MARAAYA TO REPRESENT SLOVENIA!

Slovenia has decided and it's Maraaya who is off to Vienna. They were in the Superfinal with Rudi Bučar En Figoni. I do really like this one. The violin parts are awesome and her voice will really stands out in Vienna. Maraaya are a duo consisting of Marjetka Vovk and Raay. They actually composed Slovenia's Junior Eurovision entry too. Good job, Slovenia :-)

Vienna 2015: Super Weekend #6!

On Saturday, a total of four countries will select their entries for Vienna and Melodifestivalen will also continue with the forth semi final. The much anticipated Spanish entry will also revealed at 12:00 CET on Sunday too. So we've gout a busy weekend ahead of us!

FINLAND
The Finnish entry will be chosen tonight. Nine acts may be in the running although if the polls are anything to be believed, it' just a formality for handicapped band Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät, Will they win? However Opera Skaala, Satin Circus and Shava also are very popular. I would personally pick either Satin Circus, Opera Skaala or Solju.

• Norlan "El Misionario - No voy a llorar por ti
• Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät - Aina mun pitää
• Satin Circus - Crossroads
• Shava - Ostarilla
• Opera Skaala - Heart of Light
• Jouni Aslak - Lions and Lambs
• Solju - Hold Your Colours
• Järjestyshäiriö - Särkyneiden sydänten kulmilla
• Angelo De Nile - All For Victory

HUNGARY
Hungary also chooses tonight. My favourite is Kati Wolf - will she be picked and return to the Eurovision stage? No idea. I also like Ív and Passed. Boggie has been very popular with the juries.. so will the televote also support her? Ádám Szabó also isn't one to rule out. This is probably the hardest national final to call. I really look forward to see who they pick! Here's tonight's line-up:

• Ádám Szabó - Give Me Your Love
• Boglárka Csemer – Boggie - Wars for Nothing
• Zoltán Mujahid -  Beside You
• Spoon - Keep Marching On
• Ív - Fire
• Kati Wolf - Ne engedj el
• Passed - Mesmerize
• Bálint Gájerc - That's How It Goes

SLOVENIA
Slovenia's song is going to be selected tonight. Eight acts are in the running however Maraaya and Martina Majerle both seem to the the immediate favourites with people. I also have a soft spot for Jana Šušteršič's song - so I wouldn't mind seeing either of those three win tonight. But how about you? Who do you think should fly the Slovenian flag this year?

1. Alya & Neno Belan - Misunderstandings
2. Tim Kores - Once Too Many Times
3. Jana Šušteršič - Glas srca (Voice of the heart)
4. I.C.E. - Vse mogoče (Everything is possible)
5. Clemens - Mava to (We have this)
6. Maraaya - Here For You
7. Rudi Bučar En Figoni - Šaltinka (A šaltin girl)
8. Martina Majerle - Alive

MOLDOVA
I haven't followed the Moldovan selection much this year however I have heard some songs! I heard about Kitty Brucknell receiving only 88 votes on Tuesday and being eliminated, which I'm sad about however the song wasn't up to much really. Sunstroke Project are aiming to make a return to Eurovision tonight - can they do it? Ukrainian Eduard Romanyuta seems to be popular though but will the jury support him? Hmm... Doredos are also great. I don't have a clue who will win to be honest!

SWEDEN
The final semi final of Melodifestivalen is to be held tonight. Here is the line-up..

• Caroline Wennergren – Black Swan
• JTR – Building It Up
• Midnight Boy – Don’t Say No
• Annika Herlitz – Ett andetag
• Hasse Andersson – Guld och gröna skogar
• Måns Zelmerlöw – Heroes
• Dinah Nah – Make Me (La La La)

SPAIN
And finally. the long awaited Spanish entry is finally going to be revealed tomorrow at 12:00 CET. Edurne won't disappoint us. All we know about the song is that it's dramatic and with ethnic elements, and 100% in Spanish! In the meantime though, let's enjoy this awesome tune from Edurne!

The Slovenian entries have been revealed on Radio Val 202, ahead of their national final on Saturday. Eight acts are competing in EMA 2015 and you can listen to them on ESC+Plus. Maraaya, Jana Šušteršič and Martina Majerle are my three immediate favourites!

Slovenia: National final on 28th February!

Will Muff return?

EMA will once again be used to determine the Slovene entry for Eurovision 2015 and the national final has been set for 28th February. The participants are due to be revealed in the coming weeks. 12 acts are due to compete. Six acts will be invited to take park by RTVSLO and the other six will be chosen through open submissions. Moldova, Hungary and Lithuania will also choose their entry on the same date.

Slovenia: National final to select 2015 representative!

EMA will be used once again to select Slovenia's participant for Eurovision. More details will be revealed next month, though. Who would you like to see fly the Slovene flag? Maja Keuc would be my preference.

Slovenia: Tinkara Kovač wins EMA!

Brilliant. Tinkara Kovač won the Slovenian national final - Muff came 2nd. Great choice from Slovenia. Stay tuned for more.

Slovenia: EMA songs released!

Slovenia will select their representative on 8th March and tonight the competing songs were officially presented. A pretty interesting line-up, my favourite is Tinkara Kovač. Nude's song is very nice too - and I also like Omar Naber's song. It's generic rock we've all heard a million times before but it's pleasant nevertheless. Go Slovenia! Take a listen to the songs here!

Slovenia: Participants announced for EMA!

RTVSLO, the Slovenian broadcaster, has announced the seven acts that are going to compete in EMA - and thus the rumours proved to be incorrect. Maja and April are not going to enter, which is a shame, although Omar is back in the quest to represent Slovenia once again.

These are the acts:

• Bilbi
• Muff
• Nermin Puškar & Samuel Lucas
• Nude
• Omar Naber
• Rudi Bučar
• Tinkara Kovač

The songs are going to be released at a later. It should be strong selection. 

Slovenia: Rumoured participants...

Rumours have been circulating around the web regarding who will participate in EMA 2014, the Slovenian national final. And if this is true, EMA is defiantly going to be fantastic!! Maja Keuc, April and Nika Zorjan are among the rumoured names.

The possible acts that will take part are:

• Alya
• Lea Sirk
• Aleks Volasko
• April
• Maja Keuc
• Katarina Mala
• Tinkara Kovač
• Hamo
• Ana Soklič

Confirmation should come soon! The Slovenian national final will take part on 8th March.

Slovenia: EMA to return on 8th March!

After much doubt regarding their participation, it's been announced that Slovenia will select their representative through EMA. The national final will take place on 8th March.

Uh-oh! This is the same night as Melodifestivalen and Dansk Melodi Grand Prix! It will be a hectic night - that's for certain, and maybe there will be another national final that night too as some countries are still to announce their selection date. RTVSLO will invite artists and composers to compete - maybe Maja Keuc will return?

Slovenia: Participation confirmed!

YAY! Slovenian broadcaster, RTVSLO, has officially announced that they will send a representative to Copenhagen. Therefore 37 countries will #JoinUs this year!

Information regarding the Slovenian selection process will be announced very soon - it's very likely they will choose their entry internally. Slovenia were granted a longer deadline to get their finances in order. The Semi-Final Allocation Draw will take place on Monday.
