ManuElla (Slovenia): 'Blue And Red'

Written by: M.Brechko, M.Hvala, L.Oblak

Slovenia’s 2016 Eurovision Song Contest entry is ‘Blue and Red’ by ManuElla, who has been playing musical instruments since the age of six but enjoys singing the most.

Singing has the absolute priority in my life! I cannot imagine anything different
ManuElla

Sadly two years ago ManuElla lost her father - her greatest supporter and fan - since then she has dedicated herself to composing songs "which keep her uplifted and fill her with the will to live". ManuElla says “everyone must follow their dreams in this short life and follow one's calling”.

Lyrics - 'Blue and Red'

Allay

Blue and red
Like I'm watching you and me
Every little thing you've said
Led me to fall in love with you

Then you tried to fix me and I wasn't strong
But you are not a composer, I am not your song
Strange chords, different worlds

How can I mix red and blue together
Beautiful days and stormy weather

Allay

'Cause blue is blue and red is red
Our past is spinning in my head
But now the colour doesn't matter
You feel blue and I am better

Now I'm changed
Now I'm stronger than before
Ain't never touching me no more
I'm okay, I'll find my way

How can I mix red and blue together
Beautiful days and stormy weather

Allay

'Cause blue is blue and red is red
Our past is spinning in my head
But now the colour doesn't matter
You feel blue and I am better

Blue is blue and red is red
Now the colour doesn't matter
