“Liverpool, we are ready”

Both Jimmy Jansson and Thomas Stengaard have extensive songwriting credentials in numerous Eurovision National Finals.
Jimmy Jansson has written 34 entries for numerous national finals, 27 of which were for Melodifestivalen, with “YES” by Ben & Tan for Dansk Melodi Grand Prix one of the entries that won its national selection.

Cyprus’ Eurovision journey
The Mediterranean nation made its debut in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1981, where Island participated with the song “Monika” and place 6th. Since then, Cyprus has participated 38 times (31 of which where they were in the Grand Final).
In 2022, CyBC internally selected Andromache to represent them in Turin with the song “Ela”. During their participation in Turin, Andromache failed to qualify for the Grand Final, and managed to place 12th in the Semi-Final, receiving 63 points from the Jury and Televoters.
