I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo
I gave it up, I gave it up, because
He tells me I'm his angel, I'm his angel

Tonight we're gonna burn in a party
We're wild as fire that's on the loose
Hotter than sriracha on our bodies
Ta-Taco tamale, yeah, that's my mood
All this spicy melts my icy edges, baby, it's true
Tonight we're gonna burn in a party
It's heaven in hell with you

Mama-mamacita, tell me what to do
Lo-la-lo-la-loca, I'm breaking the rules

I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo
I gave it up, I gave it up, because
He tells me I'm his angel, I'm his angel
Oh-oh-oh, el diablo, el diablo
I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo

Tonight we're gonna dance in the moonlight
Droppin' our lashes on the floor
Hair flip-flip made you look twice
Touch me, touch me, mi amor
All this spicy melts my icy edges, baby, for sure
Tonight we're gonna dance in the moonlight
And then we're gonna do it some more

Mama-mamacita, tell me what to do
Lo-la-lo-la-loca, I'm breaking the rules

I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo
I gave it up, I gave it up, because
He tells me I'm his angel, I'm his angel
Oh-oh-oh, el diablo, el diablo
I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo

I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo
I gave it up, I gave it up, because
He tells me I'm his angel, I'm his angel
Oh-oh-oh, el diablo, el diablo, oh-oh
I fell in love, I fell in love
I gave my heart to el diablo, el diablo

El diablo​

Elena Tsagrinou - El Diablo - Cyprus

I have been hyped for cypriot entries since 2016, but this song is bad. it is like trying to combine the previous entries in one and it turned out to be a disaster. Too many songs in one. And I am one of those people how hears "Bad Romance" here and it is a poor rip-off. The music video is a shampoo commercial that bad I wouldn't buy it wouldn't I know it a decent shampoo.

Just saw that I forgot to reply. Natalia Kills begs to differ though xthink

Honestly, there should've been a sign or something on that entry saying "safe yourself three minutes and just go watch the original performance"

Fuego and She Got Me are not even melodicly similar... Fuego has that trash music from Greece/Albania/Bulgaria/Romania...
She Got Me is something that Enrique Iglesias would sing...
Ahahahaha. I don't like it: it's trash from the balkans. I love it: Enrique could sing it ahahahaha

Journalist:Υοu are so beautiful,positive,joyful girl.

Elena:I try,whatever I do,to keep my charachter in it and generally look at things with a positive vibe.

I think in the last six months I have lived everything.

I couldn't imagine that there would be these religious reactions .

I expected that everyone would see it as an act ,as a joyful performance which personally I will accomplish with joy but there were some reactions which scared me a bit.

Right now I am in the competition mood.

I am starting thinking of my placement.

At the beginning of this process I hadn' t thought about that.

I used to say to myself there' s no much importance of which place I will get.

But now I am in the mood of championship.

My daily program is very hard.

But this is making me want to have the best result in the contest.

I have certain hour that I sleep and I wake up in order to have the power to accomplish the daily dance rehearsals which reach over 5 hours a day.

And of course we have the daily vocal cources and the daily diet program .

All these make me concentrated 100% and making me want to be very succesful in the contest.

To go to the contest after Eleni and her second place for Cuprus it s something very good.

I am going to the contest to win.

I work with high grade professionals and this makes me realise how huge it is.

Then the journalist asked her for how long she is with her boyfriend and she replied that she is with him 4 years now and that she is stable in her relationships.

When the journalist told her that as time passes by she and her boyfriend Mike look so much alike
Elena laughed out loud saying that it's something that she is realising herself too .

At last she said that as her boyfriend belongs to the high risk groups as a cancer patient and as she in a more social bubble (working with dancers, interviews, vocal coaches and of course attending Eurovision) she is socially distancing from him to keep him safe and will reunite with him after eurovision and after having a covid test , adding how important and encouraging is for her even one phone call from him during the day and how much she is craving for the vacations the two of them will have ,when the adventure of Eurovision ends.

Elena and her boy friend Mike or Michalis as he likes her to call him

Did anyone know about the blatant copying of this music video:

Cyprus deserve to be disqualified for this alone. It's almost the exact same shot by shot. The NERVE.

I actually like 'El Diablo', but like many people have said, it's BLATANTLY hashing a load of copied styles, visuals etc, with no heart or soul. Copying has always been normal in pop but this is something else, it's grotesque. Again, I do like the song and it's cool but REALLY?!

The problem is blatant rip-off someone else's art without any integrity.

I was being ironic about them being disqualified. I don't think they actually should be disqualified for copying a music video. It just makes me respect the song/artist/creators less, and makes it an entry I have less support for.

Edit: Sardonic, not ironic ;)
