Rehearsing right now inside the Expo Tel Aviv is Serhat, performing “Say Na Na Na” for San Marino. We will continue to update this article as each run through takes place, so make sure to keep refreshing for the most up-to-date review!
Serhat is joined by two male dancers and three backing vocalists. The performance opens with the dancers and backing vocalists dancing on the middle of the stage.
Serhat stands on a podium throughout the whole performance and is joined on it by the dancers during the second chorus. Before the last chorus the dancers bring out cones that act as megaphones.
The LED screen and the floor show lyrics of the song in pink and golden letters. Serhat himself is wearing a white suit, while the dancers are in white shorts and jackets.
Vocally it sounds just like the studio version and the backing vocalists do the “na na na” -parts perfectly.
