After advancing to the semi-finals, held on December 21, 2011, Alyona qualified for the Eurofest 2012 finals as one of the five chosen from the 15 entries. On February 14, 2012, she won the right to represent her country in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan with her song "All My Life".
However on February 24, 2012, it was announced that Lanskaya was disqualified after the Belarusian President conducted an investigation leading to her "unfair" win in Eurofest 10 days earlier after rumors circulated that the producers had rigged the televoting giving her 12 points making her the winner. In response to the allegations, the president ordered an immediate investigation and later confirmed them to be true. She was replaced by Litesound instead, who got second place in Eurofest finals.
"Rhythm of Love" is a song by Belarusian singer Alyona Lanskaya. The song was chosen from nine other songs on 7 December 2012, from the Belarusian national selection Eurofest, gaining the top mark of 12 points from both the public and jury votes.
This song was therefore the initial choice to represent Belarus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 in Malmö, Sweden. After the public contest, the responsible committee of Belarusian BTRC network, decided to replace it and on 6 March 2013 announced the song "Solayoh" to be sung by Lanskaya at the Eurovision Song Contest.
Rhythm of Love is the fifth album by the American R&B/soul singer Anita Baker. Released in 1994, the album peaked at #2 on Billboard 200 and #1 on Billboard Top R&B/Hip Hop chart. The album was certified double platinum giving Baker her fourth platinum selling album.
This is the first studio album by Anita Baker not to be produced by longtime collaborator Michael J. Powell. The album's first single, "Body and Soul", gave Baker her first top 40 hit since 1989. "You Belong To Me" is the second such-titled song recorded by Baker; the first appears on the Giving You the Best That I Got album.
Baker also received a Grammy Award in 1995 for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for I Apologize. Body And Soul was nominated for 1995 Grammy Awards for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Song, and Rhythm of Love was nominated for Best R&B Album.
Rhythm of Love is Baker's last album in Elektra Records. Because of dissatisfaction with album's promotion, Baker filed a lawsuit against Elektra, requesting a transfer to another label in Warner Music Group. Finally she signed with Atlantic Records in September 1996.
The video for the song features the model Joan Severance.
Reception
The single peaked at number six on the Mainstream Rock Chart. It also attained the #75 position on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, while reaching the 59th spot in the UK Singles Chart.
Alyona (Erzyan: Эрзямассонь Олёна, Russian:Алёна, surname is unknown; died 1670) was an Erzyan female ataman during the Peasants' Revolt in Russia under the leadership of Stepan Razin. A peasant by birth from the Vyezdnaya sloboda of Arzamas, she was an elderly nun ("старица") before becoming an ataman. She commanded a detachment of about 600 men and participated in the capture of Temnikov in 1670. She was burned at the stake.
Biography
Alyona was a peasant by birth from the Vyezdnaya sloboda of Arzamas and married a peasant. She became a nun as a widow and learned to read and studied medicine. In 1669, she left the convent and joined the Peasants' Revolt of Stepan Razin as the leader of circa 300-400 people whom she had convinced to join the rebellion. In 1670, she participated in the capture of Temnikov as the leader of her own troops. The 30 November 1670, Temnikov was re-taken by Tsarists troops under Yu A. Dolgorukov. According to a description from 1677, she hid in a church and shot several soldiers before she was taken, embracing the altar, on 4 December. She was accused of sorcery and heresy and sentenced to be burned at the stake. The stake was formed as a small cottage with a hole in the "roof", in which she would be burned. She was to have climbed to the stake in silence, performed her rites, jumped down and closed the hatch without a word, and burned in silence. Alyona is described as an amazon with great physical strength and courage greater than most men.

Над созданием Solayoh работала международная команда.
Авторы музыки и слов - бельгийский композитор Марк Паэлинк и английский поэт-песенник Мартин Кинг.
Песня записана и сведена в Англии на знаменитой студии Abbey Road, которую прославили легендарные The Beatles.
Солнца и тепла добавил турецкий продюсер Сенол Коркмаз -- видеоклип был снят в Стамбуле. Поддержать Алену приехал победитель «Евровидения-2009» белорус из Норвегии Александр Рыбак. Он снялся в клипе.
Песня Solayoh рассказывает об одной из планет Солнечной системы, жители которой открыли секрет настоящего счастья. Им удалось сделать то, что до сих пор не смогли жители Земли -- остановить войны, прекратить споры, забыть про негатив. И теперь главные ценности этой планеты -- искренность, счастье и любовь.
