Firelight, the band which won the Malta Eurovision Song Contest, said today that they had aimed to stand out in the festival yesterday, and they intend to do so again at the Eurovision Song Contest with their song Coming Home.

The group members said they were still coming to terms with their triumph, although they always had confidence in the song.

Formed in June last year, the group consists of Michelle Mifsud (vocals, piano, percussion), Richard Edward Micallef (vocals, acoustic guitar, Appalachian mountain dulcimer, percussion), Tony Polidano (vocals, upright bass, electric bass, acoustic bass, percussion ), Matthew Ellul (acoustic guitar, electric guitar) and Leslie Decesare ( drums, percussion, harmonica).

They spoke to Kristina Chetcuti (See video above).
