05:41But the whole crew the whole team and everybody on the stage, it's it's insane
05:46Describe that tension waiting for your name of your country to be to be played out
05:51So there was a lot of tension
05:53Waiting for the name of my country and it was so insane
05:56But I was like wait, maybe not the first time but the second time they're gonna say my name
06:01But I sat there and they called our name as the first time we were on the screen. It's amazing
06:06How tricky is it to do that performance where the camera is on you the entire time one camera one take?
06:13Your face right there
06:15it's so lovely to do the the camera thing just the whole dance with my the camera and it's
06:21It's like a one-shot
06:22but it also brings a lot of tension in it because we are in a dance when I go this way he goes that way and
06:29Every time when I just walk to the cameraman
06:31I gave him a box and I'm like we got this because we're also doing it together
06:36Dancing with your cameraman. I love it dancing with my camera, man

07:29How did it feel performing it and hearing everyone chant it back to me? It was amazing. I
07:36Saw it growing, you know
07:39from the very first pre parties until you know the parade in Basel and
07:45Tonight the the audience was crazy and I I was you know through my in-ears. I heard them singing

16:23Yolanda you were there for Portugal and Jerry Hale for Ukraine Jerry. How's it feel being back on the stage?
16:29I cried the moment I took a step on the stage
16:34Because a woman took my hand the woman that held my hand when I was running from the hill
16:41when I don't ask part started I had to run all over the stage and come back again to the stage and
16:48She's holding my hand and I look into her eyes and I realized that's the same woman and I start crying
16:54It's it's the same woman as last year
16:56Yes, and she's like why are you crying and I just can't stop and in general like the whole
17:02The situation of us meeting each other together again, it's like a meeting of the graduates
17:09From school and the three of you together. Was it nice to see each other for the first time Marina?
17:14What was it like a hundred percent and also Sylvester?
17:17we've been
17:19We've been in touch with most of the people from last year
17:23Also with Yolanda, we're talking a lot
17:26I've been wearing your merch as I said last year
17:29They gave us many gifts and also the delegation from the Ukraine. They gave us some amazing socks that I've been wearing
17:37two pairs
17:39Those are the best talks. I have wait. So so so the Ukrainians gave you guys sock
17:43Yeah, I mean I have gifts from many many delegations from last year. Do you have this cute doll from Armenia?
17:50I have that that's that the doll looks like

18:09Yo-yo, I suck at this though
18:12She tried to teach me last year still I can't do it
18:16Yeah, Yolanda. Can you believe it's been a year? It must be so nice to see your friends again. It's kind of
18:22Different what different what am I saying? Sometimes I lose my mind like in this in this world
18:28It's been like very wild because like I've done I don't know
18:32I think I've done the most concerts in a year that I've done so far. So that for me was a first
18:38And because like the year prior to your vision, I was releasing my first single
18:44So it was quite wild to like jump like that
18:48So, yeah, I'm super I'm super happy that it's been a year
18:51But it's been very fast like it like it just flew the time and now we are here
18:56I still feel like we are still like in last year
18:59I don't know if you girls feel the same but for me, it's just like like no time has passed
19:05All time has passed and no time has passed if you know what I mean, I don't know
19:09Yeah
19:09I'm just really thankful for your vision people to invite me to be like a part of the community or a family
19:16it feels like that because I
19:18Really made it to some like Eurovision related concerts and Eurovision parties
19:24It feels like I'm in a right place every time I perform for them
19:30So yeah, it's just like it's been a wonderful year
19:33Let's talk about the big secret that you've been keeping for all this time you go on stage
19:39Marina tell us all about the performance you get to sing this beautiful version of Celine Dion's
19:45Eurovision winning song
19:48Yeah, it's a tribute to Celine Dion it's a song that
19:51she performed in
19:531988 and Switzerland won with that song. It's a very nice way to be back and different
20:00With a beautiful orchestra amazing arrangement with these amazing singers our voices together and our harmonies
20:08It's it's a nice different way to be back
20:12Yeah, yeah, we're all none of us is French speaking and every time we look at each other and we're like is that okay
20:17I'm so stressed
20:22You've been perfecting your French accent for the last couple of weeks well perfecting would be maybe an exaggerating
20:29Exaggeration, but we're working on it. I'm working on it when I saw you for all that together with Sylvester as well
20:34I had this like warm feeling because you just looked like
20:39The world's best new band all on stage looking really beautiful as well
20:44Abba is back. Yeah, so who would be Benny? Oh, that would be Sylvester for sure
20:48But how much do you love Celine Jerry again? I was crying
20:54I don't know. It's very emotional
20:57But she's such a legend and to like touch even like touch her song and to be able
21:05to stay on a stage and
21:09Sing at least like one line of her song it's
21:13For me, it's a very very important moment in my life
21:17This is something that could happen like once in a lifetime, maybe but that's that's what I will like remember for my whole life
21:25Because she formed me when I was like younger and my parents would listen to her
21:31I would listen to her and this moment. This is such a
21:35Like special song because she won with her with it with it like so many years ago. Yeah 37 years ago
21:42It still touches our hearts. This is for the centuries
21:46This is music for centuries and I'm just lucky to be I think from now on we can say we collaborated with her
21:52I think you can
21:54Yeah, you completely and Celine's they're like, who are you?
