Azerbaijani public broadcaster Ictimai TV has today confirmed that Safura Alizadeh, the country's candidate for Eurovision 2010, will be performing Drip drop in Oslo.

Safura was chosen as Azerbaijan's entrant for Eurovision 2010 back on March 2nd. The jury preferred her over Milk & Kisses and Maryam Shabanova, but were not sure about what song to send to Oslo. Ictimai TV has officially confirmed today that Drip drop will be their entry next May. Drip drop has been written by Stefan Örn and Sandra Bjurman.
