Theodor Andrei represented Romania at Eurovision 2023 with the song “D.G.T. (Off and On)” however he did not make it to the Grand Final.
During an interview with Romanian artist The Watcher, for the YouTube series Fără Perdea, Theodor said that as a big fan of the contest, he was excited to perform on the Liverpool stage. However, he spoke about how his dream slowly but surely turned into a nightmare due to his partnership with Romanian national broadcaster TVR.
Theodor explained how he had been thinking about taking part in Eurovision for several years, trying to find the right song. He confessed that hearing thousands of voices singing the Romanian lyrics of “D.G.T. (Off and On)” during the Eurovision pre-parties in Amsterdam and London remains one of his favourite achievements of his career so far. But he then claimed that TVR, which is responsible for the Romanian delegation at Eurovision, turned his dream into a nightmare.
Theodor Andrei speaks out against TVR.
In Selecția Națională, the selection show for Eurovision in Romania, Theodor participated by presenting an original set he designed himself. He had the intention to modify and improve it for Eurovision, however TVR seems to have rejected all the ideas and suggestions he submitted. The set he presented in Liverpool was designed exclusively by the TVR team, as seen by the viewers. It is also claimed that the broadcaster imposed a slower revamp of the song “D.G.T. (Off and On)” on Theodor, which did not meet his wishes and ideas.
According to Theodor, the budget given to TVR for Eurovision was not properly utilized for his entry, and TVR also refused to fund a music video for his song. So he decided to create a self-financed video. However, this caused further tensions between him and the national broadcaster. Theodor claims that TVR banned him from publishing it and even threatened him and his family. The music video was a success and sparked criticism against TVR.
So far, Romania’s national broadcaster has not responded to Theodor’s accusations.
Theodor will appear in London in July for a concert organised by Platform ’96. Theodor will perform at Stage 002 on 28 July. The event will take place at The Water Rats, a renowned venue steeped in musical history. Bob Dylan, The Pogues and Oasis performed their first concerts at this venue. Theodor will be joined on stage by British alternative rock band Glass Bridges and London-based rock band Minerva.

Coming up next for his second rehearsal is Theodor Andrei from Romania, who is going to perform his song named “D.G.T. (Off and On)“.
Who is Theodor Andrei ?
Theodor Andrei was born in Bucharest, Romania in 2004 and he is just 18 years old! He became widely known by participating in the talent show “Vocea Romanei Junior”, which is the Romanian version of “The Voice Kids”, back in 2017, when he managed to reach the semifinals. Later, in 2020, he took part in the Romanian “X Factor”, where he stopped at bootcamps. Two years later, his debut album named “Fragil” was realised.
After having won the national final of Romania, among eleven artists, Theodor Andrei took the ticket for Liverpool no matter the fact that he was not consiered as the favorite one in advance. However, the public who were 100% in charge of the final result gave him the win.
The Rehearsal
Unfortunately this year, accredited journalists don’t get the chance to watch the first and second rehearsals, so we only get the information and content that the organizers officially release to the public.
Romania is surprising us with the second outfit change of the day. The yellow outfit we saw on Monday’s first rehearsal is now changed to a pink one, which organizers describe as the same candyfloss pink as the one used for Reiley from Denmark. Also the Pikachu socks have been replaced by Spongebob ones!
The live version of the song is completely different from the recorded one – the first half of the song is only accompanied by a guitar and Theodor’s voice, almost acoustic. The second half is stronger, with a clear rock tempo in a performance that feels much more intimate, with Theodor bringing ALL his energy to the stage. The finale is quite impressive, as Theodor is joined by a dancer.

In the afternoon, after the completion of all the rehearsals, a recap video will be released with short excerpts from the footage of all the second rehearsals!
The Dress Rehearsal for Romania and the rest of Semi Final 2 will be held on the 10th of May.

The eighth slot from today’s rehearsals belongs to Theodor Andrei from Romania, who is going to perform his song named “D.G.T. (Off and On)“.
But who is Theodor Andrei ?

The rehearsal
So this feels VERY different from the Romanian national finals, staging-wise – Theodor is looking sharp in a bright yellow shorts suit – we saw him backstage earlier, and it looked a lot like he was wearing Pikachu socks – we’ll try to obtain photo evidence.
This is completely different D.G.T. (Off and On) from the recorded version – the first half is stripped-back acoustic, with just Theodor and his guitar and powerful voice. The second half picks up the rock tempo to a performance that feels much more familiar, with Theodor bringing ALL the sass and energy, as well as a bonus dancer for a dramatic finish. NOT what we were expecting today, but definitely one we won’t forget.
Romania’s second rehearsal is about to take place on Thursday 3/5 when people are going to have a “full picture” of Theodor Andrei’s performance on Liverpool’s stage.
