Fadys "German Dream"

Am vergangenen Wochenende sorgte mit Alexander Rybak ein junger Mann mit weißrussischen Wurzeln für den größten Triumph, den Norwegen jemals bei einem Grand Prix der Eurovision feiern konnte. Er stand wenige Jahre zuvor im Finale des norwegischen Pendants von "American Idol" und heute ist der einstige Castingstar mit "Migrationshintergrund" aus der norwegischen Musikszene nicht mehr wegzudenken, er ist spätestens seit Samstag das Idol einer ganzen Nation.

Auch wir in Deutschland können uns glücklich schätzen, verfügen wir doch über ein vergeichbares Ausnahmetalent, einen jungen Mann, der erst vor wenigen Jahren aus dem Libanon hierher kam, dabei seine deutschen Wurzeln (wieder-)entdeckte und der ebenfalls über eine quotenstarke Castingshow populär wurde.


Die Rede ist von Fady Maalouf. Er gehört zu jener Sorte Zuwanderer, die nicht in unsere Sozialsysteme, sondern in unsere Herzen eingewandert sind. Was er heute zu sagen hat, ist schon eine Liebeserklärung an seine neue Heimat:



“Die Leute sprechen immer nur vom “american dream” – ich finde aber, dass der “german dream” viel toller ist. Deutschland ist ein Land, in dem wir die Chance haben, unsere Träume zu leben! Das geht hier, dafür bin ich ein Beispiel und ich würde mich freuen, wenn ich ein paar Jugendliche auch motivieren könnte, was zu tun. Sie können es schaffen! [...] Ich möchte Deutscher werden, ich möchte Deutscher sein.”


Nachdem Fady schon vor einigen Monaten in der "Zeit" ein kluges Statement zum Thema Migration abgegeben hat, wird er sich heute abend bei Maybritt Illner zu Wort melden: um 22.15 Uhr im ZDF.

Schön blöd von Deutschland nicht mit Fady zum ESC nach Moskau gefahren zu sein. Mit ihm wären wir mindestens Top Ten geworden!

Lieber Dominik, wie wahr, wie wahr! Mitten ins Herz ist Fady eingewandert. Ihm wurde, seitens unfähigen managements, Anstieg unglaublich erschwert, und trotzdem lebt er sein Traum weiter und wird dadurch nur noch stärker und kluger.

Obwohl Fady besitzt eine Eigenschaft die eigentlich so einfach, und in dieser Einfahheit, genial ist-er besitzt die Klugheit des Herzens. Das hört man.

Ich als Zuwanderer aus dem früheren Sowietunion, lebe auch mein "German dream" und kann es nich nachvollziehen, wenn ich höre, daß in Deutschland "lebt man nicht soooo" und daß alles schlecht ist usw..

Diejenigen die solchen negativen Worte für die Wahl-/Heimat finden, sollen es versuchen, woanders zu leben, gar in die Drittländer zu gehen und ein "Probeleben" aufzuziehen versuchen.. dann wird man schnell erkennen, was man hat.

Allein die Gedanke, daß wir 60 Jahre ohne Krieg und Konflikte leben dürfen, ist ein Grund zum jübeln.

Ich bin so stolz auf Fady!

So ganz haut der Vergleich aber wohl nicht. Alexander spielt seit seinem 5. Lebensjahr Klavier und Geige. Zudem ist er auch schon in jungen Jahren sein eigener Komponist. Hoffe wir können von Fady in dieser Richtung auch mal was hören ;-)

Die gesamte Entwicklung Fadys (künstlerisch wie menschlich) stimmt mich traurig... Ich will den FADY des Castings und der frühen Mottoshows zurück (musikalisch wie optisch)...

Fan ohne Namen said...

Ich schaue, staune und suche, aber das einzige, was ich momentan entdecken kann, sind zweifelhafte Imagewandel bzw. eine verzweifelte Imagesuche, ja, eine immer steiler sich windende Abwärtsspirale. Single im Sommer? Dazu müsste es doch bald Promo geben, aber man hört nichts, gar nichts... Ich weiss nicht, wie der "Junge" das noch packen will. Traurig, einfach nur traurig und schade um dieses Talent und auch diesen Menschen.

Dominik Hennig said...

Also ich fand Fadys Auftritt gelungen. Daß diese Runde leider tagespolitisch überfrachtet wurde, dafür kann ja der Fady nichts. Was würde ich wohl sagen, wenn ich, auch nachdem ich vielleicht schon 3 Jahre im Libanon gelebt hätte, plötzlich im libanesischen Fernsehen in einer Talkrunde mit Nasrallah und Hariri (sofern die miteinander reden!) säße und deren unterschiedliche Auffassungen zu den Zeitläuften aufeinanderprallen sähe?

Gut, daß Fady auch den Punkt machte, daß ihm bislang (und gottlob!) nie von marodierenden Rechtsextremen, wohl aber von der berüchtigten, kleinlichen, schwerfälligen und schikanösen deutschen Bürokratie das Leben schwer gemacht worden war (etwa wenn sein Vater ihn besuchen möchte und zu diesem Unterfangen als in Berlin Geborener eigens ein Visum benötigt!).

Zur Runde allgemein: einig waren sich ja leider alle, von Seehofer bis Wagenknecht, im wohlfeilen Herunterbeten eines antikapitalistischen Katechismus! Öffentlich-rechtlicher Bullshit! Diese Krise, die wir jetzt haben, ist die Folge nicht von Markt-, sondern von Staatsversagen, insbesondere auch von Planwirtschaft in der Geldproduktion! Zu meinem Verdruß war niemand da, der da mal radikalliberal gegen den Strich bürstete.

Wie wir aus der Krise kommen? Ich bleibe bei meinem erzliberalen Credo: Open Borders (freie Einwanderung), Open Trade (Freihandel und zwar unbeschränkt!!!) und Open Minds (Gedankenfreiheit, also auch das Recht, gerade jetzt den Markt als moralische Instanz verteidigen zu dürfen und dem Staat als vermeintlichen Retter in der Not zu mißtrauen).

you make it easy on yourself. You make different challenges like

Below are listed a few popular pubs where one

it also gave rise to the need for a fresh start, which came in the
