Adrenalina is the Sammarinese entry for Rotterdam 2021. This time it was Senhit's official Youtube channel who accidentally leaked the entry and the karaoke version for a few moments, a day before the presentation. It was later confirmed by the Eurovision.tv. (here)
The rap bit is by Flo Rida who also has songwriting credits (for the rap probably). After weeks of speculation he showed up and joined Senhit on the stage.
Question: How many people do you need to write a Eurovision entry?
The answer is 10: Chanel
Tukia, Tramar Dillard (= Flo Rida), Jimmy Thörnfeldt, Joy Deb, Kenny
Silverdique, Linnea Deb, Malou Linn, Eloise Ruotsalainen, Senhit Zadik Zadik, Suzi
Pancenkov and Thomas Stengaard. I assume this is a record, even in the modern songwriting conglomerate days.
Update. No it's not, Baila El Chiki-Chiki (Spain 2008) by Rodolfo Chikilicuatre needed 11.
There are two versions you can check out This is the first one and here's the second one
Both versions have Flo Rida but the Eurovision version doesn't mention him in the heading. (see versions).
In the single the Flo Rida part is moved to earlier in the song and it has a slow break not on the Eurovision version. There's also a difference in the intro and other faux-ethno bits.

Not sure what the situation is with other providers, but on Apple Music the version released on March 8th (with the pink cartoon cover) is the one with Flo Rida even though he is not credited. Do we know if a No Rida version exists at all?
ReplyDeleteI guess we'll have to wait until the 12th to get more info. Maybe's there's even more Flo Rida on that version.
DeleteBoth versions feat. Flo Rida, actually:
ReplyDelete- Pink cartoo cover (2:51) = prominent Turkish-like sounds; Flo Rida part runs from 1:40 to 2:10
- Photo cover (2:59) = Turkish sounds replaced by more generic synths; Flo Rida part starts at 0:50 and ends at 1:23. The musical structure of both versions is different too.
