Romanian chart-topper ROXEN will perform 'Amnesia' at the Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam.
ROXEN revealed to Eurovision.tv that her entry for the world's biggest song competition is deeply personal:
"The last year was a bit of a rollercoaster, filled with really good moments and some low points also. In the end, what kept me going the most was that I had some really great projects. Amnesia somehow manages to give a voice to all repressed feelings and to the people whose voices haven't been heard, in a way that for me is incredibly pure. I would like to thank everyone who has been by my side all this time and has offered me all the support that I needed. ROXEN is made up of pieces from each and everyone of you."
The Cluj-Napoca chanteuse worked with songwriters and producers Adelina Stinga and Victor Bourosu on the track that she will perform in the second half of the first Semi-Final on 18 May in Rotterdam.
About ROXEN
Back in 2020, ROXEN became Romania’s Eurovision representative via a songwriting camp that public broadcaster TVR organised in collaboration with the music label Global Records.
Her popularity grew and in advance of the cancelled Contest she was the 3rd most-played artist on Romanian radio with a duo of tracks in airplay charts: You Don’t Love Me (with 8 million views on YouTube) and Ce-ti Canta Dragostea (a further 9 million views and the most ‘Shazamed’ Romanian song).
