Serbia sends Milan Stanković to the Eurovision Song Contest

esctoday.com national final awards 2010

The 2010 esctoday.com National Final Awards will be held between April and May, which means between the national final season and the Eurovision Song Contest. We will repeat the same format with two rounds for nominations which was used this year - you can read how it works here. However, this time the individual polls for each country will always be held right after the national final, when the entries are still fresh. You can vote for your favourite performance not to qualify in the Swedish national final here and for your favourite song not to qualify here.     


In 2009, Serbia was represented by Marko Kon & Milaan, who finished tenth in the second semi final with their song Cipela but did not qualify for the final as the jury wildcard was given to Croatia. In 2010, the country will compete in the first semi final of the Eurovision Song Contest on 25th May.

I always love the serbian songs very much, especially >Oro< but wake up ... it´s 2010! This is too much traditional AGAIN! We got tired of all this Goran-esque stuff.

Try something different!

You two flaming queens could stop bickering at each other. If you have issues, meet up and have a cock-fight, all that I care! Just chill!

This year ESC: ballad after ballad after ballad... and then this! To be honest, first I was shocked with horrible choreography (I though singer might actually trip over and spoil his 3 minutes) But the rhythm carried me away! So, so , soooo catchy song :) Lyrics are rare stupidity, but the metre... Goran Bregovic did it. He really made it. Serbia should go o the final and score within Top-5... Just fix the dancing, PLEASE...

See what I mean people? It's quite pathetic isn't it? His response merely puts emphasis on what I said, and certainly outlines the truth in that it is impossible to reason with stupidity.

If that most amusing response reflects the standards of my "enemy", then I am a lucky man indeed.

@Union Jack
please don't lie... U hated Molitva,Oro and Cipela and now this... Cipela is ok to don't like... Everybody can see in your profile that there is no Serbia in any row... So I told u F***K off and don't tell me to mature when u should do that... u poor SERB-HATER.. and if u think my accusations are serious... sue me ...


Union Jack [44348]

Furthermore, I should just add that I await in anticipation for Dusan SRB's predictable retort of foul language and offensive discourse. If I remember correctly from last year, he must have the final say regardless of how irrelevant or wayward that say is.


Union Jack [44348]

@ Dusan SRB:

Yes, I remember you and your accusations from last year, and I am sorry to see that you still have not managed to mature at all since then. This accusation of racial hatred against Serbia on my part is a very serious one. It is Defamation and up with it I will put no longer.

Since you fail to explain your problem, I will do it for you! According to Dusan SRB: because I disliked Serbia's song last year, I am 'Serbophobic'. To him, this has been confirmed by me having the audacity to dislike this year's Serbian song. Frankly, who could blame me? And I am quite confident that my dislike for Serbia's 2009 and 2010 entries is a sentiment shared by many. Having said that, Dusan SRB is evidently unabashed by the fact that I physically voted for Serbia in 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008 so there is your Serbophobe.

I will reiterate yet again that you, Dusan SRB, ought to go and define your notion of what 'hatred' is. Disliking a song does not constitute to disliking a nation or race. Going by your logic, I must also hate every country in Europe - including my own!! Going by Dusan's logic, I must only be able to tolerate the Irish, Belgians, Danish, Croatians and Swedish at the moment. Ridiculous isn't it?

Now grow up you moron and don't bother accusing me of your fantastical crimes again.

Ok to all of those scandinavians out there who are deaf and blind ( :D): he does not sing bolibalkan. He is singing Ovo je Balkan. It's the title of the song, it means This is Balkan.

It´s fantastic but too traditional, I´m sick of that.

I ALWAYS loved the songs from Serbia and I surely will do, but it´s too much balkan sound by now and too much Goran-esque.
Wake up and notice that we have 2010 by now!


Dusan SRB [45005]
