Digital Release Image

Uzari and Maimuna (Юзари И Маймуна) won the Belarus national final and will represent their country in Vienna.
The song they won the final with is called Time.

A new version is recorded for Eurovision and has been released through digital sources.
Listen to the new version at Eurovision TV

"This year, Belarus’ representatives are not going to take any music CDs to Eurovision. Instead, the promo package will include such souvenirs as hourglass-shaped memory sticks and magnets." (from TVR.by)
So there's no cdsingle or promo this year for Belarus. A USB stick, USB card and USB watch have popped up.

In 2020 Uzari released a solo acoustic version of Time through digital sources. It was already recorded in 2015 (Youtube) but has been released as a digital single in 2020. (various release dates are inconsistent)

For Vienna he teams up with violinist Maimuna for the song Time written by Yuri Navrotsky himself and Svetlana Geraskova.
Geraskova also co-wrote the 2011 entry I Love Belarus.
