The first Nemo song since the ESC victory is here – that’s what “Eurostar” sounds like
The cheers were huge, the celebration was lavish: In May, Nemo won the Eurovision Song Contest and sent Switzerland into ecstasy. Now a new song has been released.
Almost five months after winning the Eurovision Song Conest, Nemo has released a song for the first time. The track “Eurostar” was released on Spotify on Friday night, followed by the premiere of the music video on YouTube at 1 p.m.

In contrast to the ESC winning song “The Code”, “Eurostar” remains without opera elements or major changes in style. The song has a Eurodance style, suddenly with an intense beat in the verse, then without it at all in the chorus.
Party night as a theme
Like “The Code”, “Eurostar” is also about Nemo’s life – but a completely different side of it. While Nemo shows a vulnerable side in the ESC winning song with the theme of nonbinarity, “Eurostar” is about Nemo’s wild side. The Biel personality describes a night of partying in London, where Nemo currently lives. In the song, Nemo reaches the British metropolis from Paris – on the Eurostar train, which gives the track its title.
“Eurostar” is “a song, a feeling, a reflection on my life over the last five months,” said Nemo on Instagram. It is also a homage to dancing. “Energy is always triggered when you listen to music live or in a club together,” Nemo told SRF. “Nightlife is extremely exciting,” says Nemo, “it’s a melting pot where a wide variety of people come together, music worlds mix and new sounds emerge.”
With “Eurostar” Nemo is trying to fill the big shoes of “The Code”. The ESC winning song landed at number 1 in the charts in Switzerland and was viewed more than 75 million times on the streaming platform Spotify. (watson.ch, dab)