22:00Marina it looks like you had fun at the Euro Club. You got to do Zadi and also some new music as well, man
22:06You know this community and also I told them last night this community. It's it's very
22:12Touching if you think about it
22:14Even even the Euro fans in Greece are very like connected with each other and very very warm and very I don't know
22:21Like passionate about this and I don't think it's easy in life to have
22:26Something that drives you so much to find it and you know to connect to make friendships
22:32through that and
22:33This always feels like something that is warm. It's alive. And this is a
22:39Really beautiful community really honestly
22:42Yeah, once we're very supportive also for artists you want you into the Eurovision community. It's like being given a big hug
22:48Yes, and and and I see that also, you know
22:52Even if it's it's one year later for us, but also with other friends that I have from Greece who participated many years ago
23:00They're still part of that community. Like it feels like the Euro fans never forget the older
23:07Contestants, you know the older artists. I I really love that and I'm really grateful and I'm really sending them a lot of love and
23:14Thank yous and I was gonna ask you Marina. Do you still have your little handkerchief from your boots last year?
23:21I mean, I
23:24Lost it. I used to lose it every time
23:28So, of course, I lost it now. I don't know. I still don't have it, but I have it in my mind
23:33It's okay. It was the iconic little pull out of the boot, you know, sometimes most of the times it didn't work, but
23:40It works on the final though, right, you know a question for all three of you
23:44Maybe if you want to answer first, when was the last time you watched your grand final performance back?
23:51I've never seen it to be honest, Marina. You've never done it
23:54I never never I I saw the previous ones because it was like a way to get feedback for the final
23:59For the finals and for the next phase, you know, I never I swear to God. I never saw the final
24:05Is it because you just want it as a moment in time?
24:08No, I just I I couldn't it is amazing
24:14Because it's gonna be online forever
24:17So I hope it is. What about you Yolanda? I'm not gonna lie. I watch it often
24:24Do you show it to any friend anybody didn't do it on my own right like in my room or every time I you know
24:30Like I have a free not not like every time I have a like free time
24:34But usually I like to I don't know like to watch it
24:37For example with our team like from last year. We like like to see it just to remember all the moments
24:43Because we came like I had so many friends working with me and that's something that I like take for for life
24:51Because I think that this experience is definitely not once in a lifetime because now we're back
24:57so I can't use it use that but like the
25:00everything we lived like all the all the experiences they made me grow into such a
25:05Like a strong like a strong woman
25:08Like surrounded by strong people and and yeah, I've just learned so much you you've always been strong
25:17From the first day I met you
25:20Nobody I think it's just a beautiful
25:22it was a beautiful experience and and I watch it a lot of times especially to understand like the beauty of
25:28Stepping on that stage because I remember going into the last
25:32Performance and I remember we did that like 14 times I think
25:36Which is crazy to think about
25:38And I remember stepping on the stage for the last time and as soon as I realized that it was gonna be the last time
25:45I looked at all the the dancers and they are they were all like
25:49Around me and like pulling down
25:51So I remember putting the hand on their shoulder and like like squeeze them to say like guys
25:56This is the last time we're gonna be here performing this song like enjoy
25:59The heck out of it because it's gonna be like the last thing I remembered
26:04Like feeling all shivery because I was doing this as such a remote
26:09robotic way because like when you sing the same song for 13 times in a row you
26:14You get lost a bit of the sense and I got it all back. So it was it was crazy
26:19yeah, you're all left-hand side of the board Queens, by the way on the like amazing performances and
26:26We've spoken about this Jerry, but you came third in the end. Like what a moment
26:32Actually, I never I never watched oh you've never watched
26:35but
26:37Eurovision fans wouldn't let me miss it because I
26:41Saw so many edits so many that and also I like if I would be with the closed eyes now
26:49I could like re
26:52like remade this
26:54Staging again and again. It's really like remember. It's muscle memory. You remember, you know exactly where to go
27:00You know how to climb up your mountain
27:03Absolutely. Yeah
27:04Your performance is I really watch it and my girlfriend is called Teresa because your song was actually one of the for example at
27:11My tour last year. She was working with us at certain points. So everybody was like singing mother Teresa
27:17She was our mother at a certain point. So that is cool anxiety speaks for itself
27:21That is just my go to the club
27:24Yeah song and just like I want to get everything out of my head. So I listen to Zoddy
27:28Here's a question for all three of you now that you're kind of a year out
27:31Did you feel like Nemo was always gonna win?
