Alessandra won Norway’s Melodi Grand Prix competition with ‘Queen of Kings’ and will represent the country at the Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool on 9, 11 & 13 May. This performance is from Melodi Grand Prix 2023, courtesy of NRK.
Alessandra Mele is a Norwegian-Italian artist and songwriter. The 20-year-old has lived most of her life in Italy, but decided to move to Norway two years ago after finishing high school as she wanted to get closer to her Norwegian family and to develop her interest in music.
From a very young age she began to sing, dance and cook with her mother to the sound of Frank Sinatra. She took part in her first singing competition when she was 6 years old and won it all with the ABBA classic Dancing Queen. She loves being on stage and feels that this is the place where she can be herself.
The song Queen of Kings is about daring to be yourself and coming out stronger after difficult times in life.
Thank you to our friends at @nrk for providing this performance.
~~~~~ Lyrics provided by NRK ~~~~~
She, Queen of the kings, running so fast, beating the wind.
Nothing in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings, broken her cage, threw out the keys.
She will be the warrior of north and southern seas
Got raven hair, it's dark as night
Icy eyes, out of sight, out of sight
Her heart in spite, is warm and bright
Her smile awakes the northern light
Looking out, she calls! laidadadilaida!
Who will conquer all?
Her name is:
She, Queen of the kings, running so fast, beating the wind.
Nothing in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings, broken her cage, threw out the keys.
She will be the warrior of north and southern seas
A firestone, forged in flames
Wildest card, run the game, run the game
Can't stay the same, in this world of change
Don't fear the pain, just break the chain!
Looking out, she calls! laidadadilaida!
Who will conquer all?
Her name is:
She, Queen of the kings, running so fast, beating the wind.
Nothing in this world can stop the spread of her wings
She, queen of the kings, broken her cage, threw out the keys.
She will be the warrior of north and southern seas

THANK YOU THANK YOU ALL SOOO MUCH FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!!! LOVE YOU ALL ❤ ❤ ❤ MY QUEENS
You are the winner🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴Alessandra i love youu you are the winneeeeer🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴
You should marry Triple H, the King of Kings! Would be the most powerful couple!!!
Love you!! Support from Finland 💙🇫🇮
Good luck from Spain queen 🇪🇦❤️❤️
Just plagiarism it is, the beat is just nicked / Klara Hammarström - Run To The Hills and also Gabry Ponte- Thunder
For sure, it's one of my favourite songs from this year!
Alessandra, you're a very powerful singer! Well done!
Greetings from Portugal! 🇵🇹
Why do I think she may be the Winner? Because Alessandra delivers the perfect blend of a beauuuutiful voice, magnetism, feminity and strength, stage presence, charisma, attitude... This is an anthemic entry, the Liverpool audience will surrender to this Queen of the Kings.
Go check
Thunder - Gabry Ponte
Listen to the similarities.
Ok i've repeated this like 10 times in the past 2 hours, just cant get enough of it.
Love it, much love from Finland.
Have fun in May and win the competition.
I wish you a win👊🏼 Greetings from Poland🇵🇱
12 Points from Poland ❤💪
W imieniu Nas Polaków powiem jedno. My możemy już płakać, a Norwedzy mogą już świętować
@Dorota B-ska nie Noo ta z izraela niezle śpiewa na Żywo ,
Ubolewam nad naszym marnym Solo solo... Sorry...nie naszym..to nie był nasz wybór...
Ja nie płaczę, cieszę się z Norwegami ❤
There is only one Northern Queen and her name is Loreen 😂
To brzmi jak piosenka z siłowni XD
A wonderful song by Alessandra you sing wonderfully !
From me 12 points!!!
Greetings from the Black Sea coast of Russia from the Armenian diaspora ❤👍🖐
Love it! Love to Norway from Finland 🇫🇮🤜🤛🇳🇴 Hope y'all will win! 🎉
2:08 the way her breathing changed, I knew she was trying to preserve capacity for something, and she did NOT disappoint.
