In the telephone vote, 94 percent of viewers voted positively, more than any other appearance before.
A manager became aware of Schmidt through the performance and signed him. He negotiated for him a record deal with the entertainment company Universal Music Group . Produced by Jens Kuphal and Götz von Sydow , Andre's debut single Why Du? . The guitar pop song is about his buddy who took his girlfriend off his feet.
