"Tears Getting Sober" is a song recorded by Bulgarian singer and songwriter Victoria. The song was composed and written by the aforementioned artist together with Borislav Milanov, Cornelia Wiebols and Lukas Oscar Janisch.
The song was scheduled to represent Bulgaria in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, after being internally selected by the national broadcaster Bulgarian National Television.[1] However, the contest was later cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] After the song was released, the song led the betting odds of winning the contest until the cancellation.[3][4]
"Tears Getting Sober" was entirely composed and written by Victoria herself, alongside Borislav Milanov, Cornelia Wiebols and Lukas Oscar Janisch.[5] The song is inspired by Milanov's experiences while holding a songwriting camp, where this song was eventually written. It concerns mental health issues and motivate people to fight through their problems, even if they have to do it all by themselves.[6][7]