Stunning song and performance!!!
Amazing voice!
OVO POBJEĐUJE !!!!
The Nordic battle this year is going to be epic! 🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇴
Probably an unpopular opinion but I think Finland's is kinda... Weird
@Mike Lonette agree 100%. Finland might not even finish top 10 tbh
@MILLI0N Finland totally overrated. Will not even make top 10
@MILLI0N Sweden win easily with Loreen.
@Παύλος Σωτηρακόπουλος ναι, νομίζω και ελπίζω ότι εμείς, οι "Νότιοι" και η ανατολική Ευρώπη δε θα ψηφίσουμε τόσο τα φαβορί, νομίζω δεν είναι τόσο του γούστου μας. Επίσης πιστεύω η Γαλλία θα τα δώσει όλα στη σκηνή, πιστεύω και μουσικά και οπτικά θα αναβαθμίσει το κομμάτι, οπότε έχει ελπίδες να βγει. Εγώ έχω ξετρελαθεί με αυτό, αλλά πραγματικά δε μου αρέσει ούτε η Σουηδία, ούτε η Φινλανδία
Wooow I like this song and I gave it 12 points from Sweden 😍❤️🇸🇪
This is an absolute battle cry. This has the potential to be a huge Eurovision performance. 12 points from my corner of the U.S. ❤
Absolutely majestic! The voice the music the performers. Damn its FLAWLESS 🤩
2:44 sums up how i feel after this song :D not what i would typically listen to, but Alessandra totally kills it! So energetic, such satisfying beats! I'm a fan
One of my favs😍 12 points from Azerbaijan🇦🇿🇧🇻
This is going to look and sound amazing at Eurovision. It's the first song from this year that made me excited for the contest. Good Luck Norway!
Yes! Couldn't agree more :))
Im excited for 🇧🇻🇲🇩🇫🇮🇩🇪🇷🇸🇺🇦
Yes, so far from all the songs I heard this one is the best.
Me too 👏
Same, the others don't have what she has
Really good Norway! Love from Sweden 🙂!
Now that all songs are out, I can say that this one remained my favorite by a galaxy far as I love everything (song, voice, costume, show, confidence, acting, lights, epic vibe, you name it). So, my Queen Alessandra my 12 points are for you, your highness ;)
I Ja.
Agree with you
Is one of my favorite this year. Go for it 💪💪💪. Greetings from Poland. Mes douze points vont à la norvège!
I love the lyrics in this song!! Whenever I feel nervous or anxious, I’m gonna play this song and feel badass! For those into covers, I just posted one for Queen of Kings on my channel ❤
Wow, that's powerfull. Good luck, Norway from Spain ❤
It seems it will be a Scandinavian win this year, Norway, Sweden and Finland all have bangers!
@ExsPert It's just geography, we aren't in Scandinavia. Nordic is the proper term for what most people mean when they say Scandinavia lol.
@RagnarHoff based
Yeah, but if it's one thing we've learned from Eurovision is that originality scores high. Finland is something new and Sweden is a beautiful song with a voice of an angel. Norway is just a copy of "Run to the hills" and everyone is aware of it.
@Von Gröger anyone gets angry of a factually incorrect statement
*Nordic
It has been one of my favourites from the start! Very strong and impactful song! Gjør Norge stolt Alessandra! Ta med trofeet tilbake til Oslo!
Awesome performance and magnificent voice! It definitely deserves be a winner!
