YES, finally some more metal & rock representation - the alternative community is enthralled and approves wholeheartedly!🖤🔥🩷 MEGARA would have deserved it last year already, but now it's their time to shine, and with this infectious energy and blazing stage presence they will outshine a lot of other artists under the banner of San Marino! 🇸🇲✨️ Usually not a country that is in my TOP 10, but now they are among my winners. This performance is setting the stage on fire, but it's also theatrical and artistic, and the aesthetics are a colourfully dark dream! Let's go, MEGARA !!!🖤🔥🩷
The Megara revenge tour is officially on. Not just for not winning Benidorm last year (tbf, Blanca got absolutely robbed in Liverpool), but they sent this exact song to compete in Benidorm this year & it got rejected & that's how they ended up in San Marino. The final line in the song basically says "if you don't love me, someone else will" & oh, what a tasty coincidence that is, given that context. (Also, extremely funny that an act that competed in UVPSM last year won Benidorm this year & an act that competed in Benidorm last year won UVPSM this year) Also, cool little detail: one of the dancers is the singer's girlfriend & I'm so fucking jealous. It must be cool af to be able to do that. Anyway, I LOVE Megara. I was sad they didn't win Benidorm last year, I was pissed they got rejected this year, but WE ON, BABY!! Go get San Marino's best result ever, guys!!
Black and pink are the usual colors used by this Spanish rock band that participated last year in the Benidorm Fest with the song Arcadia with which they reached fourth position ❤💛💛❤
Last year Megara was contender in Benidorm fest. They got 4° place. Nebulossa was contender una voice per San Marino. This year they both have won the contest 11:11 🦊🦊🦊 MegaZorra!!!
@@javierxhr Da igual si queda mejor que España. Si queda mejor Zorra le estarán dando en la boca a una voz x San Marino? El año pasado participó Nebulossa en San Marino y no los cogieron. No se está dando ningún zasca pq aunque los hubieran seleccionado para Benidorm fest 2024 no habrían ganado.
@@robercas1 Zasca para todos los que pensaron que Blanca Paloma era realmente una buena opcion para Eurovision, cuando teniamos a Megara que era el pack completo incluso con una mejor canción que esta
@@javierxhr Qué sí. También era mi favorita el año pasado. Pero eso no quita para quitarle valor a Blanca Paloma. Nadie esperaba 5 ptos. Estuvimos 5° en apuestas toda la temporada. Los tops nos dejaban mínimo en el Top10 y mira 17. Es muy fácil hablar a posteriori. Pero también tenemos que valorar que fue el Benidorm fest el que los dio a conocer y mira lo lejos que están llegando...
The song is a tribute to the Eurofan for all the love received last year during the Benidorm Fest and that is why they say that "If you don't love me, other people will love me", that is, the group received some negative opinions from the purest of their musical genre for participating in this type of programs and if they criticize us, then here we have the Eurofan who gives us love...
The song is a criticism of the Spanish rock/metal industry that does not accept them (people obviously DO) and on the contrary the affection received by Eurofam with phrases like: “M-E-L-A-P-E-L-A Que si tú no me quieres Otra gentе me querrá” “I don't care What if you don't love me Other people will love me” “Quierеs ser lobo feroz Quieres ser patético, mal menor Piensas que puedes abatirme Rendimos Benidorm Pintas que es ilógico Incluso mágico Y solo es rock and roll” “ou want to be a big bad wolf You want to be pathetic, lesser evil You think you can bring me down We surrendered Benidorm You think it's illogical even magical And it's just rock and roll” “Vas a poder saltar toda la noche Ven y dame una razón Para querer cambiar esas voces Sabes que unas mienten y otras no” [Chorus] You'll be able to jump all night Come and give me a reason To want to change those voices You know that some lie and others don't The video clip of the song simulates an interview / selection process with two managers of the industry... and the conclusion is that they are not going to change and that their Rock will continue to be music to enjoy, to jump and have a good time @@esc.norway
Ellos cuidan todos los detalles. En San Marino había solamente dos o tres tomas. Con la realización sueca, va a mejorar mucho. Ya lo hicieron en Benidorm el año pasado. En las preparties de Madrid y Barcelona lo vamos a pasar muy bien. Espero que Televisión Española les ayude también aquí, para tener mejor realización y lo pidan luego a la televisión sueca.
They are Spanish, this song wasn't selected fot Benidorm Fest, so they went to San Marino. By the way, they took part of Benidorm Fest in 2023 with Arcadia. They are great. You can also watch the fun music video on TH-cam. We'll se what happens.
Dos artistas españoles juntos en Eurovisión, por tercera vez en la historia y con caminos cruzados. Nebulossa lo intentó en 2023 en San Marino y no pudo ser, y este año gana el Benidorm Fest. Megara se metió en la final española del año pasado y ganó Blanca Paloma. No fueron elegidos este año entre los 16 mejores, pero lucharon en San Marino, contra todo tipo de problemas, incluso de voz, pasaron por carambola en semifinales y lo han conseguido, cantando en español, y frente a italianos de mucho nivel, como Loredana Berte, que venía del San Remo.
This reminds me quite a lot of Ireland's entry this year, though I think Megara pulls it off much better (ignoring the poor quality from that audio mix). Haven't heard this pop-rock sound for a while, it was very common back in the noughties and early tens especially in teen movies (St Trinians, Wild Child, Snogging, etc), so I think it's going to strike some nostalgia in some people even if they don't immediately realise where that familiarity is from. Very quirky too, and at the same time intriguing lol. I think it would be appreciated even more when a better quality version is available though, because it's hard to hear everything as the mic wasn't picking it all up and I don't want to hold that against the band. This is also very TikTok friendly though.
The song says: "if you don't love me, other people will love me" and at some point it talks specifically about Benidorm. It talks about how they weren't accepted at the Benidorm Festival and they show up to another festival "so they can jump all night." It is impossible for her to appear alone without her group because they are a group that has been together for years and are like a family. The singer would never go on stage without her family.
Not at all, as the song was written before and for BenFest 2024. Take a look at their interview at ESC Spain. They are in love with BenFest and their fans.
Love it. Seems a bit unfair to me as I've been listening their music since last year and 11:11 is probably the weakest song they have. Even then, they made their way up to my top 3 this year. They're not only making it to the finals, but they're probably giving a big surprise in the results.
For the third year in a row San Marino is one of my least favorite songs. I would say this is better than last two years but thats only becayse those songs were really bad. This is just kinda meh for me. Also weird seeing San Marino sending a song in Spanish
@@TheRokoShow Yeah Romania also had their song mostly in Spanish in 2012 with Zaleilah and in 2006 with Torneró. It seems like Romanians love putting Spanish in their songs
Apparently, all the Spanish singers who do not manage to go to Eurovision representing Spain, try in San Marino. Last year, Nebulosa, the group that is going to represent Spain this year with the song ZORRA, tried it in San Marino with the song ANOCHE.
Dunno what the band's connection to the name is, but Megara is a name in Greek mythology, she was Heracles's wife (she's Meg in the Disney movie). In the original stories she becomes Herc's wife after he saves her father, but then the goddess Hera makes Herc go crazy and he murders his and Megara's children and has to do the 12 labours to atone for this. In some versions of the story he also murders Megara while crazy and in others they decide they have to split up (or Hera'll just keep doing her thing) and she marries Herc's nephew instead.
Loredana didn't win.. it's a pity. "I want to win, I want to go to Eurovision, it's held in Sweden and I want to annoy my ex-husband." L. Bertè 😄 Ex husband : Björn Borg Luv she - Queen behavior

