/3 Comments/in , , , /by

Shortly after her appearance at the United Nations headquarters and Central Park in New York, marking one year since the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, Eden Golan gave an interesting interview to Hollywood Reporter. The Israeli singer spoke about her Eurovision experience, the overwhelming support she received during the televote, and shared her feelings about Marina Satti and Bambie Thug, who both showed hostility toward her in their own way during the competition.

As you will see in her response regarding Marina Satti and Bambie Thug, Eden Golan holds no grudges and wishes them the best. She expressed her desire to completely leave behind everything she experienced in Malmö.

“Good luck. I hope all their dreams come true. I pray. I pray for them. I pray for them to have a good life and be happy.”

Following the release of her new song and her performance of October Rain at the UN and Central Park, Eden remains in the U.S., where she is planning her next professional steps.

UN Invites Eden Golan to Perform ‘October Rain’ One Year After Hamas Terror Attack

/1 Comment/in , , , , /by

Former Israeli Eurovision representative Eden Golan is set to perform the song “October Rain” in New York, as an invited guest of the United Nations. This performance will take place on October 7, marking one year since the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel. The song was initially intended to be Israel’s entry for Eurovision 2024 but was rejected by the EBU. Eden Golan and her team eventually modified the lyrics and changed the title to “Hurricane” to gain acceptance from the organizers and participate in the competition.

Golan, who placed fifth overall in Eurovision 2024 but secured second place in the televote with 323 points, will arrive at the UN with an Israeli delegation led by Foreign Minister Israel Katz.

The memorial event will reportedly include families of hostages still held by Hamas, as well as families of those who were killed on that dark Saturday a year ago. Attendees are expected to include US Ambassador to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, as well as ambassadors from other countries. Prominent figures from the Jewish community in the United States are also expected to participate.

The October 7 anniversary will also be observed at Israeli embassies worldwide. The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs will organize memorial events to mark the anniversary of the massacre at embassies around the globe.

Golan first performed “October Rain” in May at Hostage Square in Tel Aviv, just six days after securing fifth place in Eurovision, during a large rally calling for the government to agree to a hostage deal.

“I wanted to sing ‘October Rain’ tonight. This is my prayer for everyone to come back home. I will not stop making our voice heard in Israel and worldwide until everyone returns home,” she stated.

Sertab Erener’s reaction to Israel’s participation in Eurovision 2024

/1 Comment/in , , , , /by

Videos with reactions, as well as statements by Sertab Erener in this year’s participation of Israel – Hurricane with Eden Golan, have been circulating in the last few hours on the internet. The only winner of the competition for Turkey, condemned the participation of Israel, and with her grimaces, when Eden Golan performed her song on the stage of the contest, she showed her emotions.

The first excerpt is from the second semi-final, in which Israel also participated and in which Sertab Erener appeared as a guest, along with Elena Paparizou and Charlotte Perelli. Sertab Erener while preparing for her own performance in the dressing room, listens to Eden Golan perform Hurricane and her expressions are indicative of her feelings.

The second video is from the final. Sertab is watching the contest and at the time of the Israeli participation, she says to the camera that she is completely opposed to the presence of Israel in Eurovision 2025.

The above does not make any impression, since the Turkish government, but also to an overwhelming extent the Turkish society, is in favor even of the terrorist organization Hamas, many of its members, have found safe haven in Turkey. Israel in the previous decades was one of the closest allies with Turkey. However, in recent years and especially since Tayyip Erdoğan has taken over the government of the country, the two countries have drifted far apart, with Israel now having allied relations with Greece and Turkey considering itself the protector of Gaza, but and the terrorists operating there.

Watch Sertab Erener’s performance in the video below:

Marina Satti waved the symbol of Palestine at her concert in Thessaloniki

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Marina Satti’s concert in Thessaloniki on Monday June 17, at the Lazarist Monastery, was full. Marina Satti, together with the group that accompanied her on stage in Malmö, excited the audience of the Greek co-capital. Wanting to send her own message, our representative at this year’s contest brought with her on stage a huge fan-watermelon, which is used as a symbol of Palestine on social media and beyond.

Marina Satti’s attitude towards the armed conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, provoked many reactions during this year’s competition. Marina Satti’s yawning at the moment when the representative of Israel, Eden Golan, was speaking, became a topic of discussion in Greece and beyond, while the government representative was also asked about the issue, taking a clear distance, at the same time condemning the behavior of the Greek representative in the music contest.

Now freed from the Greek representation, Marina Satti, even though she had initially claimed that her behavior had nothing to do with the representative of Israel, it seems that she is now willing to show her real thoughts regarding the issue in question.
