Ringing and dinging

(Ai yi yi... I have a lot to catch up on here!)

Previously I posted the original Hebrew version of this song, but I know the English version better, having gotten the 45 in Denmark as a kid. It won the 1979 Eurovision song contest, you know.

My geography wasn't deceiving me, no, Israel isn't in Europe. So why are they in the Eurovision Song Contest? Because the Israel Broadcasting Authority is a member of the European Broadcasting Union. (Yes, I know that just pushes the question one step further, but I'm just going to go with it.)

Halleluya (English)
