Laura & The Lovers have won the second of seven semifinals in Lithuania with the song Little by little. Together with El Mar, who finished second and Sea Stars, who finished third, Laura & The Lovers proceed to the Lithuanian final.

Lithuanian broadcaster LRT held its second semifinal of this year's Lithuanian Eurovision Song Contest selections. Another eight artists made a bid to representing Lithuania in Kiev. The Lithuanian audience fully supported Laura & The Lovers by SMS and televoting. For their song Little by little, they received 1743 votes, three times more votes than runner-up El Mar received for their Spanish flavoured La reina of the world.

With a colourful act, Sea Stars finished third with the song Let the music play. Since the top 3 qualifies for the Lithuanian national final, we'll see them back too on 26 February 2005 when Lithuania selects its representative for Kiev.
