“We are in 2021, Eurovision will happen sooner or later. We are going to play a fragment of a song with which Little Big will go to Eurovision (…) Because we are going to Eurovision!”
However, the song that the show proceeded to play turned out to be the band’s 2020 entry ‘UNO’. It is uncertain if Valdis has made a mistake or if he actually knows insider information.
Little Big at the Eurovision Song contest
Little Big is a popular Russian band from Saint Petersburg that currently consists of four members: Ilya “Ilich” Prusikin, Sergey “Gokk” Makarov, Sonya Tayurskaya, and Anton “Boo” Lissov.
In March 2020 it was announced that Little Big would represent Russia at the Eurovision Song Contest that year with a song ‘UNO’, music video of which became the most viewed on the official Eurovision Youtube channel, getting ahead of Netta’s ‘Toy’. It was also revealed that Yuriy Muzychenko from The Hatters and Florida Chanturia from Leningrad, who featured in the music video, would be joining them on stage. Unfortunately, the contest was cancelled due to COVID-19.
