Slovenia: Listen to the English Version of “Carpe Diem”!

Today, Joker Out, the Slovenian representatives for Eurovision 2023, released the English version of their song “Carpe Diem“.

Joker Out mentioned that:

The response from the media and fans to the original in Slovenian are overwhelming. People like it, we were surprised how many of them even sang it with us at the concert, but they were asking us a lot what the lyrics are all about. We expected this to happen, so we rewrote and recorded it in English at the same session in Hamburg as the original. It’s not a direct translation, but the message and vibe are the same.

Also, referring to the message of “Carpe Diem“:

Carpe Diem is a call to all who know that life is more than what meets the eye. This shagadelic indie dance anthem is a reflection of the band members’ year-round gigging and joy of life. The message is simple: whatever life throws at you – music and dance are always the right answer. The video takes place in a mystical hotel, where the seemingly ordinary and boring world merges with the crazy and magical. You never know what awaits you in the next room or corridor. The only question is: do you dare to surrender to magic or not?

Joker Out preferred performing in their native language instead of English, with the intention to keep their originality and their true character while representing their home nation to Eurovision 2023.
