Spain SPAIN 2022 - Chanel - SloMo

[escYOUnited]

Llegó la mami
La reina, la dura, una Bugatti
El mundo está loco con este party
Si tengo un problema, no es monetary
Yo vuelvo loquito’ a todos los daddies
Yo siempre primera, nunca secondary
Apenas hago doom, doom
Con mi boom, boom
Y le tengo dando zoom, zoom
Por Miami

Y no se confundan
Señora’ y señore’
Yo siempre ‘toy ready
Pa’ romper cadera’, romper corazones
Solo existe una
No hay imitaciones (Na, na)
Y si aún no me crees, pues me toca mostrárselo

Take a video
Watch it slo mo, mo, mo, mo, mo
Booty hypnotic
Make you want more, more, morе, more, more
Voy a bajarlo hasta el suеlo, lo, lo, lo, lo (Yeah)
If you wish, you could do this dembow (Do this dembow)
Drives you loco (Yeah)
Take a video, watch it slo mo

Te gusta todo lo que tengo
Te endulzo la cara en jugo de mango
Se te dispara cuando la prendo
Hasta el final, yo no me detengo
Take a sip of my cola-la
Un poco salvaje na-na-na
Make it go like pa-pa-pa-pa
Like pa-pa-pa-pa-pa

Y no se confundan (Y no se confundan)
Señora’ y señore’
Yo siempre ‘toy ready (Yo siempre estoy ready)
Pa’ romper cadera’, romper corazone’
Solo existe una (Solo existe una)
No hay imitaciones (Na, na, na)
Y si aún no me crees, pues me toca mostrárselo (Oye)

Take a video
Watch it slo mo, mo, mo, mo, mo
Booty hypnotic
Make you want more, more, more, more, more
Voy a bajarlo hasta el suelo, lo, lo, lo, lo
If you wish, you could do this dembow (Do this dembow)
Drives you loco (Yeah)
Take a video
Watch it slo mo, mo, mo, mo, mo
Booty hypnotic

Both are grammatically correct, but they mean slightly different things, I think.

"Secreto de agua" roughly translates to "water secret". A secret made of water, if you want.

"Secreto del agua" would mean "secret from the water".

It's easier to make a difference thinking how it would translate in Portuguese (segredo de água vs segredo da água).
I don't know if this made any sense in English lol

That's right

Weeeeell after several listens I can say I've finished my top for our NF. Quite happy there's a huge variety of music but still worried about what Spain is going to choose, I have no trust in neither RTVE and Spanish jury/televote tastes. Here it comes:

1. Tanxugueiras - Terra (10/10)
1. Blanca Paloma - Secreto de Agua (10/10)
1. Rayden - Calle de la Llorería (10/10)
4. Xeinn - Eco (8.5/10)
5. Unique - Mejores (8/10)
6. Azúcar Moreno - Postureo (7.5/10)
7. Rigoberta Bandini - Ay Mama (7.5/10)
8. Varry Brava - Rafaella (7.5 /10)
9. Chanel - Slo Mo (7/10)
10. Marta Sango - Sigues en mi Mente (7/10)
11. Luna Ki - Voy a Morir (7/10)
12. Javiera Mena - Culpa (5.5/10)
13. Gonzalo Hermida - Quién lo diría (3/10)
14. Sara Deop - Make you say (1/10)

Overall good songs but please I'd love to see my country represented by any of the first three ones, actually I can't rank them cause they're so different and good at their category. Let's see how festival goes in January.

 

[PollyWantsACracker]

I'm so happy that Spain chose to have a festival selection this year because we can already notice that ALL Benidorm 2022 songs are better than Spain's selection for ESC Grand Final 2021.

As a fan of Canelita and typical Andaluz traditional sound, I simply love Postureo song and Spain can't go wrong by sending this. It's fun, various sounds and vocals have been perfectly mixed digitally, it is a unique Spanish sound that will appear different from other entries in the competition, and it can be translated on the ESC stage as a huge performance.

My second best is Calle da la lloleria, Rayden is impressive performing this modern mix.

