Tonight at 19.55 CET, the first semi-final of the Slovenian Eurovision Song Contest pre-selection EMA will take place in Ljubljana.
Seven songs will be selected from tonight’s show, and seven from tomorrow’s.
All but one of the songs have been selected by an internal jury, whilst Eva Černe gets a wildcard as the winner of Bitka Talentov, the same as Omar Naber did in EMA 2005 – which he later ended up winning.
Televoting will be used: People will be able to vote via phone, mobile phone and SMS. In the final round, two entries will qualify for a 'super' final round in which the winner will be decided. If anything should go wrong with the televoting, a backup jury will decide the winner.
Slovenia is one of the six unlucky countries that failed to qualify in every semi final broadcast so far. An�ej De�an finished 16th in the 2006 qualifier round with the song Mr. Nobody. Therefore, Slovenia will have to enter the semi final once again in Helsinki.
