Eirodziesma, the Latvian final has just finished. After a first round of voting which sent three of the finalists to the Super Final, Latvia decided to send the Pirates of the sea to the Eurovision Song Contest this year.
Ten acts competed tonight for the chance to represent Latvia in the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest. Three were voted to the Super Final : Aisha, Pirates of the sea and Andris Ērglis. After a second round of voting it was decided that the next Latvian representatives are the Pirates of the sea with Wolves of the sea. The band won the semi final by a landslide and it was highly expected they would win the final as well.
The pirates are Aleksandra Kurusova, Jānis Vaišļa and Roberto Meloni. Roberto participated last year as part of Bonaparti.lv. In the super final Andris Ērglis came third, followed by Aisha in second place.