Yesterday, 16th of April, London held the last pre-party for this year’s Eurovision season.
London Eurovision Party 2023 was held in Here at Outernet and presented by Nicki French(UK 2000) and Paddy O’ Connell(former Eurovision commentator for the BBC).
22 Eurovision participants sang in London and you can watch their live performances below:
Australia – Voyager
There is a big difference between the studio version and their live performance. It’s a rock performance and it shows that band songs are meant for live performances. It is indeed difficult to make any predictions, but I wouldn’t be surprised in case it does well with the televoting, even if Australia is usually a jury favorite.
Austria – Teya & Salena
A much loved entry by Eurovision fans and it is worth it. The vocals are good, the chemistry between the duo is splendid, the weird dancing is present and the crowd is loving it. Austria has managed to beat the odds so far, contrary to those who thought that Who the Hell is Edgar was going to be a fan-flop, similarly to last year’s Halo. Now, we will only have to see how it works in Liverpool stage!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlf8Sb5RaUQ
Azerbaijan – TuralXTuran
A beautiful song for sure and regardless the final result, I’m really glad that Azerbaijan finally sent a song that was written by Azerbaijani people. Although, that doesn’t seem to be enough and their performances do not have a large appeal. Probably we will not see them perform in the Grand Final.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLvPB2-2LAc
Croatia – Let 3
The most controversial entry of Eurovision 2023. Controversial is also the whole career of Let 3. Although, everyone thought that they wouldn’t make it to the Final, their live performances prove the opposite. The crowd is having fun and singing with them and their eccentricity will sure be noticed. It looks like Croatia made the right choice!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHnz8Y4SmHI
Czechia – Vesna
A fan favorite to win at first, but at the moment it does not give winning vibes. It was a better performance than usual but it will be a long way for Czechia in order to achieve their result. Their vocals were better but staging still looks messy and chaotic and it does not put across the message of the song. There is still time!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZdTtoA6IcI
Denmark – Reiley
A much better performance than usual but it remains a song that has small potential when live performed. Reiley being famous on TikTok might be helpful for his entry, so I can’t exclude any possibility.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ng571hW6Ro
Estonia – Alika
A beautiful song and impressive vocals. That’s it! It’s another cliché Eurovision ballad, not good enough for Alika’s vocal abilities.
Finland – Käärijä
We can all understand the hype. Exactly like any of his performances, he gives once more the 100% of his personality and energy. The crowd goes crazy and here we have if not the winner, a top 3 contender.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeBDb3QoKss
Iceland – Diljá
Strong vocals and stage presence as Diljá is an energetic performer. Although, the song doesn’t seem enough for Diljá either.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5GrD6IRMfc
Ireland – Wild Youth
A good band performance, full of energy. On the other hand, the song does not stand out for their qualification. It’s not anything new, it’s something done before but it’s not done well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7c03adZUY3I
Lithuania – Monika Linkytė
Monika brought the London Community Gospel Choir for her performance in London Eurovision Party. A vocal powerhouse. The song slowly receives more support and it’s all because of Monika herself. Stay is going to be loved by the juries and we can’t exclude the possibility of the public voting for her. She has a personality and you can’t skip over it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FplK-xqYZ90
Malta – The Busker
Good vocals and great energy on stage. Looks like they are having fun. Frontman’s moves resemble exactly what the song is all about, feeling socially anxious in parties. I really like this entry, but unfortunately it doesn’t stand out and it’s not enough for Malta’s ticket to the Final.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZF3ucUwzok
Moldova – Pasha Parfeni
A really energetic performance of Pasha. The crowd is enjoying it and is probably sending him straight to the Final.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVM4HO6991Q
Norway – Alessandra
Vocally speaking she gets better and better each time. Personally, I don’t mind any voice cracks of Alessandra. She has a really strong entry, her presence is imposing and her view of pre-parties like actual parties, is actually obvious when performing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPRsTpDEV3A
Portugal – Mimicat
Although I’m not a big fan of this year’s Portuguese entry and looks weird to me, Mimicat is vocally flawless and I’m waiting for a better performance on Liverpool to disprove me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COErIMq3AFo
Romania – Theodor Andrei
You will either like it or not. I don’t like it. Vocally he’s good but none of his performances, although far better than the one in Romania’s NF, seems convincing, just messy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwR26PjTJI8
San Marino – Piqued Jacks
In any means, not a bad song. The lead singer is vocally on point. The whole package, although, is not enough.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nep9c326_x4
Serbia – Luke Black
I still don’t get the song. It’s not my favorite entry but it is quirky, eccentric and special. He still looks awkward to me when referring to his stage presence. I’m waiting for his performance in Liverpool!
