Things are looking ‘Wonderful and Great’ for Eurovision winner Netta with the announcement of her 2024 debut album and a brand new single out now via Hollywood Records.
The single “Wonderful & Great,” described as a “BFF anthem,” is delightfully quirky. Dance beats are combined with a nursery rhyme-style chant and a range of backing vocals to create an exciting, unique pop track.
The lyrics are playful but heartfelt things you say to hype up a friend: “Every time I walk in the street / Everybody say ‘Oh my god, there is she!’ / She is so wonderful and great!” The music video is just as quirky as the song, featuring a tea party that even Alice would find trippy.
Describing the inspiration behind the song, Netta says, “I wrote a love song to that girl who has everything going for her in the most perfect and annoying way.” She continues, “I thought about how we rarely complement free of charge, and wanted to promote this positive exchange of energy between people, and in myself. Turning envy into admiration. This song is inspired by a chant that me and my besties do when we’re walking out of the club at 4 a.m. together after a great night out.”
“Wonderful & Great” follows her anthemic single and accompanying video “Everything,” which dropped in June. The song was a staple of Netta’s June PRIDE performances which she will continue into September, headlining the opening ceremony at EUROPRIDE 2023 in Malta on September 7th and performing at this year’s OUT & EQUAL Workplace Summit 2023 on September 12th.
Her live shows will continue with the ‘Wonderful & Great’ World Tour, which will visit cities across Europe and the U.S. this fall. See the full list of dates below.
