Podcasts about Song Contest

Zu Gast in der Episode sind alle neun Acts für "Das deutsche Finale 2026". Bela, Dreamboys The Band, Laura Nahr, Malou Lovis, Sarah Engels, wavvyboi, MYLE, Molly Sue und Ragazzki haben uns kurze Fragen beantwortet. Außerdem gibt es ein Interview mit dem Vertreter Österreichs, Cosmó, das wir gleich nach seinem Sieg im Vorentscheid geführt haben.  In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Alkis von einem Ort, den ein Journalist "Kuhstall" genannt hat. Am 28. Februar 2026 wählt Deutschland zur besten Sendezeit denjenigen Act, der Deutschland beim Eurovision Song Contest in Wien vertritt. Durch den Abend führt natürlich Barbara Schöneberger, unterstützt wird sie diesmal von Hazel Brugger. Bela ist 23, wuchs in München auf und singt "Herz". Jo The Man The Music, Philippa Kinsky, VILLFORTH und Nina Caroline sind Dreamboys The Band und gehen mit "Jeanie" an den Start. Laura Nahr kommt aus Magdeburg und lebt jetzt in Berlin. Ihr Song heißt "Wonderland". Malou Lovis gewann die 13. Staffel von "The Voice of Germany" und singt "when I'm with you". Molly Sue war bei "The Voice Kids" und "DSDS", jetzt will sie mit "Optimist (Ha Ha Ha)" nach Wien. MYLE stammt aus Ravensburg und tritt mit der wohl kürzesten Titelzeile "A OK" an. Das Duo Marti Fischer und David „Miirtek“ Starosciak mischt auf „Ciao Ragazzki“ Italo-Disco mit Polska-Pop. Bekannt wurde Sarah Engels vor einigen Jahren bei DSDS. Mit "Fire" meldet sie sich zurück und will damit zum ESC. Aus Liechtenstein stammt wavvyboi und könnte mit "black glitter" das kleine Land erstmals auf die ESC-Bühne bringen.

Armin Doppelbauer im Gespräch mit dem Halbturner Musiker Cosmó, der heuer beim Song Contest in Wien für Österreich singen möchteAus rechtlichen Gründen kann die Musik im Podcast nicht gespielt werden.

Am 20. Februar 2026 bringt „Vienna Calling“ die Entscheidung: Wer singt für Österreich? In unserer zweiten Vorstellungsrunde sprechen wir mit Cosmó, FREVD, Lena Schaur, Sidrit Vokshi und Anna-Sophie über ihre Songs, ihre Geschichten und ihre Motivation, beim Song Contest auf der Bühne zu stehen. Außerdem stellen wir Nikotin näher vor.Am 19. Februar 2026 öffnet die von Marco und Alkis kuratierte Ausstellung "United by Queerness" im QWIEN regulär die Pforten. Die Ausstellung über die Geschichte(n) des Song Contests wird bis zum 24. Mai zu sehen sein und hat regulär Donnerstag bis Sonntag geöffnet. In der Eurovision-Hochsaison dann auch ein paar mehr Tage unter der Woche.Diese Episode schaut auf die zweite Hälfte der illustren Schar, die am 20. Februar bei "Vienna Calling - Wer singt für Österreich" um den Platz im Finale des Eurovision Song Contests als Vertreterin oder Vertreter Österreichs antritt. Simon hat alle vors Mikro bekommen, bis auf Nikotin, der aus Zeitgründen nicht interviewt werden konnte. Er tritt mit "Unsterblich" an.Cosmós Nummer heißt "Tanzschein". Im Interview erzählt die Band, wie sie sich gefunden hat und warum sie jetzt auf Deutsch singen. Ihre beiden Lieblingssongs sind Italienisch: Lucio Corsi mit "Volevo essere un duro" und Måneskin mit "Zitti E Buoni".FREVD, das sind der Doktor und seine Patienten A bis D, tragen Masken. Weniger um sich zu verstecken, sondern eher damit die Masken als Projektionsfläche für das Publikum dienen. "Riddle" ist zwar eine Debut-Single, aber hinter FREVD stehen bereits erfahrene Musiker anderer Projekte. Das Lieblingsstück des Doktors erstaunt allerdings: Bobbie Singer mit "Reflection".Mit Lena Schaur konnte Simon ganz wunderbar über die gemeinsame Song-Contest-Erfahrung, Lenas Sieg mit "Satellite", schließlich sind beide der selbe Jahrgang. Lena Schaurs Song "Painted Reality" ist speziell für Eurovision geschrieben worden.Sidrit Vokshi begann seine Karriere mit dem Künstlernamen "Hinterkopf", erst seit 2026 tritt er mit seinem bürgerlichen Namen auf. In "Wenn ich rauche" arbeitet er eine schmerzhafte Trennung auf. Mit Simon spricht er darüber, was er zurückgeben möchte. Seine zwei Lieblingstitel könnten unterschiedlicher nicht sein: "Hard Rock Hallelujah" von Lordi und "Fly On The Wings of Love" der Olson Brothers. Anna-Sophie trainiert sehr hart für den Vorentscheid, schließlich heißt ihr Song "Superhuman". Über ihr Trainingsprogramm verrät sie viel, über ihre Choreo beim Vorentscheid noch nicht viel. Ihr Lieblingsmoment ist die Siegesperformance von Conchita.Simon und Marco plaudern über die beiden Vorentscheide in Estland und Dänemark. Dänemark schickt Søren Torpegaard Lund mit "Før Vi Går Hjem" und Estland die bereits zum zweiten mal antretenden Vanilla Ninja. Ihr Song diesmal heißt "Too Epic to Be True".In der kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss räumt Marco mit hartnäckigen Mythen auf.