Slovenia – Joker Out
I love that song! Although, the studio version was not that promising at first, the charisma of every single one of the band’s members is to die for. They are stylish, humorous and committed to what they do. I hope to see that energy in Liverpool and Slovenia finally getting awarded with a good result.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwZIzxI7who
Sweden – Loreen
The real queen of this year’s Eurovision. She teaches every Eurovision winner about when and how to return back. Vocally flawless and she seems to be connected with the crowd. Although, the led platform is missing, her strong personality is here and elevates the song. Personally, I want to see her crowned as a winner again!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCYrO5vspeM
Spain – Blanca Paloma
Whether you like her entry or not, one thing is for sure. No one can deny Blanca’s flawless vocals and how expressive she is. Although, I can’t fully understand the song, because it has many references to Spanish culture, every time I watch her performances, her emotions really touch me. RTVE is here to win, although I don’t think it will be come true. A great entry, one of my favorites, and it is a good example on what should follow the next year after a great Eurovision result.
United Kingdom – Mae Muller
MAE I LOVE U!!!I can’t be completely honest with her. Vocally wise, her best performance. What it is indeed challenging is not exactly her vocals but how it will be staged. It needs some dancing, but mostly sass and attitude. These are Mae’s weapons, indeed. She seems to enjoy it and no matter the comments, crowd loves her. It’s the most mainstream pop song of this year’s Eurovision, there’s no way it will not be placed high!

Eurovision in Concert 2023 took place in AFAS Live in Amsterdam, last night, with 29 of this year’s entrants performing live.
The concert was hosted by Cornald Maas and Hila Noorzai. Cornald has been the Dutch Eurovision commentator since 2006. Hila is a radio DJ and member of the committee that selected this year’s Dutch representatives (Mia Nicolai & Dion Cooper). She also hosted the Eurovision 2021 press conference in Rotterdam.
The artists that performed last night were the following:
Albania – Albina & Kelmendi Familija
Balcan sounds and consistent vocals is what we got from Albina and the Kelmendi Family! Might be the suprise entry of this year.
Armenia – Brunette
Brunette singing about her Future Lover with ethereal vocals and the crowds singing along. Beautiful performance!
Australia – Voyager
Voyager give what they promise! Rock and electronic sounds, so 2025! What is concerning though, is that even though their song is supposed to be very uplifting, the crowd was too static. Also falsetto was not always on point.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx73Q68eWwU
Austria – Teya & Salena
That’s not a song where you can show off some unreal vocals, however it’s the song that will definitely make you dance! And Teya & Salena deliver, solid vocals and much much fun! One of my personal favourites and if you ask me, a finalist and highly likely a Top5 entry!
Azerbaijan – TuralTuranX
TuralTuranX “tell us more” about their entry this year, however I’m still not getting it. A song that I could listen to the radio without complaining, but wouldn’t catch my eye/ear at the contest.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XiT0RvJPn0
Belgium – Gustaph
The queerest entry of the year! His vocals are as good as the studio version! He is a fun guy! This is the kind of entries that I would like to qualify, even though that’s not the style of songs that I normally listen to!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgx-CPHRx5A
Czechia – Vesna
I can only comment on their vocals. They were okay. However, this entry started off as a potential winner, but I’m not getting that vibe, at least not yet. But hey! It’s just a party performance! Let’s wait for their contest rehearsals!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CocNlkxpxdg
Denmark – Reiley
Danish heart-throb Reiley, had his best performance to date. Some minor vocal issues, but overall a nice performance!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuT–QEIyag
Estonia – Alika
Nice song and great vocals! But for me, it’s no more than just that. I wouldn’t be surprised if Estonia got disqualified.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UKYFFFWjgU
Finland – Käärijä
Normally, that’s a song that I can’t stand listening to for more than 10 seconds. Strangely, combined to his eccentric looks and his super nice personality, I could now handle listening to his entire Amsterdam performance! Personal opinion aside, I can totally see why this is a contender for the win.
France – La Zarra
Unfortunately, after a statement in her personal Twitter account, La Zarra announced that she has to cancel her appearance in Amsterdam, due to personal circumstances.
Bonsoir à tous, malheureusement suite à un problème personnel survenu ce soir, c’est avec regret que La zarra ne pourra pas se produire au concert prévu à Amsterdam. Merci à tous de votre compréhension 🇫🇷
I can’t be objective, I don’t like this style of music. I can only be objective about their vocal abilities, which are on point I must admit!
Iceland – Diljá
That’s a song that I would add to my daily playlist, however, this song lacks something that I still don’t know what it is! Diljá’s voice is great admitedly!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjjsWy1R93k
Ireland – Wild Youth
“Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall” x “Ritmo De La Noche” x “We Are One” would be a great mashup! I low-key like this song and I loved their Amsterdam performance. But something tells me that they will struggle to qualify this year. Let’s see what happens!
