Tijana Dapcevic, the 2014 Eurovision representative for the FYR Macedonia, premiered  her Eurovision entry To the sky last Saturday.

Tijana presented the song at the Hit na mesecot show, where she performed both the Macedonian version and English version of her Eurovision entry. Elena Risteska, who represented the country in the 2006 Eurovision in Athens, has written the lyrics of  the song. The  composers of the 2014 entry are Lazar Cvetkovski and Darko Dimitrov.

Darko is no new face to the Eurovision Song Contest as he was  the author of the Macedonian Eurovision entries in 2006 and 2013. For the English version, Darko and Elena, received a little help from Laura Rosca, a well-known singer in Romania.

It is not yet clear if  the song will be performed in English or not in Copehagen next May. Tijana stated that she is still thinking about her Eurovision performance.
