as the deadline approaches for Supernova's song submissions, the first rumours are out!
Have submitted song: · VIŅA (Zelma Jēgere) // debut // most likely a song similar to "blue" as previously stated on instagram stories that her next album will be "the most beautiful one yet". Her rapping era might be put on a pause right now. · PODRUGA // debut // They are an alternative-electonic band and their debut album is in the oven and will be released next year!
Possibly have applied: · Audiokvartāls // returning (though only have managed to get to auditions) // They stated on their instagram stories that they have just begun the work on their Supernova song and if they finish on time they will submit it. Also participated on Latvian X Factor, placing 9th. · Franco Franco // returning // This isn't a very serious one and take it with a grain of salt BUT they recently have been in the studio and one of the members liked a tweet where I speculated that they might be participating hhhhh
Who I think might be participating: · MADARA (Now a band, previously just as Madara Fogelmane) // Have been in the studio this autumn and even tried out Latvian X Factor (failed in the chair challenge). · Markus Riva // to no-one's surprise · Patrisha // although she stated she's not a fan of music competitions, I feel like this might be the year she finally tries out the Supernova stage · Raum (Reinis Straume, previously participated with Double Faced Eels) just a gut feeling, all have been working on new material.

part 2 of rumours!
Have submitted a song: · Citi Zēni // debut // A pop-rock boyband and they have just released their debut album. Had a huge hit last year "Vienmēr kavēju" (Always Late). · Parnish Good // debut // Honestly no idea who they are but they appeared on instagram ads. They have submitted "Just Blending" and it sounds like a joke entry.
Possibly have applied: · Patriks Peterson // debut // A pop song in English? Check. Under 3 minutes? Check. Produced by Kaspars Ansons? Also check. "Can't Get You Outta My Head" is definitely a possible candidate, however I didn't find anything that would prove that he has applied. · Bujāns (Reinis Sējāns and Intars Busulis) // returning // Well. Where do I begin. Reinis Sējāns is a big name in Latvian music industry, having many hits together with Instrumenti. He has also participated in Eurovision before as part of Cosmos back in 2006. Intars is also a very well known singer here having won multiple awards throughout his career. He has also participated in Eurovision once before - in 2009. Bujāns is a duet between those two and recently have released their fifth single together "He, She, You & Me". Both of them are mentors on Latvian X-Factor and they are releasing a new song at the end of each season. This time they are singing in English, have a song under 3 mins and their newly created instagram account follows Eurovision. Now for my subjective opinion that no-one asked for - god I hope they didn't apply/didn't get selected. Surely they are big names and would bring good ratings for Supernova but if it wins I'd be embarrassed. Not only this is their worst song together, it's also not the best idea to send another joke entry to Eurovision after our recent success.
Who I think might be participating: · Toms Kalderauskis has been in the studio recently. · Elizabete Gaile teased that she's releasing new music in early 2022

part 3 of rumours!
Have submitted a song: · Katrīna Dimanta // returning // Katrīna is back after losing to Samanta Tina back in 2020. "My Voice" is the song she has submitted and you can listen to a 15 second long snippet/demo which was released more than a year ago whoops · Mattergy // debut // They are are rock/metal band who released their debut single "Wide Awake" in 2020. Their Supernova song is called "Lightborn" and will be released on 21.12.21! · Miks Dukurs // returning // He's back for his 10th try! He submitted "First Love" and it's a piano-based ballad. Sounds more polished and has a better production than his previous entry. Is it a winner though? Doubt. · Toms Kalderauskis (?& JULIANNA?) // returning // Just saw an instagram story of them two singing at Kaspars Ansons studio. Toms mentioned in an interview he has submitted a song but I'm not sure if it'a going to be with this Julianna girl. · Rihards Bērziņš // returning // his last participation was all the way back in the first edition of Supernova in 2015 and now he is finally back! He has submitted a song called "1+1".
Possibly have applied: · Miks Galvanovskis // returning // Recently released a song in English that's also under 3 minutes and liked a comment under the song that mentioned Supernova. "I'm Just A Sinner" is the song I was writing about. · Laura Rizzotto // returning // It was mentioned by the LTV team that an artist or artists have who have previously represented Latvia at ESC have submitted a song this year. Laura's latest 2 tweets indicate that "she has saved the best music for 2022" and she quoted Katy Perry's "Never Really Over" lyrics that suggest she's coming back to something hhhhh · Diona Liepiņa // debut // Another aspiring X-Factor participant who now wants to try their luck in Supernova. She placed 4th in this year's season and after she was eliminated she said "see you in supernova". Diona was also part of a songwriting camp in September where I suppose she wrote her entry for Supernova.

I know people have already been talking about this on discord, but... If anyone still hasn't noticed, you can already listen to the 16 "Supernova 2022" songs that will fight it out for the ticket to Italy! BUT REMEMBER that some of these songs are still just demo's and the final versions we'll hear only on February 5, when the semifinal goes live... You can listen to full songs/demo's HEREP.S. It's interesting to see some returning artists (Aminata, Bermudu Divstūris (previously as Musiqq), Bujāns (previously as Intars Busulis and Cosmos (1 member)) and Mēs Jūs Mīlam (Ralfs Eilands from PeR)), who have already represented Latvia in the past - if I'm not mistaken this might be the first time that happens... and so many at once...

They've been out since January 5, but many of them are only demos, so expect the official versions on February 5, when the semifinal will be aired - like I mentioned in my post just above yours.

Apparently there was a voting going on to select 17th semifinalist from a list of 10 songs (you can hear all 10 HERE), so the 17th semifinalist after the online vote is Miks Galvanovskis with the song "I'm just a sinner". So now everyone who prematurely made a top 16 of Supernova songs have to make a top 17, which they will again have to change once the semifinal goes live AKA when all the official versions of songs are out.
