The name of the song that Israel is expected to send to Eurovision 2024 - "October Rain" - caused a stir even before it was revealed. Fans around the world are outraged by the political connotation of the name.

The band Gåte, which won the Norwegian pre-Eurovision and considered boycotting the contest, folded - and made it clear that it would participate in the contest.
