What we think of “Comme Ci, Comme Ça”
The team at That Eurovision Site has reacted to France’s entry for Madrid. Tim gave his thoughts on “Comme Ci, Comme Ça” which you can check out below.
Who is Titouan?
Titouan is one of the oldest Junior Eurovision participants this year, at fourteen–he’s also one of the most experienced, having appeared on The Voice Kids and Dream Team and boasting a social media following of over 100,000. He comes from Quimper in Brittany, France, and grew up around music. His father is a guitarist, and he was influenced by listening to Janis Joplin, Michael Jackson, and the Police at home with his two older brothers. Aside from singing, Titouan also enjoys playing the drums, cooking, manga, and spending time with his family.
France’s Junior Eurovision Journey
France took part in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2004. Represented by Thomas Pontier singing “Si on voulait bien”, France finished in 6th place earning 78 points. However, the country withdrew from the Contest, citing a ‘Eurovision overkill’. France would not rejoin the Contest until 2018. Since then, France has become a Junior Eurovision powerhouse, finishing in the top 5 in each of their four subsequent participations. France won the 2020 edition of the Contest, with Valentina singing “J’imagine”. In 2022, France won for a second time with Lissandro’s song “Oh Maman”.
France participated in the 2023 Junior Euroision Song Contest with Zoe Clauzure and the song “Cœur”. They won the contest for a second time in a row, achieving a total of 228 points. Zoe came first in the jury vote with 136 points, as well as first place in the online vote with 92 points. This 3rd win makes France the joint most successful Junior Eurovision country alongside Georgia.
