Czechia’s Eurovision 2025 entry has officially been released, as ADONXS unveils his song “Kiss Kiss Goodbye” alongside its music video.
Czechia’s Eurovision Entry
Back in December, Czech Television announced that Slovak singer-songwriter ADONXS had been internally selected to represent Czechia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Basel.
Fans first heard an acoustic version of Kiss Kiss Goodbye during the first Semi-Final of MESC 2025 (Malta Eurovision Song Contest) in February. Now, the official version of the song that ADONXS will perform on the Eurovision stage has been released.
The song, co-written by Adam Pavlovčin (ADONXS), Adriano Lopes da Silva, and Michaela Charvátová, explores themes of romantic relationships, emotional pain, and the long-lasting impact of childhood experiences.
ADONXS will take the Eurovision stage in Basel on 15 May, performing in the second half of Semi-Final 2, as he looks to bring Czechia back to the Grand Final.
The Music Video
On Friday 7 March, the official music video for Kiss Kiss Goodbye premiered on the Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel. The visually engaging clip reflects on deep childhood experiences and their influence on ADONXS’ life today.
Speaking about the story behind the video, the artist shared:
We wanted to bring an unexpected aesthetic, but above all, to present a strong story with unexpected twists and reveal something real and honest from my own heart – something fragile, which is real, but still hurts a little.
The video serves as a metaphor for human failure, emotional pain, and the struggle with one’s own imperfections. The song itself delves into recurring behavioral patterns in relationships, as well as ADONXS’ longing for unconditional love—a theme shaped by the absence of his father in early childhood.
ADONXS elaborates further:
It’s the story of a flawed, wounded hero who, at a crucial moment, is willing to sacrifice a great leap for humanity in the hope of healing a painful wound in his heart. It’s about how love drives and shapes us—but so does its absence.
The music video was created in collaboration with director Jiří Horenský, Slovak production company Reset Production, and Czech studio See Ya Creative.

Born Adam Pavlovčin, ADONXS is a 29-year-old Slovak singer-songwriter, model, dancer, and actor. His musical influences span multiple genres, and his voice has been described as haunting, deeply soulful, and breathtaking.
A trained vocalist for over a decade, ADONXS’ natural range is basso profundo, the deepest bass, but years of operatic training allow him to reach tenor notes, giving his performances a striking and unique quality.
His breakthrough came in 2021, when he won SuperStar Czech-Slovakia, the region’s version of Idol. Following his victory, he released his debut album Age of ADONXS in 2022, featuring the single Game, which peaked at number 9 on the Slovak charts.
In the same year, he was named ‘Singer of the Year’ and ‘Musical Discovery’ by Czech radio station Evropa 2. His talent has also earned him a place on Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2021.
Beyond music, ADONXS has a background in dance and performance, having competed in—and won—numerous dance competitions.
Czechia at Eurovision
Since first competing as an independent nation in 2007, Czechia has had a mixed record at Eurovision, with its best result coming in 2018, when Mikolas Josef finished 6th with Lie to Me.
In 2024, Aiko represented the country with Pedestal, but failed to qualify for the Grand Final. Now, ADONXS hopes to change that, bringing his theatrical presence and emotional storytelling to the Eurovision stage.
Will “Kiss Kiss Goodbye” take Czechia back to the final? We’ll find out when ADONXS performs in Semi-Final 2 on 15 May.
Lyrics “Kiss Kiss Goodbye” by ADONXS
Blow me a kiss goodbye
Don’t want my tears to dry
One kiss of love, one kiss of desperation
In a moment two of us collide
There’s no other place to hide
Only one survives, when the night arrives
Will you be my ride or die?
You
You seemed so holy
It almost fooled me
Truly
When you said you love me
It almost moved me
Kiss kiss goodbye (Kiss kiss goodbye)
Kiss kiss goodbye (Kiss kiss goodbye)
Now keep your half apologies
Drunken apathy
Over and over again
Kiss kiss
Caught in a motion, you’re wearing me out
Tainted devotion, heart on the ground
Only one survives, when the night arrives
Will you be my ride or die?
Tell me why is that?
You
You seemed so holy
It almost fooled me
Truly
When you said you loved me
It almost moved me
Kiss kiss goodbye (Kiss kiss goodbye)
Kiss kiss goodbye (Kiss kiss goodbye)
Now keep your half apologies
Drunken apathy
Over and over again
(Kiss kiss)
Blow me a kiss goodbye
See how my tears went dry
One kiss of love, won’t feel the same tonight
Uhh…
(Kiss kiss goodbye)
(Kiss kiss goodbye)
(Kiss kiss goodbye)
(Kiss kiss goodbye)
(Kiss kiss goodbye)
Don’t give me half apologies
Drunken apathy
Over and over agаin
Kiss kisѕ
