With the excitement of the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) growing, the 'Chefsache ESC 2025' competition has raised the stakes among aspiring performers. This contest is not just about music; it's about passion, ambition, and the dream of representing Germany on an international stage.
This year, the competition has attracted nine diverse acts, each eager to showcase their talent. The finalists include Feuerschwanz, Benjamin Braatz, COSBY, Abor & Tynna, LEONORA, JULIKA, LYZA, Moss Kena, and The Great Leslie. Each performer brings their unique style and perspective, adding to the rich mosaic of talent aiming for the coveted spot.
Among these competitors, Abor and Tynna stand out, with their track "Baller" — written by Alexander Hauer, Attila Bornemisza, and Tünde Bornemisza. Brother and sister duo from Vienna, they embody the raw energy and familial bond central to their performance. They expressed their excitement about participating, seeking not only to please the audience but also aiming to capture the hearts of those who might be watching at the ESC.
Benjamin Braatz, whose influences include pop icons such as Elton John and Queen, aims to dazzle the audience with his original song. He stated, "I'm inspired by strings and ice. My music reflects joy and sorrow at the same time." This self-written piece showcases his intent to blend diverse musical elements to create something universally appealing.
Another act making waves is COSBY, who previously contributed to Malik Harris’s ESC song from 2022. Now, they are back with their contestant song, "I'm Still Here," written by Marie Kobylka and featuring music by Kobylka and Robin Karow. Their experience from last year gives them added insight and determination to excel this time around.
Feuerschwanz brings humor and wit to the competition with their light-hearted entry, "Knightclub." This band isn't afraid to poke fun at themselves, and their music reflects this playful approach. Band members Ben Metzner, Dag-Alexis Kopplin, and Peter Henrici are excited to blend their fun-loving style with serious musicianship they hope will resonate with audiences.
Another promising contestant is LEONORA, who is lending her powerful vocals to the mix. Each of these acts has crafted their performances through hard work, and the stakes couldn't be higher. The competition is fierce for not just the title but also the honor of representing Germany on the grand Eurovision stage.
From Fall To Spring, hailing from Saarland, has also entered the fray with their dramatic entry, "Take My Pain Away." Comprising talents like Philip Wilhelm and Seb Monzel, they aim to captivate the audience not only with their music but also through emotional storytelling. Their gritty tone speaks to many who have felt trapped by overwhelming experiences.
The road to ESC 2025 isn't straightforward, and each artist is aware of the challenges. The performances promise to be dynamic, reflecting the heart of contemporary music. The excitement builds with each rehearsal, as competitors refine their acts for the upcoming decisive finals.
