Azeri quest for a 2011 entry begins in September

Azerbaijan will start searching for their representative in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest, to be held in Germany, in September, Head of Delegation Adil Kerimli has told the Azerbaijani Press Agency.

Moreover, Mr Kerimli went on to say that Azerbaijani composers are the preferred option to pen the country's entry for 2011, unlike this year, when the Eurovision preparations were carried out by a foreign team. Azerbaijan Head of Delegation said: "We want to play the song of Azerbaijani composers at the contest next year. We tried it last year but our composers did not make any effort for it".

Azerbaijan was represented at the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest by Safura with the song Drip drop, finishing on the 5th place in Oslo.

so what if trojan lady wished manga's failure!..Do we all ahve to ask for so called Kenan and angelic permition for what we do!>...if any body wants to go to break, toilet etc ask for permition from kenan and angelic whatever, so borring


@kenan also trojan never wished manga's failure, she just told she is not into rock and didnt like trts choice at first , but after the song i remember she was saying manga deserves a top 3 and after the rehearsals when some people were bashing on ferman , she told it is due to bad quality and on final nite everybody will see that there wont be a problem with his voice and he will manage the stage perfectly, she also told they r so good in live, so u didnt have the right to say all these things to her, i agree your reactions r rude many times , bash on racists instead of friendly and lovely ppl like trojan ;)


@kenan and angelic, trojan lady is right safura is 1.82 cm it is also what bulent ozveren told on esc night

Azerbaijan has easiest than other countries to win.
It's like Turkey or Russia... they will always be in the final, and for sure... in top10... whatever they send, being great or being crap!




but she was on a turkish channel and told she is 1.82-83 cm :D

I don't think that she's that tall either! Maybe over 1.70, but not more than 1.80!

''At least this year was a clear proof that Greece don't have all these always ready to vote for us countries!''

You make yourslef sound as fool by this. Just go back to old votings and you will find out.

I heard a door open behind that girl and she didn't finish the song...I guess she was interrupted. :(

Yes. :P

And thanks Orxim for the other links. ;)
I really like Gonna Let You Know, maybe it would've done better than Drip Drop. Good luck, Safura.

Safura looks about 5'5 or 5'6 not any taller than that. Whether she is petite or tall she is very pretty. :)

I don't wish to continue this useless debate! :)
You can have your own opinion and i 'll stick to mine!Thank you!
At least this year was a clear proof that Greece don't have all these always ready to vote for us countries!.Lina said it right!Plus,i think that with televoting alone, Greece would have been higher!Even top-3 even if the song is not something i would listen!
PS:The insult was going to the word you used to describe me which could not be further from the truth at least for anyone who knows me in here...Bye!

Dimitris it seems that you can not realise the reality, even if it is simple. Greeced has exact countries to vote for it every year. I am sure you already know them..............

And this is not a kind of insult.........It is the kind of a citation of a fact.

Orki
I think Safura's album is very good! I like "March on", "Gonna let you know" and "Drip Drop/success remix" the most!


@AvatArmenia 85
