Belarus - Time - Uzari and Maimuna

Digital Release Image

12 - 39 pts in semi 1

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

The version on the USB promo has a few extra instrumental chords after Uzari sings 'Wait'

In the original he sings 'Wait any monger'

"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.

An Albanian version Një Jetë was released on May 3.
Watch and listen here

A little warning here
It's 2020 and I tried to play the promo CD and it's totally dead now on all devices, the DVD is also not working properly. So if you plan on buying this from Discogs or what have you, please consider yourself warned.  (Thanks Nigel!)

A promo CD/DVD set is issued by RTSH.
The CD features 10 tracks, but it's actually only five and all are included twice.

1. Një Jetë - Albanian Version

2. I'm Alive - Instrumental Version

3. I'm Alive -  Drum ‘n’ Bass Remix

4. I'm Alive -  English Version

The DVD is actually a DVD-rom and it contains photos, lyrics, biogs, the video to the song, a ‘making of the video’ documentary, a travelogue of Albania and a greeting to fans from Elhaida (though this last one doesn’t seem to have any sound!)

Diell
One of the authors of the original song, Aldo Shllaku, has decided to withdraw Diell from the Eurovision competition because of unexpected changes made in the song he was not informed about by RTSH. He views this as a "violation of copyright and professional ethics".
The original song is written by Aldo Shllaku, Viola Trebicka and Sokol Marsi.

In 2013 Elhaida Dani won The Voice of Italy and released a 6-track EP including her radio hit Baciami Basta and tracks recorded at The Voice.
In 2011 she entered FiK with the song Mijëra Vjet (Thousand years), but ended last in the final with 0 points.

MF In the charts
So Melodifestivalen is big business and it makes Lotta Svenska Kronor, but it's good to see a good part of money going to good production of both the TV shows and the records. And a large part of the often recordbreaking televoting revenue always goes to charity, åååååh....
