Today the Cypriot entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 was revealed, and it turns out that it is Andromachi who will fly the Cypriot flag in Turin (Italy) this year, with the song “Ela”. The search for the Cypriot contestant was done internally.
“Ela” is the title of the Cypriot song. This song has very characteristic sounds of Hellenistic culture, where the bouzouki is the most striking element, as it is a guitar of special relevance in modern Greek music.
The song “Ela” is written and composed by Alex P, Arash, Eyelar Mirzazadeh, Fatjon Miftaraj, Filloreta Raci Fifi, Geraldo Sandell, Giorgos Papadopoulos, Robert Uhlmann, Viktor Svensson and Yll Limani. You can listen to it at the following link on the Panik Records website.
