Baby
Sometimes love can bring you down
But, honey
Keep your head up
Keep your head up
Keep your head up
Remember who you are

You can call me crazy
Or just call my name
You can say that I'm stunning
It's not a shame
'Cause I know I am
I know I am, hah
'Cause I know I am
I know I am
I like this attitude
I like the game
You can say that I'm brave
I'm never the same
'Cause I know I am (I know I am)
I know I am (I know I am)
'Cause I know I am (I know I am)
Hah, I know I am

Baby, come with me, follow me
Tell me if we can take it to the floor
(Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
I'm the fire, the power
And if you're asking
I was gonna take it all (All, all)

You know I am
You know I am
'Cause I na-na-na know I am, am
And no one brings me down
I'm gonna take the crown
Give it to me now

I'm shameless and I'm spotless and I'm flawless
Always take it up 'cause I'm a winner, I don't want less
Going for the things I should and maybe I'm ferocious
Making you the one I want and I'm not even topless (Be cautious)
It's going down for real
Twenty twenty-two, let's seal the deal
(Middle East) Is the new sex appeal
Bam, bam, this is how it feel

Baby, come with me, follow me
Tell me if we can take it to the floor
(Oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
Ooh, I'm the fire, the power
And if you're asking
I was gonna take it all (All, all, all)

You know I am
You know I am
'Cause I na-na-na know I am, am
And no one brings me down
I'm gonna take the crown
Give it to me now

Baby
Sometimes life can bring you down
But I'll remember
To always keep my head up
'Cause no one brings me down
I'm gonna take the crown
Give it to me now​

KAN will collaborate with another broadcaster to select Israeli entry. Switching to Channel 12 again? :) Though KAN stated that the NF can be broadcast on KAN 11, depends of their decision.

It's gonna be The Next Star or X Factor.

Simon Cowell is going to choose Israel's representative for the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest.
The Israeli franchisee "Reshet" won a tender that gives it the opportunity to choose the next Israeli representative for the Eurovision Song Contest. And the program that received this honor is the Israeli version of The X Factor, which is currently searching for the fourth rib on its judging panel and has already opened the registration track for its auditions.

X Factor Israel will open its fourth season this year. Apparently under the direction of Bar Refaeli. In the third and final season so far. Won Eden Alene. A year before she won another competition that sent her to the Eurovision Song Contest.

The judges announced so far are.

Aviv Geffen - one of the leading singers in Israel. A singer who leads protests.
Neta Barzilai - should not be posted in this forum, it is unnecessary. I'm pretty sure you know who it is
And Simon Cowell - which will be the first time he will judge the Israeli version

X Factor Israel will determine the artist to represent Israel in 2022.
In addition, a special program will be staged to select the winning song for the X Factor Israel winner to sing at Eurovision. I believe it will either be like the 2020 NF or the 2021 NF.

From one singing reality show to another... *yawn*

I mean Israel did get some pretty good entries with such concepts, but in the end of the day it's about the songs (we could clearly see that with Eden, the girl has star potential and is a good vocalist and performer but they still had to revamp and stuff in order to save a so-so entry in 2021).

I mean, it's fine since we got good songs with this process, but I want someone established to represent Israel.. someone who already has his or hers style and not just someone who wins x-factor and has no idea in what artistic direction he wants to go..

An update from X Factor Israel, Simon Cowell, canceled his arrival on X Factor, probably because of all the hustle and bustle that was in Israel a week ago. He will not be part of the judges who will choose the Israeli representative for the Eurovision Song Contest

Totally agree. Especially after the high placements in 2021 for artists who brought their own distinct style, it seems especially uninspiring to just send an X Factor winner.

Israel dropped the ball this year with choosing Eden but having her sing a generic pop song that had no nod to her Ethiopian roots. I suggest Israel correct their mistake and send A-WA, a Yemeni-Jewish group of sisters who sing in Arabic. Interestingly (and according to Wikipedia), their song "Habib Galbi" was the first ever song in Arabic to hit number 1 in Israel.

It's Yemenite Arabic.

The preliminary date of the 1st show is next Wednesday.
If they won't postpone it again. It's all pre-recorded, just air it already :lol:

Tonight is the 1st audition.
The auditions will be divided into a few episodes. Then we will get to the stage when 1 contestant will get eliminated each week. Until 4 finalists are left.

If I understood correctly, each finalist will receive 2 songs for Eurovision right before the final and a special show will decide the best song for each finalist. Thus there will be 4 performers with their ESC songs in the final.