I'm not much into Terra, it's fine quality, but a bit too "low key". Though I somehow believe this will be the ESC bubble's fav.

 

[PollyWantsACracker]

I'm not impressed by Benidorm Fest songs as majority is. Too many middle of the road songs (which i mostly like even these ones) but with no potential for Eurovision.
The only ones with potential that I like are:

1. Calle de la Lloreria - very risky, but if done right could be a good result for Spain, reminds me of Mahmood in a way. Something really different from what Spain usually sends, but still very ethnic.
2. Postureo - Love Bandido and this is like a modern version, I really like it, very Spanish, it could look good in Eurovision.

Terra - this is apparently a potential, I can see why, but I don't like it, it's very repetitive, annoying/very noisy to my ears. Need to see it live tho.

Others I feel like don't really have any potential for something bigger than bottom5 in Eurovision, even tho I really like Eco too.

I saw your comment after my post praising Postureo and Calle. A proof that Balkan musical taste is a distinct category from the others. Diversi da loro.

 

[Turnip]

Absolutely adore Secreto De Agua, hope Blanca slays this live
Got to say I'm not feeling Terra like everyone else, to me it's just Tulia 0.2

It's true I really like those 2.

 

[ESCREGION]

Finally listened all the songs and i am surprised by the number of songs i like.

However, that's my Top 5

Rayden - Calle de la llorería
Tanxugueiras – Terra
: Javiera Mena - Culpa
Chanel – Slo mo
Sara Deop - Make you say

 

[Jonkonfui]

I like most of the songs but my absolute favourite is Secreto de Agua which I consider too good for Eurovision.

 

[Schlagerman1]

Listened through the spanish songs, a pretty decent line-up as a whole, but for me it is just one song that would make a stong enough impact in ESC to do potential do pretty good and that is Rayden and "Calle De La Lljorería". It reminds me a bit of "Telemoveis", but is probably way easier to apply to the casual viewer. It is strong spanish flavour, feels edgy, a bit fun but also heavily mysterious which is in it's advantage. I think this could be a song that many will think "It is not my kind of song, but it is damn good though!". It might in the end not work in ESC, but at least it would be a test for Spain to take one step outside the box for once and hopefully it gets somewhat of a reward of avoiding bottom 6 again.

For the rest, well, many decent ones but not something that would push them above top 20. Many people talk about "Terra", but for me it is way to repetive and I have a real hard time seeing this work on stage as well. Secreto De Agua I thought were not going anywhere for me. Azucar Morenos song is better than I thought it would be, but I have a hard time seeing them sell this enough 32 years after their last entry. So for me Spain only got one choice and that is Rayden!

Looks very nice!
Let's hope to receive a good TV filming perspective. It is always the worst part of the spanish national finals.

The stage:

Tick tock watch the days go

 

[Martyman]

As an 80s synth-head and electronica devotee, I had a really enjoyable run-through of the Spanish entries. Some really great stuff.
I will be delighted if any of the following progress to Turin ...

• Javiera Mena - Culpa
• Marta Sango - Sigues En Mi Mente #80sBaby
• Varry Brava - Raffaella
• Rigoberta Bandini - Ay Mama
• Xeinn - Eco

@EsvGeek

How comes you do not like Tanxugueiras - "Terra"?! It is simply marvelous!

My father will seriously get mad of me, ahaha Im singing Tanxugueiras – “Terra” all the time.. Ahaha he asked me “What the hell is that??” lmao.. I really love this song, it is so different to me, than anything else till now, it is so daring for ESC imo..
And I simply luv those lyrics..

You have to put things in perspective... i'd take "Terra" over "Secreto de agua" anyday.

I know i'm a bit picky with entries like these. It's extremely hard to reach Trio Mandili or Neiokõsõ's level of fun.

Is Spain the most 'meh' ESC top 5 country these days? I mean, at least UK brings the drama with how shit it is, and Germany are good to despair at, and they've at least had a recent-ish(ISH) win and a top 5 a few years ago. I always find Spain's entries completely safe and bland, and they're not even fun to laugh at...
