QUOTE
“Eurovision unites Romania” is the banner and yes, Romania is going big with their national selection Selectia Nationala 2018. The selection will consist of 6 shows in total, in six different cities across the country. Not unlike the famous Melodifestivalen, Sweden’s national selection.

Selectia Nationala 2018

As reported earlier, Romania will be present in Eurovision Song Contest 2018 in Lisbon. According to the national broadcaster TVR, the submission period for Selectia Nationala 2018 kicks-off in mid-November and will run until the middle of December. A committee will then evaluate the submitted entries and select those who will compete in the semifinals. The semifinals will be held in five different cities across the country, while the final is expected to take place in February in Bucharest. However, we don’t know the cities that will host the semi-finals yet.

“Eurovision unites Romania”

TVR’s board of directors approved the timetable for the work, as well as the team for the Eurovision 2018 project. The head of the mission will be Iuliana Marciuc. TVR officials explained that the aim with the expanded national selection process across the country, is to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the country’s biggest expansion, when the regions of Bessarabia, Bukovina and Transylvania united into the Kingdom of Romania after the first Balkan wars and the First World War. TVR will participate in celebrations with various anniversary programs, wishing to bring citizens close to the various events they will organize, with Eurovision being among them.

Seems an ambitious plan for a broadcaster that was forced to sit out last year due to debts, but it's very exciting all the same. Unsurprisingly, Mihai of 'Tornero' and 'Paradisio' fame has already expressed an interest in participating.

Romania's equivalent of Jessie Ware is in with this song that was a reasonably big hit, look out for this one!


Posted by: Styles Bilinski 12th February 2018, 12:30 AM

This only came 3rd in the live show tonight but is apparently still one of the biggest contenders as the final will be 100% televote



Would be another banger for Romania, come on Feli heart.gif

I can't work out how to view this unsure.gif

Edit: they seem to be broadcasting it live on YouTube!


Posted by: Midge 25th February 2018, 10:24 PM

The Humans have won with "Goodbye"!

Posted by: AdamAloud 25th February 2018, 10:27 PM

Goodbye indeed Romania.

Posted by: Midge 25th February 2018, 10:29 PM

What an odd choice - it doesn't feel like this song is going anywhere despite having built up throughout!

Posted by: nickthenoodle 25th February 2018, 10:29 PM

Oh come on Romania you can do so much better than this

Posted by: Liаm 25th February 2018, 10:31 PM

Christ seriously? laugh.gif

Posted by: Ryan. 25th February 2018, 10:42 PM

This is one wrong decision too many for me now, the internals need to be exceptional to save this year!

Posted by: Cameron 25th February 2018, 10:54 PM

Safari deserved better.

Posted by: Styles Bilinski 25th February 2018, 11:29 PM

Oh ffs, everyone must be resigned to the fact that Saara Aalto is going to win so now they aren’t even trying

why are Azeri people not in charge of voting here? A mere 400 votes would lead this to victory

Posted by: Liаm 27th February 2018, 06:54 PM

Ngl I'm still not Safari coming bloody ninth in its semi let alone Buna de iubit not being the entry ffs

Posted by: Midge 12th March 2018, 01:08 AM

The Christian Eberhard Remix of this is much better; wonder if they're going to do what Hungary did in 2013 and send a remix?



"Goodbye" is drab af though, the remix doesn't save it THAT much.
