Teapacks performing at the Eurovision Song Contest

"Push the Button", known in Hebrew as "Kaftor Adom" (כפתור אדום, "Red Button"), was the Israeli entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007, performed in English, French and Hebrew by Teapacks.[1] This song was the first Israeli entry to feature lyrics in French, as well as the first to feature lyrics in any language aside from Hebrew or English. The entry gained the right to represent the country by an absolute majority, winning 20% of the televote, 20% of the SMS vote, 20% of the pre-vote and 40% of the jury vote. Teapacks had been selected as the Israeli representative by the Israel Broadcasting Authority and invited to perform four songs at the national final to determine which one would be performed in Helsinki.