Wer singt eigentlich für Österreich? In unserer ersten Vorstellungsrunde reden wir mit Philip Piller, Bamlak Werner, David Kurt, Kayla Krystin, Christoph Mooser von Reverend Stomp und Julia Steen über ihre Songs und ihre Motivation, beim Song Contest teilnehmen zu wollen. Am 20. Februar treten 12 Acts beim Vorentscheid "Vienna Calling - Wer singt für Österreich" an, um Österreich am 16. Mai beim großen Eurovisions-Finale in Wien vertreten zu dürfen.Philip Piller tritt mit "Das Leben ist Kunst" an. Er erzählt von der Unmöglichkeit, den perfekten ESC-Song zu schreiben. Sein Lieblings-Eurovision-Song ist "Shum" von Go_A.Bamlak Werners Song heißt „We are not just one thing“ und im Interview erfahren wir, warum sie sich jetzt nicht mehr Cloudhead nennt. Und ihr liebster ESC-Beitrag ist jetzt gerade "Merci, Chérie" von Udo Jürgens.David Kurt singt "pocket full of snow" beim Vorentscheidung. Mit uns spricht er über echte Gefühle beim Song-Schreiben. Sein aktueller Song-Contest-Favorit ist "What the Hell Just Happend" von Remember Monday.Kayla Krystin tritt mit der Pop-Rock-Ballade "I brenn" an. Sie singt das erste mal auf Deutsch, genauer in ihrem Tiroler Dialekt, und erklärt, warum sie vom Englisch aufs Deutsche gewechselt ist. Sie ist Loreen-Fan und entscheidet sich für "Tattoo".Reverend Stomps „Mescalero Ranger“ entstand in Live Sessions im Studio. Sänger und Texter Christoph Mooser erzählt von der etwas anderen musikalischen Tradition der Band. Der Lieblings-ESC-Song der Band ist Guildo Horns "Guildo hat euch lieb", den er damals in Birmingham in einem türkisen Samt-Anzug performt hat.Julia Steen war schon mit Teya & Salena in Liverpool, mit "Julia" will sie in Wien auf die Bühne. Ihre gemeinsame Vergangenheit mit den anderen Acts von Stamania21 hat sie nachhaltig geprägt. Entsprechend ist natürlich JJs "Wasted Love" gerade ihr Lieblingslied vom ESC.Simon und Alkis plaudern über Vidbir, den ukrainischen Vorentscheid, den schlussendlich LELÉKA mit "Ridnym" gewonnen hat.In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Simon von Ausfällen.

2026 feiert Global Kryner (ESC 2005) ihr Comeback – mit neuer Single, neuem Album und einer Tour. Wir haben Christof Spörk zum Gespräch getroffen. Außerdem moderieren Victoria Swarovski und Michael Ostrowski den ESC 2026 in Wien. Auch sie haben wir vorab getroffen und interviewt.Christof Spörk hat eigentlich Politikwissenschaft studiert und spielte daneben Klarinette mit der Band „Die Steirische Landstreich“. Nach absolviertem Studium arbeitet er kurz als Redakteur und konzentriert sich daneben auf das Schreiben von Songs – anfangs mit "Landstreich", ab den frühen 2000er Jahren auch für das Projekt "Global Kryner". 2004 erscheint das erste Global Kryner-Album, die Band wird zum Geheimtipp. Beim österreichischen Vorentscheid findet die Öffentlichkeit, dass die Global Kryner dem Trend zum Ethno-Pop perfekt entsprechen. Sie dürfen Österreich beim Eurovision Song Contest 2005 in der ukrainischen Hauptstadt Kyjiw vertreten. Mit dem autobiographischen "Y Asi", einem Lied über eine Kubanerin, die einen Österreicher kennen lernt, schaffen die Global Kryner es nicht ins Finale. Im Zuge des schlechten Abschneidens verliert die Öffentlichkeit laut Spörk das Interesse an den Global Krynern, es gab viele Auftritte und  es erscheinen noch einige Alben – unter anderem ein Album gemeinsam mit den Rounder Girls. Zur gleichen Zeit beginnt Spörk seine erfolgreiche Karriere als Musik-Kabarettist. 2013 gehen die Global Kryner auf Abschiedstournee. 10 Jahre später haben sich vier der ursprünglichen Mitglieder neu formiert, unterstützt von jüngeren Musikern. Das neue Album heißt "Second Love" und kombiniert Cover und eigene Kompositionen, die zweite Veröffentlichung daraus ist "Unchain My Heart", Konzerte gibt es ab Februar in ganz Österreich.Die traditionellen Fragen am Schluss muss Christof Spörk natürlich auch beantworten: Vom Song Contest 2025 liebt er JJs "Wasted Love" und sein absoluter Lieblings-Song-Contest-Song ist "Amar Pelos Dois" von Salvador und Luísa Sobral, den Gewinnern von Kyjiw 2017.Simon und Alkis plaudern über die Moderation des 70. Eurovision Song Contests in Wien. Die Wahl fiel auf Victoria Swarovski und Michael Ostrowski. Swarovski ist bekanntermaßen Moderatorin in Deutschland, der ESC wird ihre erste Moderation einer großen Show in Österreich sein. Ostrowski ist bekannt für seine unkonventionelle Arbeit auf der Bühne (vor allem mit dem Grazer Theater im Bahnhof) und im Film. Marco hatte die Chance bei der Präsentation, mit  beiden zu sprechen.In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss zählt Alkis von Eins bis Vier.

Ein Gespräch mit Michael von der Heide über Karriere, Erfolge, Enttäuschungen, ESC-Erfahrungen und sein aktuelles Knef-Tribut – zudem waren wir im Wiener Rathaus bei der Auslosung der zwei Semifinals und sprachen mit zwei Bürgermeister, der ORF-Programmdirektorin sowie ESC-Chef Martin Green.Michael von der Heide ist Mitte der 1990er in der Schweiz mit seinen Pop-Chansons ein Shooting Star, 1999 wurde er von der ARD für den deutschen Vorentscheid mit "Bye Bye Bar" eingesetzt, Corinna May gewann, geschickt wurde Ralph Siegel. "Il pleut de l'or" wurde 2010 von der Schweiz geschickt, er wurde im Semi-Finale leider nach Hause geschickt. Mit Marco spricht er über diese Enttäuschung, Hass-Postings, über den Zoff mit dem Boulevard, aber auch über die schönen neuen Projekte auf der Bühne. Derzeit tourt er die Schweiz mit einem Tribut an Hildegard Knef, deren erwachsene Texte er schätzt.Die traditionellen Fragen am Schluss beantwortet er natürlich auch: Vom Eurovision Song Contest 2025 hat er den israelischen Song "New Day Will Rise" von Yuval Raphael auf der Playlist. Wenig erstaunlich ist die Antwort auf die Frage nach dem Lieblingssong aus der Geschichte des Song Contests: "Cinema" seiner guten Freundin Paola, die 1980 die Schweiz vertrat.Bei der Auslosung der Semifinal-Reienfolge sparch Marco mit dem regierenden Bürgermeister Wiens, Michael Ludwig, mit dem Regierungspräsidenten Basels Conradin Cramer, der Programmdirektorin des ORF, Stefanie Groiss-Horowitz und mit dem Managing Director des Eurovision Song Contests, Martin Green.Simon und Marco plaudern außerdem über die bisherigen nationalen Vorentscheide und jene Songs, die nicht weiter kamen.In der Kleinen Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Simon von einer angeblichen Studie der Uni Wien, die vermutlich keine war.

