The big moment has arrived! Since last January 31 and until February 4, the pre-selection of the Spanish candidate for Eurovision 2023 through the second edition of Benidorm Fest. And before it is resolved who will travel to Liverpool, we must know all the candidate songs.
We have already been able to see many performed by her on stage, but in case you have missed them or want to listen to the others before the winner is decided by the public, the demoscopic vote and the popular vote, here we leave them all.
There are proposals of all kinds in terms of genre and artists. We have some artist who already knows what it is to go to Eurovision, like Alfred that, this time, he could go alone. We have colleagues of yours Triumph operation as Agoney. There are also artists who already tried it in the previous Benidorm Fest, such as White Dove. Influencers who are highly followed on social networks such as Twin Melody and even a drag queen Sharonsome Catalan with Siderland and the folklore of Carmen.
1. Agoney. I want to burn
The former contestant on Triumph operation, Your face is familiar to me o amazing duos, has opted for a rather risky electropop that is different from what we usually hear in this type of contest. A vocal waste that allows him to display his wide range. “Arde” is the most repeated word in a topic shared with Black Panda.
2. Alfred Garcia. since you are
Alfred García came out of Triumph operation next to Amaia Romero as a couple chosen to represent us at Eurovision. On that occasion, she was ranked 23rd. Now, she wants to repeat and improve that position, but this time alone. And for this he proposes a pop rock with a certain melancholic air that he has composed himself with Raul Gomez and which, according to him, is the best he has composed so far and “intends to embrace heaven and hell that we all carry inside”.
3. Alice Wonder. I would
The beginning of the song composed by Alice Wonder It is so minimalist that it makes us think that it will end up picking up the pace with which it ends in that alternative setting that the artist masters so well. A theme that refers to “the inner storm that occurs inside someone who gives up trying to understand the world, simply lives in it.
4. E’FMEE. Uff!
If we want female empowerment, here we have E’FEMME, a girlband that follows in the footsteps of Chanel and she arrives ready to make us dance with this urban pop composed by themselves, Toolbar – who was already a Spanish representative of Eurovision in 2016 – and antonio escobar. Sandy, Melania, OTHER y Lottie They are ready to deploy all their might.
5. Famous. La Lola
We had lost track of him a bit, but here we have again Famousthe one who won in 2018 Triumph operation and that now he wants to win Benidorm Fest. If he did, he would take this danceable pop composed of Adrian Ghiardo, Andres Sebastian Ramirez y Jorge de la Cruz Correa.
6. Jose Otero. winters on mars
In Eurovision ballads also have a place and for one of them he bets Jose Otero what do you propose winters on mars, a song that talks about empowering yourself in the face of heartbreak. A song that talks about “an impossible love and the action of giving up before knowing that you have lost someone”. Epic airs for a universal theme.
7. Carmen. I want and mourn
If in the previous edition of the Benidorm Fest we had roots through tanjugueiras and his so Galician proposal, on this occasion, we are going to La Mancha with Carmen and its folklore. I want and duel expresses “the feeling of wanting something and dealing with the pain and difficulty of getting it.” The artist wants to dedicate her song “to all the people who at some point have had to break away from their roots to walk their path in life.”
8. Megara. Arcadia
Lordi y Maneskin They are good proof that rock has its role in Eurovision. Megara comes to cover that genre with a theme made up of Sara Jimenez Moral, Roberto La Lueta Ruiz e Israel Dante Ramos who tag their track as ‘fucksia rock’. With him they try to delve into “a virtual story in which two girls of flesh and blood will unleash their love through a video game.”
9. Meler. They will not move us
With topics like kites o bad for you, meler He has shown us that they know how to get the staff on their feet to catch it and let themselves be carried away by their good vibes pop. “We also felt that it was time to take a risk and we have dared to try a more electronic production”, comments the group.
10. Rakky Ripper. Traction
Continuing with this broad representation of different genres, we find a small dose of hardcore with Rakky Ripper. Her theme talks about “unexpressed feelings” and she has composed it herself together with KICKBOMBOARTWORK.
11. Sharon. Aire
If the title were worth according to what Alejandro Sanz I would bet on Sharonne and her Aire. A dance theme, that genre that Eurovision likes so much. Ivan Torrent, Alejandro Barroso y Christopher Garrido (Sharonne) sign this song that talks about stopping to catch your breath and moving forward.
12. Siderland. Let everything explode
Until now we have not brought any proposals in Catalan to Eurovision. Serrated he wanted to do it in 1968, but they wouldn’t let him. Now she could be the first with this group of three friends from Barcelona who defend Let everything explode“the story of two people who love each other but who react in opposite ways to a collapsing world”.
13. Sofia Martin. Support
After the TOKE of Chanelhe so so of DJ Snake con Ozuna y Selena Gomez or the Tukoh Taka of MalumaNow comes Sofía Martín’s Tuki. This Spanish-German singer-songwriter brings us some electronic music with a pop and urban character that she has co-written with Claudius Maselli y Freddy Rochow.
14. Twin Melody. Sayonara
Nor have we brought two twins to Eurovision. That could change if we bring the singers, but also influencers and tiktokers, Twin Melody. the girls who Paul Motorcycles signed in the anthill they give us a lesson in empowerment and self-love. They invite us to say goodbye to the things that do not fulfill or represent us and, above all, to the people who do not value us. Impossibly more cosmopolitan with phrases in French, English, Spanish and Basque. And attention because Jonathanof melerhas co-written this song with Natalia and the Twin Melody themselves.
15. Vicco. nocturna
It is worth that we are in times of crisis and it seems that the world is more troubled than ever, but we must give space to happiness and the desire to enjoy life and that is what it proposes to us Vico with Nonchentera and its catchy chorus.
16. Shooting Night My family
“The theme has different musical genres to reflect the many facets of the family, from the most beautiful to the darkest part of it,” he explains. Shooting Night about his song that takes us to flamenco trap.
17. Aritz Arén. Flamenco
And with flamenco we continue because that’s the name of the song with which Aritz Arén bets on the most international pop, without losing what it represents us. Behind him we find Carlos Mark, Frida Amundsen, Eat Brown, Sam Gray y Special Tony. A new Aurynapart from Blas Cantocould go to Eurovision, this time, as a composer.
18. White Dove. Hey
White Dove It was already in the first edition of the Benidorm Fest and although it couldn’t be last year, it already left very good feelings. He does not give up on his efforts and this year he returns with this love story that transcends death. “It celebrates the legacy of love and knowledge passed down from generation to generation through the nanny,” she explains.
One of them will be chosen and the one who will take over from Chanel. Of course, the Spanish-Cuban has set the bar very high.
