In “Small against Big” young challengers compete against celebrities in duels. Helene Fischer was also there on Saturday.
Who can correctly recognize more songs by Helene Fischer (37) after one second? The hit queen and ten-year-old Giulia faced this task on November 20 in the show “Small versus large – the unbelievable duel” in the first.
“I’m totally crazy about that”
“I know all the Helene Fischer songs by heart, can only identify each title by means of a single second, and I’m better at it than the interpreter herself,” said the young superfan, who has twice been on stage at Fischer’s concerts, in front of the Shipment safe. And when her big moment came, Giulia was also right. While the young challenger always quickly recognized the right songs, Fischer actually had several minor problems.
Her older songs in particular are a “great challenge” with around 125 songs and Fischer also has “great respect” for the task ahead. Accordingly, she was able to recognize some pieces very quickly, but then had to ponder on others. At “Phenomenon” she got big eyes. “What was that about?” Asked Fischer himself and wanted to hear the second segment one more time. “I’m really crazy about that,” she admitted, but then typed correctly. At first she wasn’t sure about “Mitten im Paradies” either. “I really don’t know at the moment,” she had to admit to “Our day” and was wrong with her tip “You catch me and let me fly”.
Big surprise for Giulia
At the age of ten, she herself often stayed in her room and, among other things, either sang, acted or recorded cassettes with dubbing, Fischer also explained on the show. Fortunately, today’s success “didn’t come overnight” and she was able to “grow into it very slowly”. A musical dream has not yet come true for her. She would like to sing with Ed Sheeran (30) or Michael Bublé (46). A “personal highlight” would be a duet with Celine Dion (53).
In addition, Fischer got her fans in the mood for her planned mega concert in Munich next summer. She not only performed two songs, but also declared that the “brilliant and spectacular show” should then “top everything”. The star had a very special surprise for his challenger: she invited Giulia and her whole family to the upcoming event.
