Armenia in Junior Eurovision 2024: Leo with “Cosmic Friend”

Leo comes from a family of singers, so music is in his blood. He cites a wide range of musical influences, ranging from greats like Michael Jackson and Frank Sinatra to modern superstars like Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars.

Leo says that it’s his dream to follow in the footsteps of Maléna and win Junior Eurovision for Armenia. Luckily for him, the 2021 champion is on his side, working as one of the lyricists of his Junior Eurovision entry “Cosmic Friend”.

Aside from music, Leo enjoys reading and football as some of his other hobbies.

What do the “Cosmic Friend” lyrics mean?

“Cosmic Friend” is an intergalactic tale, with Leo claiming to have a friend from a distant planet who is unaccustomed to the ways of life in our corner of the universe. This unusual friend seems to be scared of the lights and sounds of our planet but Leo wants to form a connection that transcends their differences.

Leo’s cosmic friend is described as being magical, different and interesting. Through the story, Leo wants to journey to this friend’s planet on their spaceship and explore the universe, allowing his imagination to run wild.

All in all, “Cosmic Friend” is a story of friendship, creativity, imagination and fun. It is filled with a wild sense of wonder that can only be seen through the eyes of a child and is a story of connecting with other people despite their differences.

Armenian text

Welcome to my world
I’ll take you to a place where dreams will come alive
Where we can reach the sky!

Mi enger oonem yes shad heroo moloragits
Ov darper a shad, oo nman chi indz
Chi khosoum vochinch, payts hasganoum em achkerits
Vor vakhenoum a shad, louysits oo tsaynerits

Oh but it’s hard to decide
Should I stay or follow your side
You’re the reason I found the magic inside
Tonight!

Hima, hima na
Na im deghe gimana
Oo eli unsbaseli gka
Hena, hena na
Hents kaghake artnana
Na mi vayrgyanoum ganhedana

With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong
With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong

Togh ko hed mdnem hima yes ko trchogh upsen
Oo garavarem, yes ghege nraaa
Oo knank ko molorag, asa indz ko hastsen
Oo asa, vor ga gyank lousni vra

Che, yes voch megin chem asi
Chem asi vochinch en masin
Vor bidi trnenk miasin lousin

Hima, hima na
Na im deghe gimana
Oo eli ansbaseli gka
Hena, hena na
Hents kaghake artnana
Na mi vayrgyanoum ganhedana

Show me your planet
Where imagination knows no limit!
No need to fear it
We can take over the moon and spin it!
Keep it a secret
‘Cause they won’t believe even if they see it
No gravity can hold us down
We’re dancing in the air!

With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong
With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong

English translation

Welcome to my world
I’ll take you to a place where dreams will come alive
Where we can reach the sky!

I have a friend from a very distant planet
Who’s very different and is not like me
He’s not saying anything, but I can see in his eyes
That he’s afraid of lights and sounds

Oh but it’s hard to decide
Should I stay or follow your side
You’re the reason I found the magic inside
Tonight!

Now, now
He will know where I am
And will come visit me again
Look, look
There he is, but as soon as the city wakes up
He will disappear again

With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong
With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong

Let me come with you and see your spaceship
Let us fly together
So we can go to your planet, tell me your address
Tell me, that there’s life on the moon

No, I won’t tell anyone
I won’t tell anyone
That we’re flying to the moon tonight

Now, now
He will know where I am
And will come visit me again
Look, look
There he is, but as soon as the city wakes up
He will disappear again

Show me your planet
Where imagination knows no limit!
No need to fear it
We can take over the moon and spin it!
Keep it a secret
‘Cause they won’t believe even if they see it
No gravity can hold us down
We’re dancing in the air!

With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong
With you I’m not alone
I’m right where I belong

For me this is the best song in the contest. Armenia always send good pop song to Junior Eurovision. Unfortunately I have found in Junior E if the song sounds shall we say “too grown up” it seems to get penalized or marked down. The exception being 2021. Good Luck Leo.
