Promo

A promo has been issued. It includes audio and Quicktime video of Midnight Gold. It may not play on all CD players, but it works on PC and DVD players.

The band was founded in 2000 but has been changing members several times. They have lived and worked in London in the 00's and their music (and look...) can almost be qualified as Britpop.

YGL today are Nika Kocharov (vocals), Gia Iashvili  (bass, vocals), Nick Davitashvili (guitar, keyboard) and Dima Oganesian (drums).

A national final with five songs was held to select the entry for Eurovision. The songs were:
Midnight Gold
Sugar And Milk
Right Or Wrong
Pain In My Heart
Weagree
The songs are no longer available at the TV GE site but Weagree is at soundcloud.

There was a lyric change. On the studio versions our Nika grabs a cigarette out of the bag. At Eurovision (semi and final) he grabbed some Farmer (s) Gold. It's a tobacco brand of sorts.