Well, it's been quite a ride, but all good things, and even all mediocre things, must come to an end. Our four week series on the American Song Contest comes to a close, and it's actually got some decent stuff... and also some regrettable stuff too. But that's the ASC in a nutshell, so we talk ways to improve it if they ever attempt something so fool-hardy again. Jeremy cannot and will not feel the love for an audience plant, Dimitry's still pining for his Alaskan idol, and Oscar gives us the 90s Marvel card system to rank K-pop artists.Watch the finale of the ASC here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_diKd6VmRAWatch AleXa break the trophy here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tTyHuX9tJ3EThis week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4ARyAtJVjWI1QAm2390Jio The Eurovangelists are Jeremy Bent, Oscar Montoya and Dimitry Pompée.The theme was arranged and recorded by Cody McCorry and Faye Fadem, and the logo was designed by Tom Deja.Production support for this show was provided by the Maximum Fun network.The show is edited by Jeremy Bent with audio mixing help was courtesy of Shane O'Connell.Find Eurovangelists on social media as @eurovangelists on Instagram and @eurovangelists.com on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

Eurovision has a brand new logo and branding for 2026 — and song contest Director Martin Green explains what it really means. Eurovision Song Contest Director Martin Green joins us to talk about the contest's new look — and why it's all about evolution, not revolution. In this interview, Martin shares how he sees his role as protecting one of the most celebrated entertainment brands in the world, while also listening to the fan community. He explains why transparency matters, how grassroots fan movements helped shape Eurovision into what it is today, and why he enjoys hearing all the feedback — from the heartfelt to the cheeky. Martin also makes it clear: the new look is not a distraction from controversies, but a way to push the brand forward, strengthen its identity, and safeguard its intellectual property for the future. He also discusses the importance of building trust and keeping an open dialogue with fans, even on difficult issues. What do you think of the new logo and branding?

Plot In the year ,  steps out of cryogenic suspension and onto the stage as the   begins in the  space station, with the  and  exiting the  at the same time in order to take a  reading. As the reading finishes they turn to the stage, notice where they are, and unanimously decide that they're staying to watch the festivities. The opening ceremonies include commercials for the contest's sponsor . , also in the audience, watches the Doctor and Belinda from afar and is delighted to see that the Vindicator is primed, calling it "the final link". Meanwhile married couple  and , having arrived late, bicker over their seats being taken by the Doctor and Belinda. A , , storms backstage and seizes control of the production booth along with another Hellion worker, . The pair detain everyone present and swap over the livestream to the recording of the dress rehearsal in order to keep the outside world from realising anything is wrong. However, the Doctor notices that Rylan (who missed the dress) is present on stage but not on the television feed, and begins fiddling with wiring near his seat. As the first song plays, Kid disengages the space station safety protocols and evacuates the air in the main area, sending the vast majority of the audience careening out into space, the Doctor and the TARDIS amongst them. Contestant  and her associate  are spared when Wynn surreptitiously seals their pod, and Belinda manages to hang on after being thrown against the ceiling of hers, but they are seemingly the only survivors. With the arena "purged", Kid initiates the final phase of his plan, bringing out a device that will generate a . However, since the  is still intact, backstage director  tries to persuade Wynn that they could still save everyone. Belinda exits the seats and meets up with Cora and Len, who explain to her that the station is in communication lockdown until the scheduled end of the show to prevent manipulation of the betting markets. There's no way for them to call for help. Len finds Hellion script in a nearby terminal and tells Belinda "people say" Hellions have fearsome psychic powers and practise cannibalism, prompting Cora to defend them. As the Doctor freezes in space, an image bursts into his mind: his granddaughter, . She tells him to go back, to find her. He comes to, grabbing a nearby  and propelling himself back to the airlock where Mike and Gary let him in and revive him. The trio talk about how everyone is frozen but not dead, and the  was increased by the Doctor, so theoretically everyone is still in range of the station. Scanning through a nearby terminal, the Doctor finds out that the hellions are uploading a delta wave to transmit with the song contest, potentially killing all three trillion viewers across the galaxy. Searching for a , they come across a museum dedicated to the song contest's history, complete with holographic . As Kid notices people interfering with the systems he attempts to contact them, speaking with the Doctor, Belinda's group managing to eavesdrop on their exchanges of threats. Cora sees Wynn in the background and reacts, prompting Len to inquire further. Cora confesses that she's a Hellion who cut her own horns off and says that their peaceful planet was destroyed by , makers of PoppyHoney. Kid intends to get revenge on every viewer of the Song Contest, as being complicit in the sponsoring Corporation's crimes. Cora convinces Len to help them stop Kid, but he blames her for lying to him throughout their songwriting partnership and says he will no longer work with her after this crisis is over. The Doctor appears on the bridge and dismantles the delta wave, distracting Kid with a hologram. He then, frustrated with the level of damage Kid wished to inflict on the galaxy - three trillion deaths, injured him repeatedly, using  holograms to inflict pain, only stopping when Belinda and Cora entered the production booth. The Doctor puts Gary and Mike to work grabbing everyone suspended in the mavity field using hard light and then utilizing Rylan's cryochamber to safely revive them. As the majority of the attendees filter into the main chamber once more, Rylan explains that the contest is obviously null and void, but there's one contestant left that he wants everyone to hear - Cora. Cora tells everyone that she's a hellion, that the Corporation tried to bury her song and story, and sings for the galaxy. Applause echoes and the crowd is moved to tears. The Doctor and Belinda find the TARDIS in the museum, brought in by contest staff. In their conversation, they mention the earth, prompting the hologram Graham Norton to appear and mention that the earth was destroyed on   for unknown reasons, everything used for the song contest were sifted from the wreckage. The pair run back into the TARDIS and with a fully primed Vindicator pilot the TARDIS directly back to when they left. As they do so, however, the  chimes, and the TARDIS groans, an explosion rocking the TARDIS doors off their hinges. Mrs Flood is the last of the attendees to be brought back aboard the space station, and immediately is concerned as to whether the Doctor is still around. When she learns that he's gone, she begins to , her double brainstem having frozen, splitting into two, a . The new incarnation identifies herself as , acting dismissive of her earlier incarnation, while Mrs Flood begins to defer to her. Taking the readings of the Vindicator, the new Rani says that she'll bring the Doctor absolute terror, and marches off, her prior self in tow.

