‘Alter Ego’, sung by the band Minus One who will be representing Cyprus in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, was aired for the first time on Monday night by state broadcaster CyBC.

The song was written jointly by the band and Swedish composer Thomas Gustafsson, whose song ‘Euphoria’ – sang by Loreen – earned Sweden the first spot in the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest.

Minus One, consisting of Francois Micheletto on vocals, Harrys Pari and Constantinos Amerikanos on guitar, Antonis Loizides on bass and Chris J (Ioannides) on drums, were formed in 2009. They began their career as a cover band but they also compose their own songs.
The band will perform ‘Alter Ego’ at the competition’s first semi-final on May 10 in Stockholm.

The band had also submitted a song last year for the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest but it came third in the national final.
