"Satellite" is a song by German singer Lena Meyer-Landrut. It was written by American songwriter Julie Frost and Danish songwriter John Gordon and recorded by Meyer-Landrut for Unser Star für Oslo, the German pre-selection show for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010. An uptempo bubbly three-chord song, the lyrics of "Satellite" deal with unconditional love. One out of three songs which Meyer-Landrut presented during the pre-selection final, her version of the song was chosen via televoting on 12 March 2010.
It was made available for digital download the following day, becoming Germany's fastest selling digital release ever. The following week, "Satellite" debuted at number one on the German Singles Chart and has since been certified double platinum.[3] On 29 May 2010, it won the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 in Oslo, scoring 246 points.[4][5] Following its Eurovision victory, "Satellite" went on to be a commercial success across Europe, topping the single charts in six countries and receiving a number of Gold and Platinum certifications. It was later included on Meyer-Landrut's debut album My Cassette Player (2010).
