A last minute change has been made in the line-up for the 2005 Turkish national final. Berna Batmaz of TRT kindly asked us to inform you that Irfan Akdokur and Ümran Akdokur, composers of the song Sen benim aşkımsın, have replaced the performer of their song. Grup Ariana will sing the song instead of Mine.
The new participant list for the 2005 Turkish Eurovision Song Contest selections thus looks like this:
1. Grup Ariana – Sen benim aşkımsın
2. Seçil Hüner – Rumuz andante
3. Gülseren – Rimi rimi ley
4. Nursel Efe – Tek isteğim
5. Barış – Yana Yana
6. Murat Türkücüoğlu – Saydam
7. Sedat Yüce – Yeniden
The 7 songs will be performed during a final to be held in the Ari Studios of Ankara on Friday 11th February.
A professional jury will select the song to represent Turkey at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest in Kiev.
