In 2018 the Eurovision Song Contest will be held in Lisbon (Portugal), the home country of the 2017 Eurovision winner Salvador Sobral. Pop singer ALEKSEEV won over the jury and the audience with the song “Forever” and will represent Belarus at Eurovision 2018.
In the final of the Eurovision national selection the singer got the highest scores from the audience (5184 votes, or 12 points) and the jury (12 points). ALEKSEEV has already won many awards in many countries of the post Soviet Union. Among them is the Breakthrough of the Year Award of the Muz-TV channel and Singer of the Year of Belarus’ first music awards.
The folk-rock band NAVIBAND, Belarus’ entry at Eurovision in Kiev in 2017, gave ALEKSEEV the traditional reward: an Eurovision heart manufactured on request of the Belarusian TV and Radio Company.
