In the midst of war and uncertainty, Israel's vibrant music scene continues to thrive. So what are Israelis listening to RIGHT NOW? Even as the war with Iran rages on, the songs topping the Israeli charts aren't battle hymns — they're the same catchy, feel-good tunes that were popular before the fighting began. Sometimes the most powerful statement a people can make is simply to keep dancing! We're also thrilled to unveil Israel's official entry for Eurovision 2026 — "Michelle" by Noam Bittan - and we'd love to know what you think of it! Tune in for the sounds keeping Israeli spirits high during one of the most challenging periods in the country's history.
