And there are seven winners: the singer EES (35 years old) and his group Namibian Yes-Ja!, Ensure a first place on the podium and thus win a contract with Sony. Thus, the group of seven musicians around the German Namibian Eric Sell, which performs under the stage name EES, prevails not only against the solo acts Jan-Marten Block (23) and Sheila Rothberg (28), but also against the second group Wait Of The World But before the awards ceremony, the four finalists present a thrilling show in the final.
"It was a winning performance"
A first strong point is the opening medley of the four jurors
Jennifer Weist (31)
sido (37), Ignacio Uriarte (32) and
Thomas Anders (55). All the singers give a short excerpt from one of their greatest hits and most of all Anders brings back the old days of Modern Talking for a short while with the song "Cheri Cheri Lady".
The winning group EES and the group Yes-Ja! Will finally debut with Sky 1. With the self-written song "Just Do It", they meet the heart of the juror and mentor Jennifer Weist and sing in German for the first time since the beginning of the season. In particular, the singer EES has previously been away from the German language, but can feel this song in his own heart. The jury and the public are delighted.
Jan-Marten Block, 23, gives in and plays the song "Sanctuary" of the band Welshly Arms. Thomas Anders and Sido are of the same opinion: the solo artist from North Friesland shows with this performance the best vocal performance of the season. Especially Mentor Sido already considers his protégé as the winner, but after the appearance of the five boys of Wait Of The World, he is worried about his soloact. The Munich group, who knows each other from school, makes the scene vibrate with the transcribed song "Ruin". "It was a winning performance," confirms Sido. And Thomas Anders is also enthusiastic: "You proved the X factor for me".
Sheila Rothberg from Flensburg finishes the first round with her rendition of Sia's "Elastic Heart" and wipes her tears of emotion after her appearance. However, in the opinion of the jury, she can not compete with the other candidates.
"The best singer of the season"
In the second round, EES and his group Yes-Ja! Band bring an African touch to the stage "X Factor". The scenery is reminiscent of a jungle, the outfits of the seven musicians remain faithful to their African style and the four dancers engage in a real duel swing with the singer EES. Although the winning single "Try, Try, Try" is back in English, it is exciting Jennifer Weist.
Jan-Marten Block was delighted by the German song "Los", in which he not only emotionally treated his aspirations to new adventures and abandoned his homeland, but also went on stage for the first time. Surrounded by sparkling dancers and a fire show, even Sido dances enthusiastically at the jury table. He wrote the chorus to the song. After the performance, there are ovations and Thomas Anders is certain: it was Schlager!
The guys from Wait Of The World are once again choosing their "Glacier" hit of the first gig and delivering a phenomenal performance. Even Jennifer Weist is sure at the end: "the singer Ben is the best singer of the season". Sheila plays her own song "Bulletproof" in front of a starry sky glittering with a shower of comets, making her first appearance, according to the jury.
"You have remained faithful from the beginning"
In an exciting final act, EES and his group then beat the other finalists and can not believe his luck after the final show. "I'm always beside me and I can not understand everything yet," he tries to find the right word. "My vision has always been to show African music to people all over the world, and I'm far from that dream," he says radiantly. Born and raised in Namibia, the musician sees a "mission of life" to spread African rhythms out of Africa. "I would be happy to show you more", he hopes for his future career in Germany.
Jury and mentor Jennifer Weist, who was in the final with two groups, is thrilled with the victory of the German-African group. "I saw her in the cast and I immediately knew:" They will reach the final, "recalls the singer of
Jennifer RostockWhy did such an extraordinary group win? "They have remained true to themselves from the start, in all respects," said Weist, confident that the careers of EES and Yes-Ja-Band will be difficult.
