
I'm from Sweden and we love Jendrik and his great song. My family, our friends and I and many ESC fans hope that Jendrik will be very successful. He deserves it so much because we need lots of fun right now. We posted Jendrik's video and our very positive comments in many languages on Betty MacDonald fan club blog and our Eurovision Song Contest group and we got great feedback from all over the world. People love this song and they adore Jendrik's unique creativity, humor and wit. I know what I'm talking about because we support German author Wolfgang Hampel, who wrote ' Satire ist mein Lieblingstier ' ( Satire is my favorite animal ). This very witty book got many delighted readers around the world. We need very funny books and songs during this crisis. Therefore Jendrik will be very popular. Congratulations Germany and Jendrik. bettymacdonaldfanclub.blogspot.com/2021/03/satire-ist-mein-lieblingstier-von_81.html bettymacdonaldfanclub.blogspot.com/2021/03/jendrik-incredible-road-to-eurovision.html
19:30 you are wrong, the winner in 2010 is not Lena, *the real winner is maNga* :)

German i the language i was raised with but the longer i watch this video the more it feels like it's just my second language, it sounds so off for some reason xD
Ich bin echt gespannt, wie Deutschland 2021 wohl abschneidet
Ooof Cascada hat echt so schlecht abgeschnitten? I love you anyway
Sind alle besser als Jendrik
good job done germany in all those years. lena valaitis is my nr: 1, with the song johnny blue.
Die Songs, die so schlecht abgeschnitten haben, sind oft gar nicht wirklich schlimm, aber absolut langweiliger Einheitsbrei, den man nach 5 Sekunden wieder vergessen hat. Natürlich will das niemand hören. Stefan Raab ist ja auch keine musikalische Offenbarung, aber er hat Spaß und die Leute machen es mit. Lordi hat es damals auch geschafft, indem sie sich von allen anderen Kandidaten abgehoben haben, genauso wie z.B. Portugal 2017.
Wir wissen eine sache und zwar das deutsche nicht singen können :/

The 1982 Song will Never lose its Massage
Herr Ralph Siegel approves this video ;)
So jetzt zurück zu dreiviertelblut und guter Deutscher Musik.
Honestly... I really love Black Smoke and Ghost. And Glorious is like a throwback to my childhood and it's a jam.

So many people dislike ghost I must say that I really like it. For me it's one of the best one's on that list
also dem komisches Guido hätt ich 0 punkte gegeben , für das rumgehüpfe . und natürlich auch 0 punkte für jedes lied , das nicht in deutscher sprache gesungen worden ist .
Ben should get in to the top 5 or 10 in this season
Still a mess that Dschinghis Khan didn't won 😅
Why do they all sing in English??
bei Lena sagte ich schon während der deutschen Ausscheidung, dass sie den ESC gewinnen wird. :-)
Gildo Horn, bestes performing ever
Katja Ebstein, dreimal auf dem Treppchen
Joy Fleming einfach geil
Wow die Kessler Zwillinge waren bildhübsch
8:35 These are the people who made "Moskau"
Boah, waren da miese Songs dabei...
2016 the best
best years 1962,1967,1968,1969,1970,1971,1973,1977,1978,1979,1980,1982,1985,1987,1988,1994,1999,2010,2012
Und Ralph Siegel war schwer im Geschäft aber alles hat seine Zeit
Joy Fleming might have been the most underrated ever.

her voice was so powerful and she was a very warm hearted woman. She die in 2017. RIP Joy.
2010 : Lena meyer Landrut one of the biggest singers in germany and very popular in other countrys too . Im proud of her because she got first place and is active in the Voice Kids germany and got first place . (and my name is lena too but this is my fathers account ) Stay save all!!!!!
Von schlecht bis gut ist ja alles dabei
Roman Lob! Leute mit der Ersatztoilette auf dem Kopf....naja
Also, ich schätze den Ndr sonst sehr! Aber die Auswahl der Kandidaten für den ESC sollten doch zukünftig Menschen vornehmen, die von Musik Ahnung haben, Und damit meine ich nicht Bohlen!
Maxi und Chris Garden waren zu niedrig bewertet. Und danach kam der Flieger! Was en Schwachsinn! Wie kann man einen solchen Schwachsinn überhaupt auf eine Bühne lassen?
12:57 Ned Flanders sang beim ESC???

