Montenegro: Stefan Filipovic in Serbia
Stefan Filipovic has arrived in Belgrade accompanied by a 17 member RTCG delegation. Stefan will be accompanied on stage by Mateja Majerle, Ana Kabalin, Amira Hidić and Martina Majarle who will be singing and dancing with him. The four ladies have extensive Eurovision experience as they have already participated twice, as backing vocalists for Alenka Gotar from Slovenia last year and for Claudia Beni (Croatia 2003). All five will be dressed by Jelena Đukanović, a Montenegrin fashion designer.
Zauvijek volim te (I love you for eternity), created by Grigor Koprov and Ognen Nedelkovski, the team behind Karolina Goceva's entry last year for FYR Macedonia, has been slightly changed since the Montenegrin national final. The new arrangement was made by famous Croatian arranger Remi Kazinoti.
Stefan had a short promo tour in neighbouring countries before leaving for Belgrade. He has visited Bosnia and Herzegovina where he apeared in a very popular TV show "Konačno petak" (Finally Friday) and Ljubljana, Slovenia 3 days ago where he presented his song on several TV shows on RTVSLO.

I don't know why ppl say this is the worst song of competition... I guess everyone are under impression of last year's HORRIBLE entry from Montenegro..
All the best to Sefan !
The song is not bad at all. I didn't like it at first, and it's not one of my favourites now either. But the song is quite enjoyable, I don't skip it anymore when playing the ESC album. Should I add Stefan is (maybe) my fav guy this year? Haha, I think he's gorgeous!

@ CRO-boy
Not you again 
Honestly, the Croatian entry has actually grown on me and at least it makes me want to have an opinion on it rather than just leaving me feel bored. I am definitely curious as to what they do in Belgrade, but it still ain't my cup of tea.
Ireland still has the best song too!!!
@ DannnyT
u forgot to mention Ireland
I actually quite like this song, it has a nice rhythm and he is a good singer. It is much better than what I expected from Montenegro this year and it is also much better than songs from Belarus, FYR Macedonia, Croatia..... I could go on
Song is standardly awful.In last 3 in semi that is for sure.
Only Martina and Almira were backing vocalists last year with Alenka, not all four girls. Anyway, this could be vocally very strong performance! Good luck to Stefan and Montenegro!
i like it!
:/
Thanks a lot *RoyBoy* 90!
Hope The Netherlands will placed high .
Great Song I Love it!!.. u have my vote.. Montenegro!!!!

This is just boring..... I don't like his looks, voice and definately NOT the song!
Lithuania and Montenegro will be last of their Semi-Finals!

Thanks!!! Actually, come to think of it . . . . . . Verka could probably sell anything!!!
@JonnyK
I completely 100% agree with you.
- Ben Gray
I don't think anything can sell this song. Even if Verka Serduchka came on stage and started dancing to it, nobody would vote for it!!!!
(Sorry Montenegro, I'm sure you are great people and wish you all the best of luck, but your song is just naff!!)
OMFG, Seriously, Montenegro, WTF!!!!!!
I mean last years song was crap aswell, but it will still 100 million times better than this and at least Steven Faddy gave a great performance, and the staging was alright. But this year, . . . . . . OMG!!!!! This song takes the meaning of "boring" to a whole new meaning!!!
Good luck to Montenegro from the UK!
Bad song. Wrong decision once again, Montenegro.
BUT I LOVE MONTENEGRO AND ITS PEOPLE.
Good luck anyway.
@ Ben Gray
If anything will sell the song, it'll be his looks.?...please tell me that you are joking...he is not beautifull guy at all...very very average one...and yes i agree...He is just wasting his time.. And the sad part is, HE KNOWS IT....sad bad sad,bad...
He is just wasting his time.. And the sad part is, HE KNOWS IT....
If anything will sell the song, it'll be his looks.
