Although there exist grammars, vocabularies, and a translation of the Bible, there is no common standard for how to write the language.
There is poetry written in various Austro-Bavarian dialects, and many pop songs use the language as well, especially ones belonging to the Austropop wave of the 1970s and 1980s.
Although Austro-Bavarian as a spoken language is in daily use in its region, Standard German is preferred in the mass media.
Because in advance, a specialist jury of music and media experts was called upon to choose their favourites from the seventies, eighties and from 1990 to present day.
From this jury valuation, as well as sales and listening charts, the media echo caused by each song and the extent to which a title was a talking point and was able to embody itself in the collective consciousness as a hit, came the Top 10 of Austropop.
These ten titles (three from the seventies, three from the eighties and four from 1990 to today) are in the grand finale for the public's vote.
