Interview with Lena Meyer-Landrut from Germany

We had an interview with Lena Meyer-Landrut from Germany.

[@sistersst4622]

Why is everybody criticizing her English, this is not her first language of course its not perfect, I think the important thing is that she can have a conversation in that language, and sheis young, she has a lot of time to improve.

[@horilaw424]

To those saying that her English is awful....what the heck. Also, I'm in love with her accent.

[@maggiewang2475]

Her English is great.

[@slipsonic]

I would love to meet this girl, she is so humble and real, and her accent is way cute!!

[@strxwberry4766]

She just had a baby with someone else. Sorry mate

For God's sake!! Not all people born to speak English automatically. For those who criticise her English and not from Germany, Can you speak in German FLUENTLY?

[@juliabielaszewska144]

Yeah

[@vogelmeister6809]

i wish i could speak german fluently

[@kunoellis8968]

Yes i can. So im officially allowed to criticize her English right?

[@Adolphification]

@@kunoellis8968 a native english speaker who loves to unnecessarily bitch about the english of a non native speakers is usually an asshole

[@esrarengizkasaba5308]

Sure why people don't get it

[@KirbyisCoool]

For those who say her English is terrible well at least she's trying I would like to see any of you speak perfect German! -.-

[@BENJB220]

Funny is that most of the complaining people are actually from Germany and that´s just sad. There are so many people in Germany who speak very bad English (my English is bad too). Because they fucking dub anything in Germany. Every Movie, every Series. And to all them 14 years old bitches, who think they are so much better, i want to see you in a TV-INTERVIEW speaking perfect English.

[@BENJB220]

***** Yes I´m German ;) ... I really don´t know why they dub everything, but most people are used to it and won´t watch a movie in English (most cinemas don´t even show the original version)... they dub movies very well, they often use the same dubber for famous actors (with a similar voice), but still things get lost in translation (like: jokes, puns, accents)...

[@sarahk1856]

Her English really isn't that bad, not every European learns English their entire lives.

[@ai-kt3hy]

English is a universal language, not only for the Europe nor America and any continent else

[@Theuselessguitarist]

@@ai-kt3hy It obviously isn’t considering your grammar.

[@MrEvander1991]

i love her accent too and her smile :)

[@frozen_tortus]

One of the humbled girls I ever have chance to see with so much success. She is really someone who young people should look up to.

[@jlugoholt]

"it would make me happy really happy, If I can come under top10, that would be good" And she made it, she was top 1, really deserving !!! Greetings from Colombia and I don't know what people complain, I understand her so well ! ;)

[@brennankane3585]

She seems like a really neat person, as well as being very cute. You've got so much talent Lena, keep up the great work!

[@Pruneism]

she speaks pretty good english, love her accent!

[@lilymarin5638]

why is everyone criticizing her English?? i think it's pretty good for that not being her native language.

[@richgc3608]

Still speaks English better than some English people!!

[@chickensupdude]

she's so cute (:

[@arenpetrosyan4995]

Do you speak german perfect? NO!!! Stop criticizing her english...

[@SJ-ek9tp]

It's perfectly, not perfect in that context :P

[@esrarengizkasaba5308]

if this girl was turkish , you would criticize with a very rude way.

[@arenpetrosyan4995]

@@esrarengizkasaba5308 umm no i wouldn’t?? that makes no sense i ain’t someone who hates people bc of their nationality

[@kingstream8517]

Her accent is soooo beautiful! Love this song mostly coz of it!!

[@MissAnnathepanda]

Aw, you sound so sweet here, Lena! Love from Norway

[@straksparty3425]

I find her accent hot xD

[@user-ym6gu9xy1e]

Don't we all😂

[@AdrianaBorsWelcome]

Lena- your simplicity in your personality is what will will people's hearts the most! I deeply respect you for that!! :)

[@zebrahh132]

aww shes so adorable! saw her in concert today...awesome ;D

[@nmatija]

Damn, this girl is so cute!! I can overlook those slooooow answers

[@thelostsapphire4590]

Is she the girl from The Voice Kids Germany?