That is a nice message! What is not to love about this!? Gets better every time I see it

“M-E-L-A-P-E-L-A
Que si tú no me quieres
Otra gentе me querrá”
“I don't care
What if you don't love me
Other people will love me”
“Quierеs ser lobo feroz
Quieres ser patético, mal menor
Piensas que puedes abatirme
Rendimos Benidorm
Pintas que es ilógico
Incluso mágico
Y solo es rock and roll”
“ou want to be a big bad wolf
You want to be pathetic, lesser evil
You think you can bring me down
We surrendered Benidorm
You think it's illogical
even magical
And it's just rock and roll”
“Vas a poder saltar toda la noche
Ven y dame una razón
Para querer cambiar esas voces
Sabes que unas mienten y otras no”
[Chorus]
You'll be able to jump all night
Come and give me a reason
To want to change those voices
You know that some lie and others don't
The video clip of the song simulates an interview / selection process with two managers of the industry... and the conclusion is that they are not going to change and that their Rock will continue to be music to enjoy, to jump and have a good time

@@esc.norway I'll watch it if you decide to react to it.
the pink black and white is their band's branding
Well, it works!
Megara the best very original
Spain made a crime rejecting Megara this year at BF.. but very happy for them❤
What, did they reject them from participating this year?
I'´m glad you like it! I made a video with the English translation so you can understand it! ;) great video btw keep it up
Nice, thanks for sharing, appreciate it! And good job as well, gonna check it out!
Megara was ill when singing the song in San Marino's national semi-final, but I think she did it well.
Greetings from Spain, up the zorras 😂😂
Megara , spanish group
It will qualify.....then, who knows?
She is a powerhouse performer.
We agree. A wildcard just entered the stock

España no es solo flamenco, hay rock y muy bueno, también.

Just so you know, Megara is a band. They're not going to get rid of the other three lol 😅

Noted!

Aha. so there is a clear link there.. Interesting!
But is it just me who thought of 'What You Waiting For' by Gwen Stefani? TIC TOC TIC TOC
No, I did too! And I love that song
