Last years Montevizija winner

Stevan Faddy for Montenegro!

Stevan Faddy has won the first ever Montenegrin Eurovision Song Contest pre-selection, Montenegro Song2007 with the song Hajde kroči. He becomes the newly independent country's first representative at teh longest running televised music competition.

No Name sang their 2005 Eurovision Song Contest entry Zauvijek Moja at the beginning of the show, whilst the guest stars were Dmitry Koldun, this year’s Belarusian entrant singing amongst other songs Work your Magic.

Slovenias’s Alenka Gotar sang Cvet z Juga. Just before the votes were announced, No Name performed Moja Ljubavi, the song which caused one of the biggest voting scandals in Eurovision history last year, resulting in the elimination of the former Serbia and Montenegro from the 2006 contest. A day after Lordi’s victory, Montenegro voted for independence from Serbia.


Since this is the Montenegrin debut in the Eurovision Song Contest, the winner of the final will be performing in the semi final in Helsinki on 10th May.

@ austin kearney

I don't think there is a chance that Montenegro could get 12 pts from Serbia . There are a lot of Montenegrians who live in Serbia , but that isn't enough , their entry is realy realy bad

I have to agree that Montenegro has a disappointing first entry . No finals , but good luck anyway ...

Ooooh, no good. No, no, no. I have NO NAME for this song. It's not Eurovision like, it's not melodic, it's no nothing. Don't think this is political cause i am from Serbia I really mean that this is one of the worst songs so far

@Republika Srpska
Come on... there really are worser songs this year than Faddy's... and don't judge other songs until you don't know who's singing for Serbia... ^^

I think the most hilarious thing about this entry is that one member of No Name is playing drums hahaha!!! I think Montenegro is in serious trouble if these guys are the only real musicians in the country ;)

@ Ivan

Ponavadi Slovenci glasujemo za vse od Hrvaške do Makedonije, a VSI ostali dajete Sloveniji NIČ ali zelo malo točk.

Song from MNG is .........the worst so far this year.

Really disappointing. I think the song must be something to do with crochet, from the sound of it.If it is it gets my vote.

Montenegro will get high points from ex-yu but it wont be enough..Croatia always gets points from ex-yu but never does good :( same as Macedonia..well at least they qualify but i dont know if Montenegro will..still im glad they are here to give more points to ex-yu

Ivan, I believe we really like Balkan tunes and untill some other country comes to the contest with fenomenal Oberkryner music (like Austria tried in 2005 and got 10 pt from us), we'll probably give 12 pt to one of ex-Yu countries.
Now why do we recieve so little points from our ex-yu brothers, maybe because our ethno music is not balcan although it did happen in 1997 the coposer of our song was from Bosnia and this year the composer is from Croatia and those two songs are my favorites Slovenian entries ever.

Good luck Montenegro, with a little rearangement and good perfromance your song will be just fine, the most important is the fact that you can finally participate as independent and can send your own song to the contest!

I don't know...It's nothing special but I have a sneeking suspision that Montenegro will qualify anyway, possibly knocking out a song that might deserve it more like Malta or the Netherlands. I hope I'm wrong and the best songs qualify but there is one shock qualification every year and this could be it...

@ OGAE SLOVENIJA

Well as Djamila said,u r always presented by songs with western style,and Balkanian countries (even Croatia which says that it's not Balkan) like ethno songs,wiht some Balknaian elements.Remember of Severina last year,Zeljko in 2004,No Name 2005 (even i don't have any comment about their entry that year),Tose in 2004...All these songs had some ethno-pop-blah-blah! And Slovenia still give points to us,so that means u like that songs.We were "brothers" in exYU,so your souls are close to our souls even u r in the EU :)

Best wishes for Slovenia,but...i don't think u'll take nice place.It will be good if u enter in the finals.

Im not threatening...I know the macedonian people,if Karolina dont pass the semi-final,here people will be mad on her,especially the singers who were in the competition (Tamara,Biba,Andrijana) they now talk against MKRTV and Karolina, and during the voting all singers left the Universal Hall...they will be very happy if Karolina dont get in the final!!! So...GOOD LUCK KARO!