[@Squishdabomb]

Ja

[@maggiewang2475]

Yup! :)

[@danielarodriguezoropeza9008]

Yes, she is

[@MsBlueyes91]

ohh I simply adore her she´s so sweet! How can anyone hate this girl? She is simple and modest and i really like her! Congrats Lena from Romania!

[@Dallebp]

I just love her... Just see her singing satelite at the eurovision, made me fall...

[@sant_vauls]

For those who criticise her English, I would like to see you speak better then her

[@RikoScouse]

Most people do. Especially pupils. I don't know about her language skills now, but back then it was just awful. And what made it so awful wasn't that she lacked vocabulary or that there were grammatical mistakes, that I don't care about. But the fake accent, that wannabe-Cockney was just painful -.-

[@christiantherkildsen5767]

@@RikoScouse as i understand, germans learn to use that accent in school. So its not her being cockey, but just what she learned

[@ppmmrr]

"I do forget everything" Well yeah, it would be great if you'd remember the lyrics to your own songs, it's kinda cute tho :)

[@Dessyr3]

she.s modest and natural .. and her accent makes the song better! I hope she.ll come in a concert in my country! best regards from romania

[@FuckingPrincessAda]

She is so cool!!! I like her music very much!!!

[@finalninjadog]

Lena Meyer Landrut is such a good singer! i really like her songs! :D

[@joeosborn8125]

So pretty, so beautiful! Love your English and I know it well. I'm an old guy from Oklahoma so here's a old phrase Lena. "I dig your Chilli" LOL (could that description of you be 'Drifty' Love ya sweet lady.

[@Alex4u]

Legend. I love her!

[@StellaPersefona]

I'm really happy that she won ;]. She has a great voice, she's so pretty and very nice. Her English is very good. Of course she has some accent but that's pretty normal ^__^. Anyhow, I loved her song "Satellite". Lena is an amazing singer. Whenever I watch her videos or listen to her songs, I'm then even more proud of my german roots ;].

[@reedezycandrinkezy]

she got pissed after he said 'the songwriters of satellite"

[@p0531d0n]

God bless Stefan Raab for bringing this to life :)

[@xXjackwillsXx]

amazingggg!

[@egji19]

really amazing!!!carry on Lena!!!

[@laurax3lovee]

"verplant it's in german" :-)

[@rainman02]

She's adorable and she was simply the best. Congats from Romania!

[@rankoutsider1]

I think her accent is what makes the song really good, and if you didn't know she was from Germany, you may think she's from the uk nearly. Her song is brilliant!!

[@Lttaylortt]

I love lena. My favourite song of hers is wild & free

[@nippinka]

'very thankful and grateful' she always says it ;p

[@slidenapps]

good job Lena on winning and on your interview.

[@diesunddas22]

Liebe Lena, ... ich bin auf Deine Zukunft gespannt und drücke ganz fest die Daumen !

[@chitithoti]

Bless her

[@Nikki94here]

i love that she keeps it real :)

[@hazard04]

Hearing her speak reminds me of my friend from Germany when she was on exchange. It brings back memories. (=

[@Dallebp]

I just love her... Just see her singing satelite at the eurovision, made me fall...

[@elish80]

im trying to learn spanish (german later on) and im having trouble with it, so its really refreshing to see someone having trouble with english, sharing the feeling.

[@LpFr3aK]

she won because she always was like she is "in real life". she didn't try to trick anyone. I love her

[@MAKSASSSS]

u look really nice person n i love your accent in the song :P

[@josephlandrut4154]

Lena I love to watch and listen to this video and although my age is 83 I am always considering that one day you will visit me here in Evesham as we belong to the same family go German Descendants.

[@TheBianchi1]

i love this girl,her accent is lovely...she is great

[@OneMinuteOfMe]

I like her voice when she is speaking

[@syndatha]

I think some of you need to remember that the ESC is a singing contest, not an english speaking contest - LOL Lena is very talented, and charming - and only the future will prove whether she has the staying power to last in the music business or not.

[@saudimarcus]

I love the song and Lena is only awesome. Shes best in the world for me. From Lovisa in sweden.

[@metarocks81]

she would like to be in the top 10....how sweet CONGRATULATIONS TO THE FIRST PLACE!!!!

