The girl group Constellation, consisting of 4 girls from all across the globe, all united by Llaltese blood, all, except Coco, being born of at least one parent who emigrated from Llalta. Formed in early 2021, they will represent Llalta in the 90th WorldVision Song Contest, the song to be picked directly from the new and improved Llaltavision. Rookies in the music industry, Llaltavision will stage the unbreakable girl group's debut performance, where they will perform 8 songs that have been in the making since January last year, vocals, visuals and choreography all being tirelessly improved and perfected for this very night. Now, with a debut album releasing shortly after their arrival to WorldVision, Constellation are ready to hit the big stage, ready to take on WorldVision, then the multiverse.

Members from left to right:
Dahlia (16, Main Vocalist), Kandice (17, Leader), Jisoo (16, Main Dancer) & Coco (15, Rapper).

SONG ❀ 1
Ribbons
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Esther Winterbourne, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Feel Special" - Twice
~❀~

Ribbons is an upbeat pop song about the red ribbon of fate that ties soulmates together, however, with a twist. Instead, the song focusses on the story of someone who chooses to cut that red ribbon of fate, defying her future for the one she truly loves. With naïve yet cute lyrics of the stubbornness of youth, as well as the beauty of love, the staging will be fun and bubbly, with costume and lighting following the theme of cupid like angels in a dreamlike heaven, marbled pillars and fluffy clouds included. The girls would be dressed up in pretty white dresses, angel wings and halos, like porcelein angels.

SONG ❀ 2
Pounding Heart
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun, Tom Algrove
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Doom Doom Ta" - TRI.BE
~❀~

Pounding Heart is one of Constellation's more bouncy, dance tracks. The lyrics describe that feeling when you're so in love that you laugh in your bed, throwing your pillows in the air out of sheer excitement. The pounding of your heart as it dances to the beat of love. The staging would be simple in design, but not boring. Rather, the group would dance probably the hardest choreography of all their tracks, with plenty of kicks and sharp, bouncy movements to go along with the energetic song. Don't be surprised at the introduction of intense pyros and flashing lights to the tropical beat of the song!

SONG ❀ 3
Icarus
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun, Tom Algrove
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Scream" - Dreamcatcher
~❀~

Perhaps a direct antithesis of the song Ribbons, Icarus tells the story of the four girls of the group representing four sins, and the punishment they face as a result. With dark, powerful lyrics and a powerful, brooding beat, this song is sure to stand out compared to the other tracks as of yet! Staging-wise, the direct divergences between Ribbons and Icarus continues, the theme being fallen angels, much like Icarus himself. With black, torn lolita-style dresses and broken black wings, the girls will dance considering power and impact over being graceful and pretty. The background will be of the fiery pits of hell, with strobes and a manic flurry of flames to go alongside the powerful drop of the chorus.

SONG ❀ 4
Dreamscapes
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Esther Winterbourne, Kaycee Edwards, Kandice Nakamura
Lyrics ❀ Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Sky! Sky!" - Mamamoo
~❀~

Dreamscapes is a cute, standard pop song that is about the vivid wonders that only dreams can design. Within the song's lyrics, the feeling of free flying through beautiful cloud sculptures and flying past creatures never thought of before are described in a rather poetic way, even more pretty than those of Constellation's other songs. The staging will match such wonderous descriptions of dreams, with bright, pastel colours in a painted sky alongside 3D effects to immerse the viewer into Constellation's world. They too, will be dressed up in feminine, pastel outfits that highlight the figures and free-spirited feel of the choreography.

SONG ❀ 5
Sunspots
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Esther Winterbourne, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun, Tom Algrove
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Rollin' (New Version)" - Brave Girls
~❀~

Sunspots is perhaps the most summery of Constellation's discography thus far, about the simple joys of dancing with friends in the summer while the sun shines upon your skin. With a tropical beat and a vivacious saxophone, this track has the girl's dancing, smiling and singing to the catchy melody. The staging will make sure to include neon lights and a clear, starry sky at the most sentimental of sections, while making sure to turn up the lights at the chorus, with fireworks and lasers filling the arena with a frenzy of fun. The girls will wear casual, party clothes all in neon colours, and an 80s style influencing the smaller details.

SONG ❀ 6
Anthem
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun, Tom Algrove
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Dun Dun" - Everglow
~❀~

Anthem is definitely in contention for Constellation's biggest. With a powerful beat and vocals filled with nothing but pure attitude and energy, Anthem is a song that will definitely make an impact. Not only does the music make an impact, but so does the choreography, specially choreographed by one of the biggest names in dance: Abby Lee Miller. With a striking routine that makes sure to hit every beat with full force, it may even tire the audience as much as the girls, especially Jisoo, who's hip-hop and dance talents take centre stage. Furthermore, the staging, though perhaps rather basic, lives to highlight Constellation's powerful vocals, Coco making a starring role in the song. With outfits of a sleek silver and black, and simplistic but bright, flashy lights, Anthem is not one to be forgotten.

SONG ❀ 7
Oath
Music ❀ Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden
Lyrics ❀ Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Daydream" - Dreamcatcher
~❀~

Oath is perhaps one of Constellation's slower songs, being written and composed by all the girls as a way to commemorate their oath to be together forever. A soft, meaningful ballad that showcases the girl groups strong friendship and bond in all it's fullest. Far tamer than the rest of their discography, Oath contains the rawest lyrics of their whole track list, with poetic, fragile yet striking lyrics that hit the heart of the viewer like nothing else. The staging would also be as simplistic and raw as the song itself, with a mostly dark stage with fireflies flickering and dancing as the girls sit in a semicircle and sing to each other, as if it were a bonfire, Dahlia Hawthorne on the guitar, an instrument she has been playing since birth. An emotional, subtle performance much like the beauty of Llaltese staging before, close to the hearts of all members of Constellation.

SONG ❀ 8
Pray For Me
Music ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Kaycee Edwards, Kim Daehyun, Tom Algrove
Lyrics ❀ Alexhander Carmendock, Dahlia Hawthorne, Kandice Nakamura, Lee Ji-soo, Coco Harbonnworth-Arden

~❀~
"Deja-Vu" - Dreamcatcher
~❀~

The final song of Llaltavision, Pray For Me is far from the least. A powerful pop-rock song, the song's lyrics describe a desperate cry for help. With dark, powerful lyrics, the song is by far the most powerful, with loud drums and a whole choir allowing the chorus of Pray For Me to flourish into a stunning flower of song. Heavy hitting, the staging will also live up to the drama of the song. Key features will include staging with a theme of black flowers, the girls to be dressed in pretty, fragile yet moveable dresses that allow for the powerful choreography of the song. Not only this, but be sure to except plenty of onstage surprises, such as sudden pyres of flames and lights strobing like there's no tomorrow.
