Halleluiah

Just a few days ago it was impossible to imagine this moment, but now the

mess created around the song for Israel’s seventieth festivities is behind us.

“At first they said we’ll ask Gali, then they said it’s not Gali it’s Eden,
then they said it’s Eden but together with Gali.” “The state of Israel, in a

nutshell. A mess, everything works out eventually.” Today Atari confirms

that at first there was an attempt to unite her with the ‘Milk and Honey’
band that originally performed the song with her at the Eurovision and

took first place. “Back then everyone had this dream to make a dream that

hasn’t been come true in forty years, come true. The news broke that Eden
(will) sing it on her own, and then all of the people of Israel and the media,

I have to admit, fought for this thing.” And when the government faces a
coalition crisis, the Minister of Culture and Sport Miri Regev runs around

all the preparations for the Independence Day event. On one day she’s at

the Atari and Ben Zaken duet, on another she meets Yardena Arazi and
Lior Narkis who will perform the Hora song to accompany the

reenactment of the dancing circles that followed the declaration of

independence on Iyar fifth. The turmoils surrounding the seventieth
festivities hit us one after the other. This makes headlines and brings the

events into public awareness, but let’s hope that at the end Independence

Day itself will really be festive.
