🇮🇹 Chanel Dilecta releases their Junior Eurovision entry “BLA BLA BLA”

As it was previously announced, today we got “BLA BLA BLA” with which Chanel Dilecta will be representing Italy at the up and coming edition of Junior Eurovision 2022.

Italy opts into a dance song

Last year, Italy has sent a rock sounding song to the contest. This year Chanel Dilecta brings us to the dance floor with “BLA BLA BLA”. The song gives off a vibe of the songs performed by La Rappresentante di Lista. Italy went for the junior sounding song and music video. Despite it being more of a dance song, Chanel performs a few high notest throughout the song.
