Germany in Junior Eurovision 2024: Bjarne with “Save The Best For Us”
Bjarne, a 10-year-old from the small town of Diepholz in Lower Saxony, enjoys a cosy life in a wooden house with a large garden, where he lives with his parents and older brother.
Bjarne’s first memorable performance was at just six years old, when he sang “Dance Monkey” by Tones and I in front of an audience of 300 people at a sports event. This experience sparked his love for performing on stage. This year, he made it to the semi-finals of The Voice Kids, marking a major milestone in his young career. One of his proudest moments on the show was performing a duet with Spanish-German pop star Álvaro Soler.
In his free time, Bjarne loves jumping on trampolines and designing phone screen wallpapers. He’s also a big Eurovision fan; some of his favourite songs from last year include “The Tower” by Luna and the winning song, “The Code” by Nemo.
What do the “Save The Best For Us” lyrics mean?
This year, Germany brings a bilingual song in German and English, carrying a powerful message about environmental conservation. The song speaks out against pollution and the global issues arising from climate change, urging for solutions to protect the planet for future generations.
The song opens with a reflection on Earth’s natural wonders, questioning whether these beautiful places will still be there tomorrow: “I’ve been to the Amazon and to Bermuda / I discovered the rainforest with my finger on the mobile phone screen / The peaks of the mountains, the colours of the seas / But one day I want to see the world with my own eyes / I have all its wonders in my head / But I wonder, will the wonders still be there tomorrow?”
It goes on to stress that words alone aren’t enough — immediate action is needed to ensure these wonders endure for generations to come. The chorus serves as a plea from the younger generation, asking us to protect the planet for them: “So save the best for us / Save the oceans and the trees, the mountains and the air we breathe.” This song calls listeners to action, combining an inspiring message of unity with a sense of urgency to safeguard our shared home.

Nice song best of luck
This little guy is very charismatic, the song is kind of anthemic, very good package overall, if staged well it will probably get my vote.
Good luck Germany!
I like this song. Not so much as their entry from last year but it ‘s not bad at all.
