Eurovision 2023: It’s Andrew Lambrou For Cyprus! 🇨🇾
Not winning Australia Decides didn’t mean that was the last we’d hear of buff Australian-Greek-Cypriot Andrew Lambrou. Following the aftermath of last year’s Eurovision national final Andrew was approached by Cyprus’ broadcaster CyBc for a potential collab and fast pass to actual Eurovision. The resulting song is Scandi-penned Break A Broken Heart, about pushing through an already broken mess, which is what Andrew has done to be here today representing Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool.
Cain Cooper, DNA’s Eurovision guy, sat down with Andrew at Cypriot restaurant Barzaari in Sydney’s Marrickville, to break apart a broken… baklava!
The Eurovision Song Contest 2023 airs live on SBS and SBS On Demand. Two semi-finals take place on Tuesday 9th and Thursday 11th May (CET), with both Voyager and Andrew Lambrou competing in the second semi-final. The Grand Final takes place Saturday 13th May (CET).
Australian viewers can vote for any country, except our own, which means we can throw our support behind Cyprus! But we’ll need to tune into the LIVE broadcast of Semi-Final 2 on Friday 12th May at 5am (AEST) and the Grand Final on Sunday 14 May at 5am (AEST) and following the prompts for voting on the screen.
Countries not taking part in the competition will be able to vote online for their favourite songs–that means you America! Your votes will be added together and converted to points that will have the same weight as one participating country.
