The winning performance at Malta Eurovision Song Contest 2023: The Busker “Dance (Our Own Party)”
“Dance (Our Own Party)” was written by David Meilak (main band vocalist and guitarist).
But, as usual, Malta’s public broadcaster (PBS) has the right to reverse the results and choose a completely different song for Eurovision 2023, as it was many time, including last year with Emma Muscat. We will see.
