LYRICS
Words of wisdom
Prophets and Quotes
Wise men talking
Tales from the old
I reach for the stars
Wherever they are
In darkness
We’re lost
Fading away
Refrain:
What if we
Could be free?
Mystify
Our wisdom in time
And one day we’ll see
What if we
Found the key?
Throw the dice
Unravel our lies
And learn how to be
All the madness
Feeding our soul
Take a wild guess
Out of control
There will be a star
No matter how far
Shiiiiii-ning
One day
We’ll sail away
Refrain:
What if we
Could be free?
Mystify
Our wisdom in time
And one day we’ll see
What if we
Found the key?
Throw the dice
Unravel our lies
And learn how to be
Break:
If you don’t know your destination
Who determines your destiny?
Refrain:
What if we
Could be free?
Mystify
Our wisdom in time
And one day we’ll see
What if we
Found the key?
Throw the dice
Unravel our lies
And learn how to be

Biography
Back in 1998, a relatively unknown artist walked out onto the Eurovision stage in Birmingham and sang The One That I Love, with a strong and determined personality that reached into people’s hearts. Jason Cassar and Sunny Aquilina wrote the song, which finished in third place. An artist was born - ‘Chiara’.
Chiara had become a star and between 1998 and 2003 she released three albums in Malta and won the Best Female Artist in 1998 at the Malta Music Awards. In 2000 and 2001 Chiara performed in concert with Leo Sayer and Boney M respectively.
In 2005 she returned to the Maltese finals with Angel written by herself. More determined that ever she performed magnificently and won the ticket to represent Malta in Kiev at the 50th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. In Kiev, Chiara was one of the favourites to win the trophy. She sang her heart out and placed a memorable second.
In that same year, supported as always by her father Chiara worked on her new album. This album consists of a number of great songs written by songwriters from Sweden, Belgium and the United States, amongst Diane Warren, who undoubtedly is one of the most successful songwriters this century has ever seen.
After the great result in the 2005 ESC Chiara has been working a lot around the Island and abroad, especially in Greece and Cyprus. Another highlight was the presentation of the Malta Song for Europe and supporting act during a Michael Bolton concert in Malta both in 2008. The most important change in Chiara’s life however was of course the birth of her daughter Ebony. The loss of her father late 2008, who has always been very supporting for Chiara, was a tough period, but as a tribute to her father, she was determined even more to achieve another success in her career.
2009 marked once again the return of Chiara to the Malta Eurosong finals with What If We written by Gregory Bilsen and Marc Paelinck. Backed by the Maltese people she will once again step out onto the Eurovision stage, to represent Malta in Moscow.

ΒΙΟΓΡΑΦΙΑ:Παλιά γνώριμη του διαγωνισμού η Chiara Siracusa, ή απλά Chiara, καθώς αυτή είναι η τρίτη φορά που εκπροσωπεί τη Μάλτα στο διαγωνισμό της Eurovision! Γεννήθηκε στις 25 Σεπτεμβρίου 1976 στη Valetta και
από μικρή έδειξε ενδιαφέρον για τη μουσική και το τραγούδι. Έγινε κυρίως διάσημη όταν το 1998 συμμετείχε
για πρώτη φορά στον διαγωνισμό τραγουδιού της Eurovision με την μπαλάντα "The one that I love". Το τέλος
της βραδιάς βρήκε την ίδια στο ξενοδοχείο της να κλαίει παρά το γεγονός ότι είχε έρθει 3η! Κατά την επιστροφή της στη πατρίδα της, την περίμεναν στο αεροδρόμιο 6,000 θαυμαστές αφού είχε καταφέρει μια πολύ σημαντική διάκριση για τη χώρα στον διαγωνισμό. Την ίδια χρονιά, η νεαρή Chiara κερδίζει το βραβείο "Best Female Artist" και το όνομά της αντιστοιχεί πλέον στο ψευδώνυμο "Η Φωνή της Μάλτας". Το 2001 τη βρίσκει να τραγουδά πλάι στους Boney M και το Leo Sayer ενώ διάφορα προβλήματα υγείας την εμποδίζουν να ανοίξειτα φτερά της για διεθνή καριέρα -πράγμα που ήθελε πολύ. Το 2005 η Μάλτα εκπροσωπείται για δεύτερη φορά από την Chiara η οποία συγκινεί τον κόσμο με την ερμηνεία της στο τραγούδι "Angel" αλλά τελικά τερματίζει στη 2η θέση καθώς δεν καταφέρνει να ξεπεράσει την Ελληνική συμμετοχή "My Number One" με την Έλενα Παπαρίζου που κερδίζει το διαγωνισμό. Ωστόσο το "Angel" γίνεται η πιο δημοφιλής συμμετοχή της Μάλτας στη Eurovision. Στις 7/2/2009 η Chiara κερδίζει για ακόμη μία φορά το εισιτήριο για τη Eurovision με το τραγούδι "What if we".

LYRICS
What if we
Words of wisdom, prophets and quotes
Wise men talking, tales from the old
I reach for the stars, wherever they are, in darkness
We're lost, fading away
What if we could be free?
Mystify our wisdom in time
And one day we'll see
What if we found the key?
Throw the dice, unravel our lies
And learn how to be
All the madness feeding our soul
Take a wild guess out of control
There will be a star, no matter how far, shining
One day we'll sail away
What if we could be free?
Mystify our wisdom in time
And one day we'll see
What if we found the key?
Throw the dice, unravel our lies
And learn how to be
If you don't know your destination
Who determines your destiny?
What if we could be free?
Mystify our wisdom in time
And one day we'll see
What if we found the key?
Throw the dice, unravel our lies
And learn how to be
