    For me, this to this day is the best Israel has ever sent to Eurovision. A gorgeous singer with a powerful yet angelic voice and stunning stage presence, and a great catchy tune with the most powerful message. Not many around Europe knew at that time what the song symbolized: A young Jewish girl standing on a German stage less than 40 years after the holocaust, singing about her people still being alive. Even the costumes reflected the notorious yellow star. The beauty of it is that instead of being angry and depressing, the song is cheerful and most of all proud. I remember myself a child watching this live, my first ever Eurovision song contest. I wanted her to win so badly! Today I think that 1983 was simply an outstanding ESC year, all top4 songs were winner material and probably some others too. So 2nd place was still a great achievement. RIP beautiful Ofra!

    The symbolism of this song is incredibly powerful. Here's a beautiful Jewish woman singing in Hebrew in Germany, a country whose Nazi regime tried, just 40 years prior, to brutally erase the existence of the entire Jewish people and culture from the continent. Yet, here she stands, alive, the back up singers wearing yellow as sign of defiance and pride, not humiliation. Nazi ideology failed, Jewish people and culture persisted and thrived. חי חי חי

    Alive
    Listen, my brothers, I'm still alive
    And both my eyes still look into the light
    Many are my thorns, but also my flowers
    And I have countless years ahead of me
    I ask and I pray
    Good thing hope is not yet lost
    A song is passed from generation to generation
    Like a eternal spring
    I ask and I pray
    Good thing hope is not yet lost
    Alive, alive, alive
    Yes, I'm still alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    I'm still alive, alive, alive
    The Nation of Israel is alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    My days rumble (Alive, alive)
    As do my nights (Alive, alive)
    And in my skies, the pillar of fire still stands
    I'll sing forever (Alive, alive)
    I'll reach out my hands (Alive, alive)
    To my friends from across the seas
    I ask and I pray
    Good thing hope is not yet lost
    Alive, alive, alive
    Yes, I'm still alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    I'm still alive, alive, alive
    The Nation of Israel is alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    Listen, my brothers, I'm still alive
    And both my eyes still look into the light
    So kudos to all my guests
    And to my sons who ask to return
    I ask (I ask)
    And I pray (I pray)
    Good thing hope is not yet lost
    Alive, alive, alive
    Yes, I'm still alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    I'm still alive, alive, alive
    The Nation of Israel is alive
    This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad
    And today it's me
    Alive, alive, alive
    I'm still alive, alive, alive

      Sim amigo, mas é verdadeiramente uma pena que ela já está morta por causa do canalha do seu marido que foi infiel a ela e a contaminou com o vírus da AIDS sem que ela soubesse, por isso ela logo veio a falecer em 23 de fevereiro de 2000, triste 😭😭😭😭😭

    this was the first eurovision i saw and i was a 13 year old girl. I remember this performance and I was amazed and I wondered Israel must be a beautiful country, because the song that led to the ESC is beautiful, the singer is beautiful, the choreography is the clothes.
