Good luck Israel! I still don't have a whole lot to say about this song and what I have to say is usually negative. Looking at this objectively though I think it could go either way. Qualification is in the roam of possibilities but I am taking another risk and predict Dana is going to fail to qualify. 12 - 14th place in the semis. We'll see if i was right or wrong. Dana may just add some visual tricks convincing the voters to acutally call in for it but I just don't think that will be enough for the juries!

It would be a blamage if a previous winning entrant from Israel didn't make it to the finals.
Double blamage for what Dana said about performing in Germany.
Can you imagine it? I can...

It's not a first hand information but she's supposed to have said that she only wants to perform in Eurovision staged in Germany and she doesn't care about the result. Dunno how true this is.

^Her career has peaked and passed her by and she's already a celebrity in Israel so a bad result really wouldn't mean much anyways.

^^ I don't think it's true because Dana always seemed ambitious and confident to me. I believe she's aiming to finish at least top 10.

Adir will make a better explanation though :mrgreen:

Dana knows what she is doing ;)
Just kiding, but well, from what she said and what I think...she wanna be underrated during the weeks before the Eurovision, and then, in the right time, I think she has some surprises for us, I'm too sure about it, maybe I'm blind, but I'm always right ;)

Dana knows what she is doing ;)

And I totally believe you know after reading the following article (in Dutch):

http://www.eurosong.be/30729/dana-international-komt-naar-idool

Dana is coming to Belgium on May 6th to appear in one of the final episodes of Flemish Idol (which has the highest number of viewers for its broadcaster in the weekly ratings). The show has had some international artists sing their latest song and judge the contestants on their performance, might be Dana's job in this episode. Definitely not a bad move to do so one week before the ESC and in a country that is in the same semi as she is. Don't know about the jury vote, but as far as televoting goes I think you got your first 12 in the bag. So yes, Dana definitely knows what she's doing. ;)

^^^Maybe not for Dana. She can fly to other countries during the rehearsals. In 2009, the Israeli singer Noa, came to Israel after her rehearsals and then back to Russia for the second one!

It's easier to fly to Belgium from Germany than from Israel ;) GO DANA! I ADORE YOU! GO DING DONG!