Mistrzyni nie mogę się napatrzeć ile energi i z całego gardła świetnie zaśpiewane talent których mało cudo jak dla mnie NR 1 na całym świecie Bravo dziewczyno ty już wygrałaś masz miliardy zwolenników nie potrzebna ci Eurovision bo tam i tak polityka wygra Ukraina biedna to już ustawione dla mnie królowa to ty i zwycięzca eurovision 2023 🥰
*Slay girl, you can bring the winning trophy to your country this year! Norway must be proud of you🇳🇴! I’m from Armenia and I hope that this year Norway can win❤ This girl has the strongest vocal I have ever heard😎*
*Let’s go Norway, Armenia is with you!🇦🇲❤️🇳🇴*
*I hope my country 12 points will give to you!🇦🇲🇳🇴*
12 points from Belgium. Go Norway!!!
Just wanna point out that she was 95 POINTS ahead of the 2nd place song (Ulrikke - Honestly). She was the winner of both the juries and the televoting in MGP. VERY deserved win
Subwoolfer was more original, this Alessandra will be disqualified for stealing Klara Hammarströms run to the hills 😂
@Xxxx Xxxx delusional af
@Uno Night girl ... the song is boring and repetitive for Eurovision. Norway would never win anything with that. It’s this year or never.
@Hoder Jensen no way you're judging a song based on the accent?? people can't help what accent they're having.
@Xxxx Xxxx Hahahahaha you are joking right? Got curious, so just listened to it and she sings with a HEAVY accent, it's so bad. Thanks for the laugh man.
her spirit makes this song so much better!!
Greetings from Poland, We keep our fingers crossed for you. 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🤩❤❤
🇵🇱💗
just WOW!!!!!! what a voice!!!! holy Norway!!! YOU ARE THE WINNER!!!!
Cool song. Love love 🥰🥰🥰
Niesamowity głos. Eurowizja wygrana. Polacy mogą tylko posłuchać i popatrzeć
@Pjoter Pauch należy jej się
Polacy mogą oczywiście jeszcze zagłosować na tą dziewczynę ! Polacy, sprawmy by Alessandra wygrała.
A strong song fitting for a strong national final! Congratulations Norway and Alessandra!
Well chosen music and rhythm, I like this performance Norway 🇳🇴 Super
This should be the winner. Amazing song . Kisses from Greece..
@Olimpia Nisioi Thats not what all the other thousands in the comment are saying but aye everyone got different opinions ig
it's mid
Her voice has so many characters! My ears are hypnotized. She needs to make more songs, like right now!
@Stefan Stanimirovic We Norwegians have heard her voice plenthora times than you have. It is nothing but excellent voicecontrol.
@Iselin Fergestad music and communication we will see how she will be singing on eurovision :))
pffff it was true news in Norway and she performed at Vixen awards also with sickness , it is something she documented herself on her tiktok-channel!
@Ami 195 whenever somebody cant control the voice people are like "he/she" was sick...
The only song I got goosebumps, she just owned the stage♥️
I so love this song and Performance!! 🥰🥰🥰 And she has Charisma, love it 👍❤️
She is just 20 years old and she managed to give this powerful performance! I’m really looking forward for her Eurovision performance. This will be one of Norway’s most memorable entries for sure. Good luck from Albania 🇦🇱❤️🇳🇴!
@LegoAxel who?
Kiske was 1cek to late for sir Dicinson ! Bought of mine top 2 singer
We must discard evil and store up good. Those who do not may be reborn into this world.
Merembrema from Norway :D
@LegoAxel no one cares
One of my favourite Eurovision songs EVER!❤💪🏻
All my love and support from Spain 🇪🇸/🇳🇴.
Wonderful Voice! Amazing Song ❤ greetings from Poland 🇵🇱

Winner !!! 🇵🇱 Congrats Norway ❤
Me encanta ,es súper divertida, qué ritmo más chingón. Los noruegos lo están haciendo bien este año. Saludos desde México.
🎶 This song is amazing! The competition this year seems quite tough. I have two personal favorites, 🇮🇱 Israel and 🇮🇹 Italy, but I wish all the contestants the best of luck. 🇳🇴 Norway deserves a special mention for their beautiful voice and performance. Bravo 👏👏
@The Piano Loft because in my opinion it’s a shallow song.
