It’s time to meet Andrea, a Macedonian singer-songwriter who will represent North Macedonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy with the song “Circles”.
Born as Andrea Koevska in Skopje, the young artist was noticed by producer Aleksandar Masevski thanks to videos of herself singing covers on social media.
Major influences include Lauryn Hill and Pararmore’s Hayley Williams. In an interview, she said “I listened to gospel and R&B when I was very young. So, what I think happened was I tried to do everything they did, and somehow managed to learn something. I listened to pop, I listened to pop punk, so I absorbed a lot of things”.
Eurovision’s entry “Circles” was co-written by Andrea and Masevski. It tells the story of a relationship on the edge of collapse.
Lyrics:
I just want a healthy conversation
Get it right and fix this situation
Everything is crumbling down beneath us
We run around, run around in circles
Tell me, is this our last temptation?
Can we even fix this situation?
Do I listen to my heart or mind, ’cause
We run around, run around in circles
Circles, circles
Oh, circles
You don’t wanna test my limits
But something tells me you’re not listenin’
Probably, you’re going crazy
It’s all you’ve been doing lately
You don’t wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you’re not listenin’
Can you stop calling me baby
I’ve made up my mind already
We’re running in circles
I just want a hеalthy conversation
Get it right and fix this situation
Everything is crumbling down bеneath us
We run around, run around in circles
We run around in circles
Ooh, yeah
You don’t wanna test my limits
But something tells me you’re not listenin’
Probably, you’re going crazy
It’s all you’ve been doing lately
You don’t wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you’re not listenin’
Can you stop calling me baby
I’ve made up my mind already, yeah-eah
We’re running
Oh…
I’ve made up my mind
I’ve made up my mind
(Stop) Stop calling me baby
(Probably, you’re going crazy)
Crazy
You don’t wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you’re not listenin’
Can you stop calling me baby
I’ve made up my mind already
We’re running in circles
