How do you know that Armenia will participate?
I don’t… If they are not participating I’ll rearrange it…
This was mostly to have an excuse for not learning ^^
Haha, I like that excuse. And I hope they will participate, it would be
a big step for both countries, Armenia AND Azerbaijan…
Heey, what happened to the TEKO 2011? Which was the song with the most votes? Still, I’m glad we’ll have a TEKO 2012, brings back nice memories of the 2011 one.
