Slovenian broadcaster RTVSLO has revealed more information about the upcoming EMA 2005 selections . Songwriters and composers can submit their songs until 10th December. The provisional date of the Slovenian national final is 13th February 2005.

RTVSLO added that if the standard of songs submitted by 10th December is disappointing, a jury might invite other songwriters to participate in the Slovenian finals after the deadline. Unlike the previous years, songs submitted to the national preselections must be recorded in Slovenian.

RTVSLO is still considering ideas for the format of the 2005 EMA contest and have not ruled anything out at this stage. , though earlier this year Vanja Vardjan, who replaced Mi�a Molk as head of entertainment at RTVSLO, stated that the semi final idea used in 2004 would not be repeated and that the final decision for 2005 would be made by telvoting. Earlier people suggested that the EMA jury was 'influenced' in their decisions.
