"After World War II, Israel was created in Palestine as a homeland for Jews. When Britain left the area in 1948 the State of Israel was proclaimed, and there was immeadiate conflict between the Jewish settlers and the Arabs who were living there. The State of Israel gained a great deal of land in the conflict, and many Palestinians were made homeless. There have been many attempts to make peace between the two sides but the conflict continues."

Just listening to this song, you assume the artist is female. I was shocked to find that this is actually a boy! This song is a ballad, but a rather interesting ballad. HURRAY!
It's mostly sung in Hebrew, which to me, always sounds very mystic and wonderful! It works well in this song. Even without knowing the meanings it sounds very emotional, towards the end i can imagine him bursting into tears, bless!
I think this is a very sweet slow song and I really hope it does well, also half way through it has a little bit of traditional music in there, very funky!

Boring. This and Albania's 'Zemrën E Lamë Peng' are just why I don't like ballads. It's boring. It gets a bit interesting in the middle, then becomes boring again. This is a very unwelcome change from Teapacks last year. Sorry Israel, but I don't think you will do well.
