With a wafer thin lead of the Duo “S sat!sters” at Melodifestivalen by: Carlotta Truman and Laurita Spinelli Germany will be represented in may in Tel Aviv. But who are the two singers are?
For this to occur, the two singers came together inside: On a rotating stage, they presented their English-language Song, “Sister”, about two sisters who find eternal quarrel to each other. He begins with the lines “I’m tired of losing”, which was a factor for some users on the Internet already as a reference to the often poor results of German ESC-participants.
Carlotta (19) and Laurita (26) have left the German preliminary decision, you have a very strong competitor field and the Ticket to Tel Aviv ersungen. Their power ballad “Sister” was written by several experienced composers extra for the ESC: Laurell Barker, Marine Kaltenbacher, Tom Oehler and Thomas Stengaard. The latter has been written in the last year to Michael Schultes winning song “You Let Me Walk Alone”. A good Omen?
Carlotta loves the limelight

Of your planned dates (Carlotta was just about to move) to separate the two unequal sisters. You have a Marathon in front of you: you will get to know the whole Euro vision world – with city breaks, vocal training and press events. In addition, there will be a bals a trip to Israel. The singers should get to know the country, finally, a German Act in Israel is something very Special, said NDR’s head of Entertainment Thomas Schreiber.
How good are the chances for the two young women, is not yet in sight. The German public opinion is divided – the Song is lots of little catchy. What you of many international ESC-participants, the fact that they are in their own country is still quite unknown, while other countries, such as Russia or Finland send their Superstars. Singing talent alone is not enough to pass the ESC, there is a need for a perfect stage presence, a good Dose of bluntness and authenticity. The German candidate Michael Schulte has shown in the past year, in Lisbon, in front of all, He had never let out of the rest and has remained true to itself. That had earned him such enormous success.
