On March 2, Cyprus’s Andrew Lambrou will release his Eurovision 2023 song “Break A Broken Heart” through Panik Records and City Pop Records. You can pre-save it by clicking here.

But ahead of that, you can already listen to a snippet of what sounds like a thoroughly impactful and contemporary entry.

We’re thrilled to share this exclusive clip, courtesy of the Cypriot broadcaster CyBC:

@wiwibloggs_official 💔 @andrewlambrou’s #Eurovision2023 song “Break A Broken Heart” is out March 2 from @Panik Records and City Pop Records. Pre-save now! #fyp #eurovision #cyprus #eurovisionsongcontest ♬ original sound – wiwibloggs

The clip shows Andrew’s journey from childhood to adulthood, moving from black and white to colour as he launches into his Eurovision journey.

The lyrics speak of perseverance and hint at strength developed through struggle. You can’t break a heart if it’s already broken!

You lift me up but leave me in the gutter.

Tear me up and move on to another.

I’m torn apart, but I am a survivor.

You can’t, you can’t break a broken heart.

No-o-o

You can’t break a broken heart

No-o-o

What do you think of the snippet? Are you loving his voice on the track? Let us know down below!

As an Australian, I’m (not so) secretly excited that in possibly our last year (let’s face it, EBU will renew the contract, but we’ll see officially after the contest I suppose), we have two and possibly three Australians representing countries. Lots of pride for me in that for a contest i love, but also I can’t help but think finally more televotes lol.

Inauthentic and generic like all Melofistivalen rejects. And in English even though Greek is beautiful Cyprus is turning into Azerbaijan.
Plus this guy is a bottom – God (and most ESC fans) dont like bottoms

I’m glad that this will be the very first time in ESC history that both Greece (my country) and Cyprus are going to NQ in the semi-finals due to lack of motive, creativity and by using the same recipe of corruptive tactics (ERT) or melo-rejects (PIK), respectfully.

or both simply qualify because they are favourably in the same semi-final and likely to vote for each other. They both already have the advantage, irrespective of song quality.

Yeap because ONE 12 point exchange determines the result!
How pathetic that you all moan about Greece and Cyprus when all Scandinavians, Balcans etc exchange points and indeed determine the results!

It’s a shallow and sad definition of what “good looks” are, with dangerous ramifications for society, gym-goers included. They can do what they like, but there’s no need to boast about it on social media as if it’s some sort of success to be proud of. It’s not even sexy. If you had good muscles from out working in the fields, farming, or doing something else productive… then it would be sexy.

That’s a WILD take!

Being fit is sexy, and there’s nothing wrong with showing your aesthetics online after putting in hard work. Whilst some don’t find fit, athletic or muscular guys sexy, the majority of people do. There’s research to prove that, see Dr. Brain Grants study if you’re interested.

It can be sexy, but what’s unsexy is the hours and hours of their lives they spend to get it. It signifies what their priorities are. Like I said, it’s good to go to the gym for health reasons, both mental and physical. Too many people overdo it, though. The trick is to know when to stop.

Being sexy is objective and mostly dictated by society anyway. Years ago being fat and pale was sexy. Fit people may look good but you gotta admit it’s kind of a turn off when people go to the gym just to show off on social media or elsewhere.

Very basic! Day by day I feel that an Israeli victory is absolute! At the moment there is no competition for Noa Kirel, Sweden as usual will bring a generic club song… Israel brings a special song this time, this year is becoming easier for her as more and more songs are revealed. Quite amazing… I have to say..

I don’t understand the hype over Alessandra. Her entry is dated, kitschy and generic.. maybe it would succeed in 2000 but not in 2023, music and world music moved forward since!! Still she probably advances to the final, as the level of this Year’s songs is very poor.. but in stronger year she wouldnt have a chance…

The 2000 vibe is very in right now though. People are nostalgic and still love those type of songs and they work great on a big stage. She will do well, because it’s just a fun tune.

I was really expecting something a bit more similar to Running (underrated btw) and I’m not sure there’s a lot you can do with this (based on the snippet).

This wasn’t an entry I had super high hopes for but, after this snippet, even my minimal hopes just got a little lower.

I mark down songs immediately that have shortened titles that mean the opposite of what the song is about. Shouldn’t the song be titled YOU CAN’T BREAK A BROKEN HEART instead of BREAK A BROKEN HEART?!?! This is one of my pet peeves.

Greek is one of the most melodic languages, Greece has an amazing music industry yet they have been sending mediocre songs ever since Helena, with few exceptions. I think they need to reinvent themselves like France and Spain did by organizing national selections or changing the delegation. This is not working

The thing is that fans already have negative bias towards this guy, so everything that is not groundbreaking would be called NQ or generic. I personally find this teaser to be very promising.

Exactly what I thought. Fans make it a problem when Cyprus sends female uptempo bops but were also unhappy when both Sandro and Andrew were selected with (what seems to be) somewhat “slower” songs…

No wonder people always say there’s too many ballads when everything even remotely mid-tempo is ”a ballad”. I’d never call this a ballad. A mid-tempo mainstream pop.
