As Adler started when Spatz landed

The uncritical adoration of fans for their Lena and even the vocabulary they use in their praises about them and their alleged talent has almost religious character. And what is just as in religions: You have to believe in it, simply because nothing provable behind it. And when Lena a belief is also necessary. Because if you take a close look, as it is with their musical abilities, then you might see in a gaping void. One can Lenas kind like it or not, but singing talent can moor on clear criteria, as with any fitness test at a music school. But when Lena hardly singing technical skills can be recognized even with benevolent consideration. Justified criticism is blocked by the fans immediately. Instead, eagerly pointed out that they've finally won the ESC and therefore just yet would have a great talent. But if you nachhakt and the fans asks to how many ESC winners the past 20 years they still remember by name, then think of the most only the violinist from last year, and at best, Lordi. And why is that, you might be wondering? Maybe that's why because of the ESC, despite the more than 100 million viewers just yet is only a pure show event, a multinational Happening for the fun of the moment, to play in the musical aspects only a minor role. The Lena won's nice, but you should not be large-what fancy it, because music does not mean much. What stands out really uncomfortable during the Lena euphoria, is that everyone of Lena's talent is in doubt is defamed by her fans the same as envious and defeatists. Also that here every 1 or 2 star review, is bombarded with the same negative clicks, not just speaking for the tolerance of these people. So dear fans: Between enthusiastic admiration on the one hand and real denigrate the other hand, there is also the possibility of a thing easy to look realistic. And with such a sober gaze falls on a relatively fast, who played the most inglorious role really in this whole Lena Mania: namely the alleged fourth power in the state. After all, what has brought here to opinion making among the people of the press, should actually each scribbler still takes seriously the word journalism, blush drive face.

The whole album is actually quite a sham and indeed on many different senses. Just because Lena is so often referred to by its admirers as fresh and different, you are at then listen astounded that this album really again includes only the usual. That is what what you have heard of countless other casting asterisk often enough. From beginning to end everything seems like popular music set pieces tinkered together. The music ripples flat and abwechslungsarm then, the texts always remain shallow, and no obvious statement. Everything sounds consistently good and harmless. It simply lacks the variety and the fire that would repeatedly listen exciting and make it interesting. The whole package of media hype, hype and USFO ESC victory promised something new and exciting. But when the final product is then obtained only cobbled together in no time Allerweltsalbum without character, without charm, without heart. The opinion of many reviewers here that this album was just a blip and that the next will finally meet the expectations, also seems to spring only a diffuse hope. For where should put this potential. It would have to at least be heard anything about it on this album. But you can not hear or what you hear seems to be little upgradeable. Lenas intonation is quite wrong, you hardly hear rhythm and they do not seem to remember what key to play the music straight. The fans now reply often that it is not so important if anyone could sing purely formal or not. The main thing is it, that one liked the end result. Well, that sounds like saying: You know a great painter, though the did not know how to deal with a brush, but mostly he manage to somehow bring the creative color on the wall. If you are honest then you have probably notice is based on an existing Lenas success neither vocal talent, nor on any other musical skills. The true origin of their appeal is well founded primarily in their appearance, in their seemingly open, natural and positive way. Whether all now really is genuine or whether it's just put on, everyone can decide for themselves. The target group she speaks well of especially the middle-class center, which is an ideal representatives of their believes to recognize themselves in her, as evidenced by the many exuberant cheers in the conservative press. The popular music began in the 50s and 60s, even as a revolt against the establishment, today it has itself become so. Relaxed and adapted it bobs up and down in front of him and said in desperation already dwarfs to giants.
