Last year they didn't have Swedish composer, but Greek, and in 2008 their debut entry composed one Azeri women, Leyla smth..

when i said we got to promote our tradition i meant in 2012 a lot of people came to baku, saw our traditions, learned a lot about us...and in 2012 we promoted our traditions by interval acts which i think was pretty good...i didn't mean Sabina's song...

I'm very glad to hear that....but you've got to admit most people think of us as i mentioned...i've seen some videos on youtube recorded in london...young generation knows almost nothing and older people think we're very close to russians as a nation))...and of course nothing gives any right to no country to cheat...

re: AZERBAIJAN 2014 - Dilara Kazimova

I'm sorry i think i couldn't explain it well...what i meant was...for couple of years we bought songs that had great chances to win the contest...and then when we won we tried to promote our traditions when we hosted the contest...and people seemed to like it)...so our population does NOT want our country to be well known by promoting ourselves with Swedish products.)))...we just wanted to get your attention by those songs and then promote...and this all are just my opinions...i don't know what they think in ITV...i hope this time i explained it clearly

But Sabina's song had also one nice part of Azeri culture - mugham singer!! :) :)

If I had enough money I'd come to Baku for ESC that year! I'd really like to visit Azerbaijan one day!

Our singer Zeljko Joksimovic who was representative of Serbia in Baku said on tv here he was really surprised how good ppl were there and how nice is Baku!! :)

My friend from Bosnia attended ESC in Baku and he told me it was GREAT! :)

Nail, you are from Baku? :)

One of the jury members hopes that Azerbaijan will show their national culture this year: News | Big Stage | Böyük s?hn?

Is she implying that since they have already proven their success with songs imported from Europe, she would prefer that they focus less on the "winning format" and more on showing national culture? That would be a surprising answer.

Oh you fight during the night again and I have not notice anything...why always:lol: ??

Anyway I see all your comments and this that I understand ,(correct me if I had understand wrong),is that Azerbaijan sends foreign composers to improve that they are Azeri...

I know you in :az: may know better but is this a way to show it? I mean with this you most show that you are ?Swidish? and less Azeri..
In my opnion you should send something YOURS to show who are you.Not tranditional but something from your composers and lyricists...and maybe you will not do very well but it all will remember AZERBAIJAN and not Sweden or Greece

Come back and visit. Make sure you use the correct pronunciation, though. :)

re: AZERBAIJAN 2014 - Dilara Kazimova

you know actually i don't think we're concerned about the fact that our esc songs were written by foreign composers....i personally didn't think that would be a big issue for europe...obviously we don't see those 3 minutes at stage as right time to promote something....and there's one more thing which is not well known by a lot of people....every year after selecting our singer ITV anounces that all the composers can send songs from all over the world...and they choose to one that fits the singer best...in 2008 i think our song was written by Govhar Hasanzade, Zahra Badalbeyli

Oh gosh before you begin to fight about :az: and :am: learn this
WHY YOU CAN'T BE FRIENDS???????
Give me a reason....you can't just forget this stupid war???


We in the past was in war with :tr: but now we are friends!Why you can't do it to?
Why you do not accept that this has end?They do not want to kill you any more!
Oh my god I have spend much time speak about :am: and :az: and this that I understand is that all this is just stupid!

We are all friends!Every country!Why you not?
You have many things common!You are both Caucasians countries,you have common tradition,commot habits etc....

I know many Azeris and Armenians who are friends today....I know that you probably do not want to gight but there are many who want and this never stops....it is silly to fight like 5 years old children....

P.S. I think that he writes Ierevan only because that is the pronuncion in azeri.He did not mean somethong with this
