Back in January, it was announced that Austrian singer-songwriter and producer PÆNDA will be representing Austria in Tel-Aviv at the Eurovision Song Contest this year, and now, she has showed us what her “Limits” for the grandiose contest sounds like.
PÆNDA has released her ballad, which is part of her new album “Evolution II”, with an accompanying music video – and it will surely divide audiences in Israel. According to the 31-year-old musician, this special number tells the story of how she pushed beyond all the limits in her zeal and passion for music to the point of full exhaustion.
Being aware of the moments where I needed a break was a process for me. It was a long and at times difficult road to learning my own limits.
Watch the official music video for PÆNDA’s Eurovision song “Limits” below:
