Belarus - We Are The Heroes - Litesound

16 - 35 pts in semi 2

The song that Litesound sang in the Eurofest is We Are The Heroes, and it was confirmed it will be the Eurovision entry, even if a different entry seemed to have won the Eurofest National Final (see below)

A new, more dance tinged, version was recorded for Eurovision, which is already the third version of the song.
Listen to the new version here at Litesounds website.

All My Life by Alyona Lanskaya (Алёна Ланская) was originally announced as the winner of the 2012 Eurofest in the televisionshow, but it now is Litesound who will represent Belarus.
The updated page of BTRC doesn't mention Alonya Lanskaya as the original winner (or: it doen't mention her at all) so there is no official confirmation that the choice for Litesound is related to irregularities in the voting.

On Valentines day Belarus chose their entry for Eurovision 2012. (... well they had their Eurofest selection)
Five artists were in the running, but it's not guaranteed that the (now, new) winning song will also be the Eurovision entry. Belarus have been known to change songs in the process on several occasions. It is the first time that they ditched and switched the artist though.
