October 13, 20168 yr Author We already knew Romania had submitted their paperwork, but it was down to the EBU whether to accept it. Thankfully TVR are on the right track and the EBU are happy to welcome them back to the Eurovision party! https://escxtra.com/2016/10/13/tvr-reach-ag...return-in-2017/
January 24, 20178 yr 2008 called they want their faux-power anthems to stay in the DNQ zone where they belong.
January 24, 20178 yr Stig Rasta has written one of the songs in the longlist (new G:Son much) and it sounds like its got legs for the NF r31LkE0pvNQ It definitely sounds like Daniel Levi or whoever the Estonian guy of the now is could reasonably be singing this in Eesti Laul.
January 26, 20178 yr So the official longlist is out there but we'll only bother posting that on here once they've narrowed it down to the last 15. The two of note that I want to bring up are Lora who's the most well known of the bunch and there's a live version of the song she submitted which she performed at some (pretty big we'd assume) Awards show so this is probably the early favourite. fgBLmwXy4Fc Also, remember that 'Tear Up The Dark' song that got turfed out of the UK selection but the demo appeared online? Well, one of Ovidiu's backing singers from last year ended up nabbing it for herself. Certainly interesting to compare it to what DID make the UK shortlist now isn't it? nsOx6Zb4y5E
January 31, 20178 yr Another one of note that was submitted. Camp as tents, but it may do very very well in a sea of ballads. gU8GxDbhZ9U

January 31, 20178 yr Author It's getting LOADS of hype, have just listened to it myself. It's not quite novelty and it's not quite mega Romanian party banger, I feel like it needs to go one way or the other. That said, the last minute of the song is fantastic and actually becomes a bit euphoric and the whole thing surely lends itself to big staging. Cezar seemed to straddle novelty and serious to its detriment initially, but the staging in Malmo moved it over to novelty to its benefit. I think this could do the same! Either way, it's miles better than Moment of Silence so woop for that! Adam and Rob will like this I imagine...
February 12, 20178 yr Author Yodel It has made the final 15, so has MIHAI and the other big favourites Instinct and Maxim - the latter is predicted to win with the 100% televote in the final. Most surprisingly eliminations include the Stig Rasta song and the Ovidiu Anton song! https://escxtra.com/2017/02/12/yodel-romani...nationala-2017/
February 16, 20178 yr 'Yodel It!' is amazing. It's VERY 2010, but what a nice little bop it is! Ilinca has a great, lovely and powerful voice. :wub:
February 26, 20178 yr Author Yodel It! has won the semi-final after gaining 60 points from a possible 60 from the juries, there was no televote. However televoting only decides the final and the "Romanian One Direction" did sneak through in 9th so are still a big threat unfortunately. Xandra and MIHAI were 2nd and 3rd in the semi-final.
March 5, 20178 yr Author TONIGHT'S NATIONAL FINAL...

Nicolae Voiculeț who have a very large and active fanbase in Romania. If there is to be a big surprise, Instinct and MIHAI are considered next in line for the title.
March 5, 20178 yr I wasn't BLOWN away by 'Yodel It!' the first time I heard it in studio form, however the live version has a certain charm to it. I mean it's sort of destined to become a Romanian entry I feel.
