Jul 4 2025

Malta’s Eurovision 2025 representative Miriana Conte has officially released her new song ‘Għajjejt (i8)’.

The title is a play on the Maltese word ‘għajjejt’ (I’m tired) and how it’s pronounced, which sounds like ‘I ate’.

Following her representation of Malta in Basel with her song ‘SERVING’, which was changed from ‘KANT’, Miriana is officially back and is building on extreme hype around her.

And the ending? Well, she makes sure to use the word KANT as much as she could due to no longer being censored.
