Have we ever seen an artist representing two nations in the same TISC edition? :d

 

Definitely not in the same TISC, and yes, it's going to be weird :lol: 

 

We needed USA with "Save Your Tears" ft. Ariana Grande, and then it would have been even crazier.

I don't think so.

 

Back when Croatia hosted, Shawn Mendes won for Canada and performed Senorita (ft. Camila Cabello) representing Cuba for the Festival of Music. :p

As we are waiting for the final three entries I would like to say that I will accept the submissions from :MEX :BUL :MLT  until Monday 18:00 CEST if for some valid reason they need extra time to choose a song. I wasn't planning to listen to all the songs in one sitting anyway until that time. Obviously I would much prefer if everyone would submit their song today before the official selection deadline, I am mostly making this exception for @Glen because I am not sure if he will make it in time and Malta has never missed a TISC before. I am planning to post the playlist today after the deadline around 1 am, but I won't if some entries are missing. 

 

As for :TUR if @Mehmet shows any signs of activity until I submit my votes on Wednesday (12:00 CEST) and confirms that he's indeed a former member of this forum, I won't disqualify Turkey. Which means that the Turkish song will be in the playlist, hopefully I won't have to remove it before the voting starts.

 

These are the two absolutely final deadlines from me, I can't delay them any further as they would eat up the time that the jurors need to vote.

No surprises, that the retro 80s disco sound dominated the pop scene here as well in the last year. I wasn't keen on adding such a song, as people are probably tired of the sound by now, and had a dilemma between this and another more traditional song. But given that my last few more specific bulgarian songs didn't translate that well, i thought i'd go more mainstream this time. Time to out-Weeknd The Weeknd :fighting: Lyrics in the video, as per the title :d

:MEX M E X I C O :MEX

 

Mexico's proud to be part of Totallympics Annual International Song Contest one more time, and even with some delay, is ready to present their representatives: the synth pop band Cámilo Séptimo accompanied by past contestant Ximena Sariñana.

 

Beginning as a rock group in 2013, Camilo Séptimo (whose name is a pun on 70´s Spanish singer Camilo Sexto) took a new direction when they met with some members of Costa Rican group Patterns four years later, so far the only entry from Latin America to obtaina prize at TISC's Special Edition in 2020, and decided to experiment with new rhythms and trends. They'll be joined by Sariñana, an artist with over two decades in Mexican entertainment, who this time will be looking to surpass the 21th place she obtained at the Open edition held in the Netherlands 4 years ago.

 

At the Hungarian city of Szeged they'll be performing last year's song Contracorriente, a title that can be translated as "against the flow", with the lyrics further explaining that this is doing the opposite to what common sense would dictate. So, without further delay, the Mexican jury hopes you enjoy this tune.

 

Camilo Séptimo ft. Ximena Sariñana - Contracorriente

 

 

 

 

 

Lyrics in Spanish

 

Spoiler

 

 

Estoy flotando en tu dirección
Indefinidamente me voy
Anclado a tu corazón

 

Voy contracorriente

No sé cómo regresar
Fue por conocerte
Que no puedo funcionar, sin ti

 

Tu cuerpo me llama
Tus ojos me sanan
Tu alma me habla
Me dice por dónde seguir
Y seguirte a ti es lo que quiero

 

Sin ti
Mi fuerza de voluntad se vuelve intermitente
Y en mí no existe la realidad
Donde tú estás ausente

 

Tal vez nunca lo podrás entender
Quizás las palabras sobran aquí
Mejor te lo explico cerca de mí... De mí

 

Tu cuerpo me llama
Tus ojos me sanan
Tu alma me habla
Me dice por dónde seguir
Y seguirte a ti es lo que quiero

 

Tu cuerpo me llama
Tus ojos me sanan
Tu alma me habla
Me dice por dónde seguir
Porque sin ti yo no puedo vivir

 

Voy contracorriente, no sé cómo regresar
Fue por conocerte, que no puedo funcionar sin ti

 

Tu cuerpo me llama
Tus ojos me sanan
Tu alma me habla
Me dice por dónde seguir
Y seguirte a ti es lo que quiero

 

Tu cuerpo me llama
Tus ojos me sanan
Tu alma me habla
Me dice por dónde seguir
Porque sin ti yo no puedo vivir

 

 

Lyrics in English

 

Spoiler

I float in your direction
Indefinitely I go
Pinned to your heart

 

I go against the flow

Don't know how to come back
Since I met you,
I can't do it without you

 

You body calls me
Your eyes heal me
Your soul speaks to me
Tells me where to follow
And what I want is to follow you

 

Without you
My will flickers
And for me, there's no reality
In which you're absent

 

Maybe you'll never understand
Perhaps words are not needed
It would be better explained close to me... to me

 

You body calls me
Your eyes heal me
Your soul speaks to me
Tells me where to follow
And what I want is to follow you

 

You body calls me
Your eyes heal me
Your soul speaks to me
Tells me where to follow
Because I can't live without you

 

I go against the flow, don't know how to come back

Since I met you, I can't do it without you

 

You body calls me
Your eyes heal me
Your soul speaks to me
Tells me where to follow
And what I want is to follow you

 

You body calls me
Your eyes heal me
Your soul speaks to me
Tells me where to follow
Because I can't live without you

Well @Mehmet is active right now ( @Mehmet you are former user @Memo?), so, Turkey wont be disqualified then?

:MLT MALTA :MLT

 

 

EMMA MUSCAT - SANGRIA (Feat. Astol)

 

 

For this year's TAISC, Malta will be submitting a song in Italian sung by Malta singer Emma Muscat. Emma, who will be also be representing Malta in the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest in Turin, became famous after she participated on the Italian Television show 'Amici'

 

 

 

 

 

Lyrics 

 

Emma Muscat - Sangria (feat. Astol)

 

Quanto manca

Non ci vediamo da un po', il tempo non passa

Ma per raggiungerti ora mi sa che sbaglio via

Tanto so che ogni strada fino all'alba

Mi porta dritta alle tue labbra, quindi tu aspetta

 

So che mi fai male

Sei un chiodo fisso al cuore

Ma ho voglia di passare questa notte insieme a te

Che questo monolocale diventa un lungo mare

Togliamoci le scarpe e poi facciamo ciò che vuoi

 

E adesso balla un po' con me

La musica ci porterà con sé

La tua mano è nella mia

Ma come per magia

Mi baci e poi vai via

Col sole che tramonta in un bicchiere di sangria

 

Io sono il segreto di un bacio a cui pensi

Mentre ti addormenti con lui

e io sono il senso di colpa di un livido che dolcemente sale

Sono galante e quindi te lo chiedo

 

 

Vuoi venire a ballare con un bandolero Io già sento il caldo

Regge poco la scusa dell'alcol

Io non sono un santo e non mi faccio pregare

Se chiami il tuo viso d'angelo io sono le ali

 

E una rosa nel letto, un amante perfetto

Il nome che non scordi più

Astol who

E adesso balla un po' con me

La musica ci porterà con se

La tua mano è nella mia

Ma come per magia

Mi baci e poi vai via

Col sole che tramonta in un bicchiere di sangria

 

Balliamo insieme fino a mattina

Solo con te io riesco a sentirmi più viva

Più scende giù e più la testa mi gira, baby

Guardando il tramonto insieme bevendo sangria

 

E adesso balla un po' con me La musica ci porterà con sé

La tua mano nella mia

Ma come per magia

Mi baci e poi vai via

Col sole che tramonta in un bicchiere di sangria

Col sole che tramonta in un bicchiere di sangria
