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

I liked El Diablo but how many times are Cyprus going to try and re-create Eleni's Fuego moment before they move on? :LOL:

"El Diablo" wasn't a "Fuego" moment for me though (after all it will remain a reductive Lady Gaga copy-paste soundwise)... I'm all for more "Fuegos" though... bring 'em on! xcheer

Why does Cyprus always get televote points from San Marino? those aren't even legit televote points

Elena might have done worse than Tamta on paper but did much better in the televote. Tamta got 24 standard points from Greece and Georgia, 1 point from the UK and some points from the fake San Marino votes. That is 1 "actual" televote point for Tamta whereas Elena got 24 (not countring Greece and San Marino). The 12 points from Russia are weird but Cyprus does not seem to be rigging results like other countries and Russian televote should be hard to manipulate.

San Marino is usually in the same allocation pot with Greece so probably the Greek televote is always among the ones used to calculate the vote of San Marino. Greece also gets high points from them because probably Cyprus and Albania are also included.

Her final performance was better energy wise, but I noticed she forgot some dance moves. All in all, the whole performance is amazing, and maybe the best staged female bop. Buuuut, this was not a song for opening grand final. She is such a sweet heart, and El Diablo is still (and will probably be) one of my favorite esc 2021 songs. I have listened to it, probably like 110 times. Oh and this is my favorite entry from Cyprus, ever. I like Elena's Amore and Logia songs too.
I wished she landed in top10, it sucks :/

thought it was gonna do a top five maybe after the rehearsals, then I realized that a top ten would perhaps be what this could be achieve
could've maybe gotten a bit more telepoints in the final with a better running order, but not much -- Elena didn't doo too much damage in the semi anyway with a better draw

I think it deserved to do better though, this was much much better than Tamta

At first I found it a shame that she did worse than Tamta, but then I realized that 2021 was much, much more competitive than 2019. Replay would have probably been in shambles had it been performed in 2021.

Suddenly it comes as suggestion to me on Youtube today. :)

The studio version is excellent. The live performance has failed and costed many points for Cyprus.
