SPAIN – Varry Brava’s Benidorm Fest entry “Raffaella” Their music was an anthem to emancipation and acceptance of all people regardless of sexuality.
Their rival song refers to Raffaella Carrà, their spiritual muse for a song bathed in enthusiasm. They wanted to develop a powerful, energetic and emotional Eurovision song, they tell RTVE. But the process didn’t start with Raffaella in mind.
A dedication to their favourite authors and interpreters, Manuel Alejandro, Julio Iglesias, and Raphael. They were carried away by Raffaella’s energy and influence as the song progressed. After all Raffaella was widely known both in Italy and Spain.
In “Raffaella,” the singer’s sweetheart has forgotten about him. The title refers to the late artist, whose songs are playing loudly while he departs the bar.
“What you really appreciate and find hilarious about love is to begin,” the band sings. They use them all to convey his sadness about her mocking him. Now that Raffaella is on the speakers, he feels like a celebrity and is ready to dance. That spark of love, laughter, and brightness.

Realmente soy un tonto
Un estúpido en el fondo
Que otra noche vuelve a ver cómo te vas
(Pa-pa-para-pa-pada-pa)
Yo te amaba ciegamente
Me olvidaste de repente
Porque a ti lo que te gusta
Y te divierte en el amor
Es empezar
Y hasta el final
Yo te hice caso
Fui un perro con un lazo
Pero hoy todo cambiará
Y seré una estrella
Y cierra el antro y subo al coche
Prendo radio y en la noche
Suena a tope una de Raffaella
Vuela, sobre la disco
Vuela, dame un mordisco
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Me dice
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Qué dices
Vuela, y en un momento
Vuela, le grita al viento
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Te quiero
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
Vuela, sobre la disco
Vuela, dame un mordisco
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Me dice
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Qué dices
Vuela, y en un momento
Vuela, le grita al viento
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Te quiero
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Okey, okey
Es complicado
Entender lo que ha pasado
Me hizo sombra en la alfombra
Su recuerdo grande y claro
Se peinó un poco el flequillo
Y me deslumbró su brillo
Me he quedo anonadado
Al verla bajar del auto
Vuela, sobre la disco
Vuela, dame un mordisco
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Me dice
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Qué dices
Vuela, y en un momento
Vuela, le grita al viento
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Te quiero
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
Vuela, sobre la disco
Dame un mordisco
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Me dice
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Qué dices
Vuela, y en un momento
Vuela, le grita al viento
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Te quiero
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
Le grita al viento
Vuela (Oh-oh)
Suena a tope una de Raffaella

Really, I am silly
Deep down, a stupid man
Who sees how you leave another night
(Pa-pa-para-pa-pada-pa)
I loved you blindly
You forgot me suddenly
Because what you like
And what you find funny about love
Is the beginning
And until the end
I believed in you
I was a dog with a bow
But everything will change today
And I’ll be a star
And the joint closes and I jump on the car
I turn the radio on and in the night
One of Raffaella’s songs sounds loud
Fly, over the disco
Fly, bite me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
She tells me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
“What are you saying?”
Fly, and in just one moment
Fly, she screams to the wind
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
I love you
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
Fly, over the disco
Fly, bite me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
She tells me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
“What are you saying?”
Fly, and in just one moment
She screams to the wind
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
I love you
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Okay, okay
It’s complicated
To understand what happened
Her great and clear memory
Overshadowed me in the carpet
She brushed her fringe a little bit
And her spark dazzled me
I was left speechless
When I saw her leaving the car
Fly, over the disco
Fly, bite me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
She tells me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
“What are you saying?”
Fly, and in just one moment
Fly, she screams to the wind
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
I love you
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
Fly, over the disco
Fly, bite me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
She tells me
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
“What are you saying?”
Fly, and in just one moment
She screams to the wind
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
I love you
(Pa-pa-pa-pada)
Torero
She screams to the wind
Fly (Oh-oh)
