Csézy, who won the Hungarian final with her song Szívverés will be performing it in English in the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest in Belgrade.

Csézy, the seventh Hungarian representative in the Eurovision Song Contest, has decided to represent her country with her song in English. As the Hungarian broadcaster confirmed to esctoday.com today the lyrics of the song are ready in English and it will be recorded soon. The Hungarian entry will be entitled Candlelight instead of Heartbeat as the original title, Szívverés, translates.

Five out of the six Hungarian participations in the Eurovision Song Contest so far have been in Hungarian, with the exception of last year's entry by Magdi Ruzsa, Unsubstantial Blues

Thanks to Johnny Logan and Hold me now I fell in love with the Eurovision Song Contest, a love that's been going strong ever since with undiminished passion. My first memories date back to 1977 and the lyrics of Rock bottom, Dschinghis Khan and A ba ni bi are still engraved in my brain.

I joined esctoday.com in 2006 as a junior editor after being invited by Barry Viniker, I soon became Senior Editor and during the 2007 contest in Helsinki I was appointed Head of Communications. Today I hold the post of Head of Human Resources and I am proud to be working with the best editorial team in the world.
