Germany in EuroMusic Song Contest 3

Germany participated in the third edition of the EuroMusic Song Contest. The German broadcaster, ADR, was responsible for their act.

Selection process
For their third participation the German broadcaster decided to select their submission internally. For this edition, like the two previous onces, the EBU decided that the countries have to perform a song in their own national language. Because of this, Germany had to select a song in the German language.

Later on, they selected "Liebeskapitän" as act for the third edition in Nicosia.

At EuroMusic Song Contest
Germany was drawn to perform tenth following Spain and preceding France.

Germany received only three points. The finished 15th, and last. It was their first time that they finished in the bottom of the scoreboard.

Voting
The voting during the final consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Germany and awarded by Germany in the final.