@YourNightmare why its a great song! And I am an Israeli too haha
Damn people actually like Unicorn. As an Israeli I must say I don’t understand why.
I really love this song❤️! My personal number 1! Greetings form Poland🇵🇱
Oh for me is the Best ❤️ mam nadzieję że ona wygra ! I hope she won!
@Lukasz Kabat wiedziałam ze gdzieś już to słyszałam! :o
Omg same Poland:0
Posłuchaj kshmr marnik - bazaar to zauważysz skąd rytm
I love it ❤ good luck , from 🇮🇱
Incredibly beautiful song! Never listened to Norwegian Tarantella. Brava, Alessandra! 12 points from Italy 🇮🇹
Awesome! Kind of an epic fantasy song with an Armin Van Buuren background... You have my vote this year!!
This year I have a favorite song that is... this. I give millions of points from Spain🇪🇦🤝🇸🇯
THIS IS CALLED THE PURE ENERGY VIBE.
The song and the Alessandra herself, are so powerful and just WOW. Good luck Norway. Greetings from Serbia! 🇷🇸❤️
Bolji je naš jer imamo bolji background
Ovu pjesmu samo žene mogu da slušaju ...ovo je bezveze
Najjača ove god 🇲🇪
I meni je top 🇷🇸
Im swedish, but Norway deserves to win this ❤️💙
My favourite this year. Love from Poland ❤
Trzymam za was kciuki Aleksandra wygracie to 😍 piosenka jest genialna ❤️
Це переможець для мене цього року! 12 балів від України 🇺🇦🇳🇴
Polska przejmuje ten film. Oraz gratulujemy Norwegii wygranej Eurowizji😊😊
Norway has never disappointed! She has amazing voice and the song is really catchy. The potential winner ❤️
@Hulu Lulu prob not a swede since he said melfest instead of melodifestivalen tho
@Low Yas Something tells me you are from Sweden?! But to say that she has copied the costume is just ridiculous... I don't understand how the Swedes can think that they invented this style of music, when it was actually their song that was much more similar to «Thunder»!
@Racio It was before there were semi finals in Eurovision. Long before that.
@Oystein Soreide *Most zero points in finals, but that still meant we made it to the final!!
@JoanMaddie It's called critique, it's a part of ESC. but go off if that makes you feel better.
My favorite song from Eurovision Song Contest 2023! Well done Alessandra! 😍 Greetings from Poland!
2023 Eurovision winner, right here! Thank you everybody else for taking part
Wow awesome voice! 😮🇫🇮❤️
Какой волшебный тембр *.*
La he oído ya varias veces y es apoteósica. Excelente apuesta. Suerte, Noruega.
I'm so f**king proud of you Alessandra! We are all super proud of you here in Italy 💖🇮🇹
Go to Liverpool and win Eurovision!
Vai Alessandra, vinci e spacca tutto per noi!
12 points to Norway from Italy 🇳🇴💖🇮🇹
@JoanMaddie Who care!
Remember Italy can vote in the first Semifinal. Norway partecipate there. I really hope she will get trough to the Grand Final. 🥰✌
@GossipGirl She was born and raised in Italy (Savona is also not that far from Sanremo), then she moved to Norway two years ago she also took part in the voice of Norway singing a Giorgia's song
😂😂😂Questo e song per bambini!!!
ALESSANDRA SEI LA MIGLIORE, SEI PURE ITALIANAA! NORWAY HAS CHOSEN WELL! 🇮🇹🤝🇧🇻
12 POINTS FROM ITALYY!
Как приятно слушать 🔥💛💙
She IS the Queen of Kings. Support from Azerbaijan

@autostrada.łódź Ty tak serio? lol Blanka lepsza niż Alessandra? Powiedz że żartujesz
No chyba sobie żartujesz XDDD

OMG this is good. Well made! and preformed!
