Background
Шаблон:MainPrior to the 2004 contest, Israel had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest twenty-six times since its first entry in 1973.[1] Israel has won the contest on three occasions: in 1978 with the song "A-Ba-Ni-Bi" performed by Izhar Cohen and the Alphabeta, in 1979 with the song "Hallelujah" performed by Milk and Honey and in 1998 with the song "Diva" performed by Dana International. Their 2003 entry "Words for Love" performed by Lior Narkis placed nineteenth.
The Israeli national broadcaster, Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA) had been in charge of the nation's participation in the contest since its debut in 1973. IBA confirmed Israel's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 on 20 September 2004.[2] To select the Israeli entry for 2005, IBA opted to organise a national final with several entries. The competition was planned to feature a new format with four shows taking place in different cities across Israel, however, only one final was ultimately held.[2][3]
