Claudia Faniello: “I work with disabled children – Eurovision taught me that resiliance is key”

By Joe Bleasdale

Last week, ESCBubble’s Isaac had the pleasure of chatting to Malta’s Eurovision 2017 representative Claudia Faniello ahead of Eurostarz in Concert at the Water Rats in London. Among other things, Claudia spoke of her recent studies and work in pastoral care, how she fell in love with Eurovision through her brother and why hosting the Contest would be a dream come true for her country.

You can watch the full interview here:

Also, remind yourself of Claudia’s Eurovision exploits with her song Breathlessly:

I'm Joe. I was born in Copenhagen, grew up in London, speak French and Spanish and have been a near-lifelong fan of Eurovision.

I accidentally stumbled across Eurovision after staying up past my bedtime in 2005, then got hooked in 2009, discovered semi-finals in 2011, then national finals in 2016, and now, it's my favourite sport (you can bet on it, after all). I'm also a newly-huge fan of Sanremo, which means I've inadvertantly learned Italian given about 80% of my playlists are made up of those artists.

My all-time favourite Eurovision songs are Sergio Dalma's "Bailar pegados" (Spain 1991) and Lordi's "Hard Rock Hallelujah" (Finland 2006).