Max Pearson presents a collection of the week's Witness History interviews from the BBC World Service. Our guest is Dr Elizabeth Abbott, writer, historian and author of the book, "Sugar: A Bittersweet History".First, we confront the dark history of sugar. We hear how a researcher in the 1990s uncovered the unethical aspects of Sweden's Vipeholm experiments in the 1940 which led to new recommendations for children to eat sweets just once a week.And, how Mexico, a country which had one of the highest rates of fizzy drink consumption in the world, approved a tax on sugary soft drinks in 2013. Then an event which shaped the second half of the last century - On 14 May 1955, the leader of the Soviet Union and Heads of State from seven European countries met to sign the Warsaw Pact.Plus, the story of how two rival electricity pioneers, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison brought electricity to the world. Finally, we hear from Finnish singer Marion Rung on winning the 1980 Intervision Song Contest, the USSR's answer to Eurovision. Contributors: Dr Elin Bommenel - academic Dr Simon Barquera - director of health and nutrition research at The Institute for Public Health of Mexico Dr Elizabeth Abbott - writer and historian Otto Grotewohl - German politician Mark Seifer - biographer of Nikola Tesla William Terbo - relative of Nikola Tesla Marion Rung - Finnish winner of Intervision song contest 1980(Photo: sugar cubes and fizzy drinks, Credit: Anthony Devlin/Press Association)

In 1980, Finnish singer Marion Rung won the Intervision Song Contest. Born in the 1960s, Intervision was the Eastern Bloc's answer to Eurovision. It ran until 1980, although in 2025 Russia's President Vladimir Putin ordered its revival. Finland, which maintained neutrality during the Cold War, was one of the few countries to participate in both competitions. Marion Rung achieved top 10 Eurovision finishes in 1962 and 1973 before winning Intervision. She speaks to Ben Henderson.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: visionary architect Antoni Gaudi and the design of the Sagrada Familia; Michael Jordan and his bespoke Nike trainers; Princess Diana at the Taj Mahal; and Görel Hanser, manager of legendary Swedish pop band Abba on the influence they've had on the music industry. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the time an Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes at the President of the United States in protest of America's occupation of Iraq; the creation of the Hollywood commercial that changed advertising forever; and the ascent of the first Aboriginal MP.(Photo: Marion Rung performing at the Intervision Song Contest in 1980.
