Theodor Andrei won the Romanian Selecția Națională and takes his song D.G.T. (Off And On) to Liverpool.
The song is written by Theodor Andrei himself with Mikael Jahed, Luca Udateanu and Luca de Mezzo.
D.G.T. refers to "degete" which means fingers, digits.
Theodor Andrei particpated in The Voice Romania Junior and X-Factor Romania. He has released his debut album Fragil. on October 15 2022. This includes the original version of D.G.T. (Off And On), recorded with Luca Udățeanu.
The single version is sung in Romanian with some parts in English, the original is in Romanian only. The latter is also 42 seconds longer.
I spotted the Fragil. CD at MyCD.ro who seem to serve the international market. I have no experience with them so let me know if you do (drop a comment).
The Eurovision version has some big changes to the original, now starting with a more or less acoustic intro. It has already escaped to the Tube (and the karaoke is already released officially)
The Angello T. remix was released on 27-5. All versions are listed below.
It's available in a variety of digital formats here at Juno. The remix was added to Spotify in 2024.
On August 17 a 6 track digital EP is released with Eurovision medleys, a stripped down live version of D.G.T., Fire In My Heart (From the Romanian 2022 preselection) and more.
The Eurovision 2023 medleys feature all 2023 Eurovision songs including D.G.T..
