Greetings from New Zealand Patty! Alas, the only socmed I choose to participate in atm is YT, so if poss link your ESC application to your channel here too?
50 (!) years ago I believe it was the ESC that launched Sweden's ABBA onto the global music stage. Perhaps it's time for history to repeat but this time for you and Germany!😁
You've got my vote for this one from Down Under! Regardless of the ESC outcome, Melodies of Hope needs to get some great commercial radio airplay too. God knows after what we've been through the last nearly 3 years (on top of what's still ongoing for Ukraine), the world definitely needs some Melodies of Hope 💗

I can just see this song on the radio getting global air time while also being an anime theme song. Very strong Main Character (MC) vibes.