OMG was für ein geiler Kommentar. Unerhört, dass da noch keiner drauf reagiert hat. WItzig hoch 1000!!!!!
Dass Texas Lightning so schlecht abgeschnitten hat, tut mir immer noch weh! :(
Ein stetiger Verfall in der Qualität...
2012 1994 2020 and 2001 were some of my faves.
Joy Fleming 1975 - bester deutscher Beitrag aller Zeiten... 👍👍
2016 is one of the best for me, from Ukraine 🇺🇦🇩🇪
And 2011😍
2010😍
Meine Lieblingssongs sind aus 1970, 1972, 1974, 1979, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2006 und 2010. Dazu gab es einige ordentliche Lieder, die meistens zu schlecht abgeschnitten haben (z. B. 2003). Der Song von Cascada kam ein Jahr zu spät. Gracia habe ich schon vorher auf den letzten Platz getippt. Das Lied aus 1987 atmet die 80er Jahre. - Ich bin wahrscheinlich der einzige, der das Lied von 1974 mag. Seit 2014 habe ich allerdings vollständig das Interesse am ESC verloren und nie wieder geguckt.
Germany is soo bad lmao

I cant imagine 1956 when Germany performed and countries like France and Poland are watching.
Der Totalausfall bei Corinna Mays Klamotten ist noch immer gut für Augenkrebs. Dasselbe gilt für die Ketchup-Haare von Lou. Horror!
Ja, das hört 2021 nicht auf. Hab ihn probegehört. Einer der letzten 5 Plätze.
Und trotzdrem gefällt mir Black Smoke ziemlich gut.
Ich frage mich ob das Publikum den Gewinner mitbestimmen kann, und wenn Nein warum nicht?

2015 and 2016 were good entries, they deserved A LOT better.
1970 Katja Epstein, 1979 Dschingis Kahn, 1980 Katja Epstein, 1981 Lena Valaitis, 2006 Texas Lightening, 2012 Roman Lob are my favourites!
Katja Epstein ist ja wohl eine Eurovisionslegende :)

RIP Roger Cicero 1970 - 2016
Jeder muss es eingestehen: Dschingis Khan war einfach das Beste was Deutschland jemals eingereicht hat.
Das ist doch Geschichte. Lale Andersen im Eurovision!
1978 Beste
Meine Güte war da viel gruseliges Zeug dabei, wenn man sich vorher die Siegertitel angehört hat, weiss man was Deutschland falsch macht
Love 56(2),59,62,70,71,72,75,78,80-85,87,94,96,01,10,11,15,18,20
I'm from Sweden and I can you tell you the reason why Germany only won twice. It's also because of the Scandinavian juries. They vote for each other and they stole Germany rather often the deserved victory. The best example is ESC 1985 with Wind and the really great entry ' Für alle ' by unforgettable Hanne Haller. It's really a shame and we ESC fans from Scandinavia know these facts very well.
Alice & Ellen Kessler, Conny Froboess, Wenche Myhre, Katja Ebstein, Mary Roos, Gitte, Joy Flemming, Lena Valaitis, NICOLE, Wind, Nino de Angel, Bianca Schomburg, Stefan Raab, Michelle, Roger Cicero and Lena 2010 are my favorites. The others are Not so good
Michael Jackson & maNga love you both
Vor Monat
The others are not so good ?? I passed the song, you can see that the maNga's performance is better even when you watch the volume down. Don't get me wrong, satellite is not a bad song. But not pretty enough for first place, at least when there's maNga :)
Der einzige wirklich gute Sänger von Deutschland, der aufjedenfall auch Platz 1 verdient hätte, war Michael Schulte ❤
You forgot "Missing U" by Tokio Hotel in Eurovision 2023
