Hakol Over Habibi was an Israeli musical group. They were best known for representing their country at the Eurovision Song Contest 1981 in Dublin with the song Halayla, which finished in 7th place.
Coincidentally, they were originally offered the song Hallelujah as a potential Eurovision entry in 1978, but they turned it down. That song went on to win for Gali Atari and Milk and Honey in 1979.
