It was 2008 when Azerbaijan participated in Eurovision song contest side by side with huge European countries. Our country was represented by young singers: Samir Javadzadeh & Elnur Huseynov. They showed a great performance with the song “Day after day” which became very popular in all European countries in very short time.
