Zeljko Joksimovic's ties to Greece are quite strong as the popular Serbian composer and singer has worked with many popular local artists and is a fluent speaker of the language. His composition Nikola Tesla was released in Greece for the entire world and he has also worked with very popular Greek Eleftheria Arvanitaki in her latest album Kai ta matia kai i kardia/Mirame. Finally, Zeljko Joksimovic has composed the song Poso for Melina Aslanidou's new album.

Thanks to Johnny Logan and Hold me now I fell in love with the Eurovision Song Contest, a love that's been going strong ever since with undiminished passion. My first memories date back to 1977 and the lyrics of Rock bottom, Dschinghis Khan and A ba ni bi are still engraved in my brain.

I joined esctoday.com in 2006 as a junior editor after being invited by Barry Viniker, I soon became Senior Editor and during the 2007 contest in Helsinki I was appointed Head of Communications. Today I hold the post of Head of Human Resources and I am proud to be working with the best editorial team in the world.
