Once again, Sweden has won the OGAE second chance contest. Måns Zerlmerlöf and his song Cara mia that finished 3rd in Melodifestivalen were the clear favourites of the juries. 27 juries casted their votes, among them the 20 competing OGAE clubs as well as juries from Italy, Belgium, Austria, Andorra, Lebanon and the rest of the world.
The contest was organised by OGAE Slovenia and the voting was broadcast on satellite TV and via webcast. The show featured guest appearances of many Eurovision Song Contest related stars: Saša Lendero (winner of the OGAE second chance contest 2006 with Mandoline), Eva Cerne (Slovene national final in 2006), Alenka Gotar (Slovenian representative in 2007) and Andrej Babić (composer of Mandoline and the Slovene entry in 2007, the Bosnian entry in 2005 and the Croatian entry in 2003).