27:35I told them when I saw the performance first and I saw how they're all in it and the melody and everything
27:44We discussed it with them and I said like good luck with your winning
27:49Did they get you any of you to try the prop the spinning disc would any of you ever try it?
27:55Marina like I never tried it last year, but to be honest
27:58When I went to Malva, we had in mind that Nemo was gonna win
28:04but you know when you're there and you're working so much and you're kind of like
28:08Inside and you you kind of like lose the audience anymore. That's that's how I felt the 15 days that we were there
28:15I didn't know what was going on. But I'm glad that happened because I don't know. I really like the song. I like
28:22Nemo's voice. I like the music video when I first saw it
28:25I think the performance and the whole act was very elegant the lights. It looked like a
28:30Like a photo or like a picture like yeah also about this year. I'm really impressed
28:35I feel like the way like things are evolving so fast. Like I'm really impressed by everyone's
28:43Direction like TV direction and the way it's portrayed
28:45I think we were like we were backstage like watching some of the performances and everything even though last year
28:51I really loved it and it was very special because because we were there like this year
28:56I feel like there's like with the drones and yes
28:58That's what I want to say exactly like the the effects and everything like it's in a certain way
29:03Like I feel like it's a little bit more sci-fi as well, which I like last year
29:07I was really impressed by Bambi's direction and like the shots and the edit and everything. I was like, oh my god
29:13This is like a movie. It's not it's not like a and and this year I feels like it feels like the whole thing is
29:20Going there. Like I also saw the performance by Croatia. Was it that we saw today that again?
29:26It felt like a music video and Switzerland. Oh my god, and Jerry house Alena. How is she?
29:32She's actually performing a lot, too. She just gave her big concert in
29:38one of the main venues in KU and she's organizing pretty big one in the biggest venue and
29:47Yeah, she's really developing in Ukraine nowadays and she's singing more
29:52So it's a new path for her career after your vision, I guess you had your moment last year
29:58You've had the little drip back this year. Is it giving you any kind of appetite to maybe one day in the future?
30:05Do it again. I
30:07Mean look to be honest
30:09My life has taught me that you can never predict
30:12I would say that it feels too soon and that I feel I got the information and I gave
30:19Everything I could in this and it still feels like I haven't taken a break since then
30:24I had to finish the album that I released two weeks ago
30:28So it's really hard for me to think of that right now. I love the experience
30:33But now I'm also focusing on my first album. So it is a lot of work and it's a first for me
30:39So I do believe as Marina said like it's it's very early to to think about it again, but obviously it is something
30:49That I dream sometimes, you know, like just because of the experience that it was so good
30:53But for now, I will be focusing on my first album. It's exciting. Yeah, that is gonna come out at the end of the year
31:00and on the dates we have planned and everything and the and the gigs
31:04and just do music because I think
31:06Like I need to do more music than you know, yeah, I just feel like I need to do music for now Jerry
31:13How about you? How about my appetite? I'm always hungry
31:17Hungry for more Eurovision hungry for more Eurovision success
31:22So never say never I think that's the that's the general vibe. Never say never
31:27Maybe one day we'll get a collab between the three of you
31:30You know sing like you know, like our languages or maybe switch languages
31:33I want to hear you sing in Ukrainian Yolanda really
31:40Yeah, so so Jerry in Greek
31:44Marina in Portuguese
31:48But Greek and Ukrainian might be a little bit hard
31:52You did do French remember that and my final question
31:56Your go-to Celine Dion song Marina. It can be the most basic one. I
32:02Love that one, too
32:04Everyone always says my heart will go on but I like the upbeat ones of Celine Dion Yolanda
32:08I would say my heart will go on and then I cry every time you're almost wearing right now
32:15Kind of like Titanic esque necklace
32:20Yeah, but that's what that's my favorite song of Celine's yeah, it always makes me cry and Jerry
32:24I wanted to say my heart will go on then. I'm left with
32:28Which
32:30Is also beautiful song it's a beautiful song. It was a beautiful moment on stage
32:34I want to say thank you for coming back and creating that special moment honoring the OG diva herself miss Celine Dion
32:42What a woman and it has been lovely to see you. Thank you for coming back on the podcast. Thank you so much. Thank you
32:57You
