Cyprus CYPRUS 2022 - Andromache - Ela

[escYOUnited]

Melodies ringing through my head when you lay eyes on me
The rush is from my perfect view, so heavenly
Come and charge me up like electricity
My remedy

All in my, in my head
All in my, lucid dreams
Take my pain away
Ela ela, ela ela

Stin ankaliá mou, zíse álli mia méra
Stin ankaliá mou, páme mazí pio péra
Sta óneirá mou, valé fterá kai péta
You can be my only one
Na-na-na-na-ni-aman

Oh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ela, ela, ela
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ela, ela, ela

Chemistry
Moving to the beat in perfect harmony
I'll show you what's it's like beyond your fantasy
My remedy

All in my, in my head
All in my, lucid dreams
Take my pain away
Ela ela, ela ela

Stin ankaliá mou, zíse álli mia méra
Stin ankaliá mou, páme mazí pio péra
Sta óneirá mou, valé fterá kai péta
You could be my only one
Na-na-na-na-ni-aman

Oh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ela, ela, ela
Oh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh
Ela, ela, ela

Aman…
Take my pain away
Ela ela, ela ela

Stin ankaliá mou, zíse álli mia méra
Stin ankaliá mou, páme mazí pio péra
Sta óneirá mou, valé fterá kai péta
You can be my only one
Na-na-na-na-ni-aman

Ela, ela, ela
Ela, ela, ela​

I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY enjoy this. Years better than "Replay" and "El Diablo". Love the traditional instrumentation, love the greek and the video is beautifully made. It's not a winner but it's a guarantee top10 if they manage to do a nice staging. Please keep the 70's vibe look, it fits the song perfectly. It's a ! Ela, ela, elaaaaa

It's average but i wouldn't rule it out for a good result yet. In facebook pages most people don't seem very excited though.

It's good production-wise, feels dreamy, sultry, ethnic, and will be good for radio play. You guys have also said this sounds like some of her previous singles, and I agree, I can see that Andromache is that seductive type of singer.

However, I have to go back to the MV (for the fourth time) to remember what 'Ela' sounds like. I'm not kidding you, even Monika Liu's song is more memorable than this. This would mean it's forgettable -- and the fact that she's in the first half isn't helping either.

Same I don't remember it either unfortunately. Think it takes a few listens and even then it's difficult to remember!

I was a bit harsh with it yesterday tbh. It is generic but it is a good song and as a nice vibe to it. Also based on the studio versions at least, it is a stand out.

Without listening to it a second time, I have it stuck in my head since this morning, so this is mostly what changed my mind.

 

[Chorizo]

I like this ethnic sound, which is a staple at Eurovision. 7 points.

Finally!!!!! What a beautiful Greek beat.. the way I like...what like??? LOVE!

I loved Greece 2018 so much, but she was quite weak live, unfortunatelly...

I hope this one won't be..

This beat drives me so much...I feel like I'm traveling through lovely Epirus in the early springg, all the way from Ionnina and Pindus mounatains down to medieaval Arta..

Just confusing is the beginning, it starts like some Spanish Andalusian song.. lol

TASTE!
Greece 2018 was my favorite

This is nice but not great now I think.

This is unironically what's played on Greek and Cypriot radios.
But sure go off, you know better.

Not on YouTube anymore

This song will probably be a hit in Greek and Cypriot radios, let's see about the rest of Europe in May.

I like the song, but I wonder if they will switch it up a little bit, to be more uptempo, because they could easily do it. In a sea of slow songs, that could make it stand out more.

An immensely generic Mediterranean song. I listened to the first half of the song, and didn't need more. I do recognize that the song is in the top 20 in the odds.

And what is genuine Cypriot music then?

An immensely generic Mediterranean song.

Generic Mediterranean song? What does that even mean? There isn't a "Mediterranean" sounding that is shared by multiple Southern European nations. Or is that how you describe uptempo songs from the region?

Yiorgos Papadopoulos is a famous Cypriot singer and writer. He wrote Andromachis 1st single and he has nothing to do with Stefanias dancer apart from their shared name

I love all Cypriot entries since Gravity that is not named Fuego, but I just can't feel this one.