What an excellent choice for Norway! Queen has a great voice and her stage presence is just amazing. Good luck from Turkey! 🇹🇷❤🇳🇴
@Marta Martínez Gámez teşekkürler amigo
Mucho ánimo a todos los turcos y sirios por estos momentos difíciles. 💪🇹🇷❤️🇪🇦🇸🇾
@Emir Mert Benim de favorim. Arada detoneler var ama şarkı super, sahne iyileştirilebilir, detoneyi de duzeltirse kesin 1.
Timmy Trumpet - Oracle rip off
Słucham już od rana i energia tej dziewczyny jest nieziemska aż zaraŻa . Czekam na kolejny numer. Jestem JEJ fanką❤
What an amazing voice
OMG.😱 Brilliant, wow so much energy in this show. He's the winner for me. 😍 (from Hungary)
I'm only a quarter Norwegian but this song makes me feel like a viking
Go girl! I wish our Nordic sister win if our country can’t do it. Love this song from Finland🇫🇮
Ale moc!!! Ilość tonacji jakie zaśpiewała SZOK! Świetna wokalistaka ❤️ GRATULACJE ❤️
The real queen of Eurovision
Okay, I ABSOLUTELY love how well she controls her breathing. With song going this fast it's really hard but she does it perfectly. And the high note at the end? It sounds SO GOOD. Her voice is just astonishing in my opinion. The song is pretty basic, it kinda reminds me of Ava Max songs. The very clear role of this song is to empower the listener and it does really well. I think of fits perfectly in the Eurovision
Will vote for you! You have many fans in Israel 💕🇮🇱
I think Palestine 🇵🇸 will win
What a voice. A true beauty in music.
The energy this song gives me is unique! I hope she wins because she deserves it!! NORWAY 2024 🇸🇯❤️
Norway? Jeg er stolt av deg! 12 Points from Germany 🖤
❤❤❤❤❤❤ piękny głos
I get much more genuine vibes from Alessandras performance than from Loreens, even though I like that song as well. I rarely care for the esc style songs, but this is an esc style song and it doesn't bother me at all 😅 I think its Alessandras powerful and raw talent that shines through and gets you all excited for this performance 😁 would totally buy her albumi, hope to hear More from her In the future 😊👌❤️
Esta canción es una de mis favoritas junto a EAEA de España y Tattoo de Suecia, Saludos desde Colombia ❤😊
@Juan777 domeo 😁😁😊
Saludos desde España a Colombia.😉😉😉
Such good powerful song! I'd like it so much! Potential winner of Eurovision 2023❤
Good luck, hugs from Ukraine💓🇺🇦
Nothing in this world can stop the spread of her wings to the top 10 this year! ❤️👑
@JOHN GR How is this EDM?
@ILIAS MAMALAKIS βρε τα χάνω εγώ αυτά; 😂
Pretty sure she will lose though. Last year wasn't very good for EDM on Eurovision.
Jako Polak smialo powiem gratuluje norwegii zasluguje wreszcie na wygrana naprawde super piosenka zdolna mloda artystka serio szczere gratulacje🇵🇱❤️
This song is so amazing 😭
Proud to be Norwegian when I hear this one!😍🇳🇴❤️
Now THIS is an Eurovision song.. Maybe not the strongest in my opinion but it is a song to be proud of!
WOW!!!! Amazing song❤🇮🇱🦄
WOW! The chorus is so infectious, amazing entry Norway! Love from Brazil 🇧🇷
Oi! I hope you like it. Greetings from Philippines 🇵🇭.
She knows she slayed it at the end!!! She performs like a true warrior, the shape she needs to be in, for a show like this - is insane!!! What a queen!!!! 12 points from Israel 👏👏👏
12 points from France!!! My winner this year 🇸🇯🇫🇷😃
Сильная песня ❤️ у девушки такой шикарный голос надеюсь выйграет.
