So nearly everybody in Germany knows her. For herself the hype was quite ungew\u00f6hnlich (unusual) because she was about to make her final school exams during the casting and the endless Auftritte (performances).<\/p>\n<p>So Samstagnacht (Saturday night) was the big night and Germany turned into a big party as the Eurovision song contest was broadcast. Thousands of people took part in private or public viewings and supported \u201ctheir\u201d Lena in Oslo\/Norwegen (Norway). In some cities it almost felt like the finals of the soccer world championship! People were really gl\u00fccklich (happy) about this. The Effekt (effect) of the whole event was amazing. When I came to work on Monday morning a lot of my co-workers were singing Lena\u00b4s song and were in a really good Stimmung (mood).<\/p>\n<p>It\u00b4s the second time that Germany has won the contest\u2026though Germany took part in the Eurovision song contest every Jahr (year) since 1956 (as the only nation by the way). The last time was 28 years before in 1982: Singer Nicole has won with her song \u201cEin bi\u00dfchen Friede\u201d (a little bit of peace) which is still very bekannt (famous) in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>The tradition of the contest is, that the winner nation will be the organizer and Gastgeber (host) for the following year. So in 2011 the Eurovision Song Contest will be held in Germany. And it\u00b4s already rumored that Lena should sing again to defend the title. \u00a0So you can bet that there will be a good party again!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On May 29th, Germany has won the 55th Eurovision Song Contest.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":""},"categories":[3,108,913],"tags":[2034,3181,9191,2513,2534],"class_list":["post-335","post","type-post","status-publish","hentry","category-culture","category-music","category-traditions","tag-contest","tag-eurovision-song-contest","tag-performance","tag-singer","tag-song"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=335"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/335\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8478,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/335\/revisions\/8478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