[@spykissa2]

i love her! from finland

[@whiteribbonman1]

I LOVE how she demonstrates her thought at 5:51!! She looks to be so much fun to hang with, just like the German women I was friends with in Stuttgart!! They were SO interesting and fun. Just hearing her talk makes me think of sitting at a sidewalk cafe, having a coffee and smelling the fresh German air while listening to Deutsch being spoke all around me and, ha, having not a clue what was being said. God love Deutschland and it's people!

[@iamsultana]

Where could I find an interview where Lena reveals her favourites of ESC 2011?

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

@SakiSenpai Thankyou!

[@Pallazero]

I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@OferAharonov]

She gave really good show, and after I saw this interview I understood that she naturally cute girl.

Lena as we learn we teach other but you I love, based of your love for others.

[@King7Kanis]

[@SvenRedBeard]

@Theommas shes is both an amazing singer, easy to understand and her english makes her songs that much better.

[@DaggerXS]

cool song

[@dalerozario]

respect for the song writers

[@rehanisl]

i luv her

[@joeylras]

Well you could certainly say she made it to the top ten!!

[@darthmonkey91]

@Ksueleman I think what she means is that she doesn't want to feel like she has to become better all the time. She's good enough right now and she is pleased with that!

[@Adrianaofficial]

@ragnarkisten yeah :) she actually sounds way more aussie in her songs! shes great :D i loved her song last year and i voted for her to win. so glad she did :)

[@papadreus]

i love jou Lena ,

[@aGermanGirl95]

@kryccTwiZone O.O in which interview was that?!? i didn't see it! O.O please, can you say me, how the video calls?

[@Salaveciitis]

Way to go, good song, nice girl. Wach her face while she is singing. One time it shows that she is working on it, trying to do the best she can. On the other time she is realy enjoing the singing. Well, i wish her the best in the future and the Eurovision is a good place to get her way up in carrier.

[@87mrks]

@DirtMakesMeWonder you really got to mail me the name on the series, and perhaps what episode.

[@josephlandrut4154]

Lena, the English word you are looking for is - scaterbrain

[@TheMischa2sven]

We are in Germany right now and watched this contest too(like erveryone in our hotel-public viewing..Was great actually) Did anyone notice that she wore two different shoes ?!

[@KreinMr]

a good song!

[@brotherscro]

shes great :)

[@RarityGalora]

Who is she referring to at 5:47 ?

[@L85Game5]

@Credative why did you search for, ;o ?

[@SWildMF]

She's very endearing.

[@MsBlackiiee]

This was our listening exam for 'English', lol :) And earlier that day, we also had a listening exam for 'Deutsch', 'German', I think, about the Eurovision Song Contest. It was a crazy day :)

[@Meirith]

I love her =)

[@natashavikari]

I love her accent!!

[@leclaireblue]

everyone's nace...xD I love her accent, its so special and cute ^^

[@Wooaaahhh]

Lena's english is very good, I'm english and understand everything she said and its perfect english

[@AnEggInTryingTimes]

I don't think she comes across at rude. She's German and may not speak fluent English, plus she's 19 and she's away from home with Germany watching her. That's a huge thing to have on your shoulders at her age. She's a brilliant singer and I love her album hope she releases another one. Go Lena!!!!

[@vahens]

She is so Angel

[@pupa789456]

love her !! she's sooo great...and her english is also very good...like british accent

[@denelson777]

Oh you are special !! Yes !! you were looking for scattered in your head.....welcome to my world ! smile !!

[@BlauerBooo]

@Zeyto02 Stefan Raab, that casting boss, composed the song "Love me" and wrote the lyrics together with her. The composers of satellite even did not know that her song was selected until some weeks before the show. the woman of the two of them (american) even did not know the esc. but they wrote it as a kind of ballade - this version was lena's interpretation. a more "original" one is that of the other finalist: jennifer braun (also here on youtube).

[@rebelindisguise]

shes so beautiful .. i love her sie ist einfach toll

[@12elpida]

@AsOzIaLoS so if you want to study in a university you need to speak english right ? (and german of course)

[@xelina7446]

For everyone who criticize her English she is now (2020) speaking fluid englisch and so good and even not everyone can speak englisch that good when it isn’t even their first language

[@FuleHar]

die ist echt gut ! Welt wir kommen !

[@1996Takis1996]

she is so cute!!
