News & Updates

Apologies & Request

I am so sorry for the lack of updates to the site. I can't really excuse myself - I've been very busy with university and some personal stuff, but I should have at least put up a note to explain!

As soon as possible I will update with news about Dana. I'll try to briefly recap what's been going on with our favorite Diva, though:

  • Dana wrote the music and lyrics (with Shai Kerem) for Israeli Eurovision contender Boaz Mauda's entry to the contest. This haunting song is titled "Ke'ilo kan" and roughly translates to "The Fire In Your Eyes" and you can listen to it here. Boaz says in an esctoday.com interview that "it's an honour that Dana International wrote [the song] especially for me" and that Dana will come with him to Belgrade.
  • Dana covered a song by Esther Shamir (who also wrote "Ot Mishamayim") called "Bamakom Hachi Namooch Be'e Tel Aviv" ("At the Lowest Place In Tel Aviv") for Avoda Ivrit 60, a 4-CD compilation of new recordings of Israeli hits by Israeli artists to celebrate Israel's 60th anniversary. You can buy the album here or download it (or just Dana's contribution) on the US iTunes.

REQUEST: Would someone like to volunteer to help me find news about Dana? I can only speak English and most of the news out there about Dana is written in Hebrew. I would so appreciate it if someone would like to help me locate and roughly translate news items about Dana! Just email me and let me know if you can help!

Thanks a bunch! Hopefully I'll update the site sooner rather than later!!!

Updates (finally!) :)
Oops! I promised an update a few weeks ago but never got a chance to update! Better late than never, though, huh? :)

Here's what's been going on with Dana in the last few weeks:
  • The final single from Hakol ze letova is "Yom Huledet" and has received favorable reviews and placed well in the charts. No video was shot for this single.
  • Pelephone, the largest mobile phone company in Israel, awarded the "most downloaded artist" award to Dana at a ceremony on December 20, 2007! Congratulations Dana!
  • Dana finished off her fantastic year with lots of performances and was even featured on the cover of a popular Israeli magazine (Laisha).
Thanks to Moshe of the official Dana forum for keeping fans up-to-date with this recent post!

I've updated a few things on the site as well, including a new layout - hope you like it! Here's some new stuff you can find on the site:
Hopefully there won't be such a long time between updates next time! ;)

News & site updates coming this weekend!
I'm so sorry for appearing to neglect this site - I have been very busy with coursework this semester and unfortunately have not had much time to update this site properly!

This weekend, though, I'm going to post all the news about Dana that I've missed the last few weeks, as well as some more goodies for the site.

Again, sorry for the lack of updates!!

Seret Hodi & Site Updates
There hasn't been a great deal of Dana news for the last two weeks or so, but the big news is that 'Seret Hodi,' with Idan Yaniv, is now the official third single, and is doing well in the charts. 'At Muchana' will probably get a full release at a later date.

Check out the video for 'Seret Hodi' here! There's also a special Dana video feature at msnyombechayey.co.il - see it here.

I've updated the site with a few new things: a great French forum has been added to the Links page; lots of pictures have been added to the Promo Photos '07, Live Performances '07, Events, and Music Video Photos sections in the Gallery; and now you can download the 'Seret Hodi' and 'Love Boy' videos for you iPod in Media! I'd love to hear what you think about the updates, so always feel free to email me!

That's all for now! :) More news will be posted as it comes!
