In an interview following the decision, one of the coordinators of the contest (and author of the lyrics of "Day After Day") Zahra Badalbeyli stated that it was not contrary to the contest rules for Elnur Hüseynov to invite another performer or more to sing with him, and that it was his and Javadzadeh's mutual agreement to perform the song in a duet.
