TuralTuranX were internally selected by İctimai Television for Eurovision and mark the first song representing Azerbaijan at Eurovision since 2008 that was also produced in Azerbaijan. Twins Tural and Turan Bağmanov performed as street musicians during the corona outbreak and are also part of a band called TheRedJungle. That is about the entirety of their Bio. 

Tell Me More Sounds like about 15 other songs. There is a bit of Sixpence None the Richer, The Cranberries and even the Sundays in this. The song is cute but not particularly original. It is more annoying because it is not original and it is also quite the earworm. So not a bad song, just annoying

Though Azerbaijan has good results at Eurovision, They have only once missed the final, They generally do more interesting than sellable. In 2013 they finished second with an interesting performance of what was generally just a wanna be Bond song. There was a lot happening on stage in a minimalist way that kept you intrigued by the performance and song was just background. Successful background though.