Latvia – Sudden Lights
Another performance that sounds exactly like the recorded version of their song! I didn’t see the love from the AFAS Live crowd.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1qFm5Wtkgg
Lithuania – Monika Linkytė
Monika definitely sounds even better than the studio version of the song. She will try to claim a high placement in the rankings of the jury voting in this year’s contest! In the beginning I didn’t quite like “Stay“, I can now say that I love her vocals on this track!
Malta – The Busker
They were not bad, not at all sounding bad live, but were they as good as it needs to be to qualify to the final show of Eurovision Song Contest? Song-wise I think not.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIswu3YrrfU
Moldova – Pasha Parfeni
Despite the technical issues with his Madrid performance, Pasha, the Moldovan 2012 representative and returning artist of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, managed to pull off his performance. Great vocals and energy overall!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7LsW-dA_0U
Netherlands – Mia Nicolai & Dion Cooper
It’s really sad to see my 2nd place to perform questionably in their own country’s party concert. Their vocals sound a bit off at times and as a duo their vocals don’t seem to connect on their live performance. I hope they fix it till their semi-final, I don’t want to see them become the shocking non-qualifier of the year.
Norway – Alessandra
Very much improved vocally, Alessandra, gets carried away by the strength of her song and her fans are absolutely loving it! The whistle note was so-so. She will improve, I am sure!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F97_a4eMpK0
Romania – Theodor Andrei
Theodor has a nice voice, but this song is totally “Off and On” so one would either like it or not. I don’t.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gyin57pzpcc
San Marino – Piqued Jacks
Their are very very good vocally. Their lead vocalist sounds like Klaus Meine, frontman of Scorpions band. Their song is not at all bad after all.
Slovenia – Joker Out
I simply love this band and this song! One of my favourites! I love how they sound in each and every appearance they make before the contest. I hope they continue delivering up until the Eurovision finals!
Spain – Blanca Paloma
A blend of flamenco and modern sounds, bringing Spanish tradition to 2023. Her vocals are absolutely amazing. I just don’t get the hype around this entry, it is a great entry for Spain, but definitely not a top 3 entry as many fans are claiming over at social media!
Sweden – Loreen
Her vocals are out of this world! Another amazing performance of the former Eurovision 2012 winner and potential 2023 winner! And for those that claim that she sings with the assistance of an Auto-Tune device, I can assure you that even when she rehearsed in the corridors of Malmö Arena or Friends Arena during the Melodifestivalen season, she sounded exactly the same, or even better than the studio version! My winner for sure!
Switzerland – Remo Forrer
I absolutely love his Amsterdam (and every single one of his) live performance! I can’t wait to see this song complete and staged and Remo joined by his four dancers! I think he will qualify! But let’s wait and see!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGsRTZ5sPcA
Ukraine – TVORCHI
I love TVORCHI and their song and their Amsterdam performance. They sounded really really good, I am a fan of their style of music, but I don’t see this entry winning. Let’s see another country winning this year!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOFkzKOkc_k
United Kingdom – Mae Muller
Come on, she doesn’t sound as atrocious as most of the Twitter people claim. And at least she enjoys it and the crowd loves her! I hope she will do much better in Liverpool!

Theodor Andrei was selected to represent Romania at Eurovision 2023 after winning Selecția Națională 2023. He came second in the telephone vote and first in the online vote.
The song that Theodor will perform in Liverpool is called “D.G.T. (Off and on)“. It has been written by Mikail Jahed, Luca de Mezzo, Luca Udățeanu and Theodor himself. “D.G.T.” is a pun on the Romanian word “degete” meaning “fingers”.
Via a tweet from the BBC’s official Eurovision account, we learn that filming for the postcard that will appear before Theodor Andrei’s Eurovision 2023 performance has begun and is taking place in Bucharest.
The BBC has released behind-the-scenes footage of the Romanian postcard for Eurovision 2023. It’s filmed in Bucharest in front of the Ion Luca Caragiale National Theatre, and shows Andrei miming in front of the statue and having fun.
“I look like if Ozzy Osbourne and a magician had a baby”
This year the Eurovision production team chose to shoot the postcards in the country of each entry, rather than using the postcards to showcase the country hosting the contest.
The countries that we know that their postcards have been shot so far are:
Albania – Albina & Familija Kelmendi
Austria – Teya & Salena
Croatia – Let 3
Cyprus – Andrew Lambrou
France – La Zarra
Germany – Lord of the Lost
Ireland – Wild Youth
Latvia – Sudden Lights
Lithuania – Monika Linkytė
Malta – The Busker
Moldova – Pasha Parfeni
Netherlands – Mia Nicolai & Dion Cooper
