So I've listened to them all, and here is my ranking :

1. Same Heart - Really good song. The obvious pick for Copenhagen
2. Be Proud - It's fine, but a little generic in parts. Lacks the oomph I was looking for.
3. Nisheret iti - Absolute garbage.

After a quick preview I think they have to go with "Same Heart"...

However, Israel has a tendency never choosing the best song in their internal selections...

1. Nisheret Ti
2. Same Heart
3. Be Proud

Although tbh I'm sure the rankings at the end of it will be the reverse of what I put there.

I have the same ranking and I'm also sure that my no1 will be last in the voting. :(

I must say i am dissapointed. I expected something amazing from her, but i hear 3 quite average songs.
"Be proud" is the closest to what i expected so i pick this, i don't like the other two, at all.

Same heart is a great song which I really like. "Be proud" is my second fav! No doubt one of them will be good for Mei! :)

I like all of them... after 5 time listening to them I'm still doubtful.... for sure not Nish’eret Iti

Probably I like more Same heart but I really like Be Proud intro!

Anyhow it will stay actually in my top5 (behind Poland and Hungary for sure)

On second listen I must say I'm not really that keen on Same Heart. Lyrics don't fit at places and have to be rushed out, something I actually hate but many people must surely like or don't mind, as Only Teardrops suffered from the same molesty and still won the ESC.

It will have to be BE Proud for me only. Somehow I don't feel I'm gonna get lucky :|

Seems like opinion is split between "Same Heart" and "Be Proud" :lol:

I'm leaning towards "Same Heart" at the moment but I won't be upset if "Be Proud is chosen ;)

Don't think so. I believe Same Heart is way on the lead ;)
It's a shame in a way, as Be Proud was apparently written by Mei Feingold herself while the others were written by other people.
She herself must be voting in her own song like a maniac xcrazy

Come on Israel BE PROUD, BE LOUD!!! xbb

"Be proud" is the only sane option here.
Seriously, Mei is a rock chick, she has a raspy low voice perfect for anthemic rock songs, i simply cannot imagine her wit a pop dance beat, it's just not her.
That's why i am not supporting any other song, she has to stay true to what she is and what she's the best at.

Thing is she's not a 'rock chick' she always sang all kinda of stuff (her 1st album is almost purely punk and a bit pop),
So either way I'm counting on her to bring our her A-listergame. :D

Israel is one of my favourite countries in Eurovision so I'm hoping for a good entry this year.

Well that's her problem :D

I'm talking about her vibe, it definitely screams ROCK! ;)
