And another one to March..! March 10th is going to be one of the biggest esc saturday's I have experienced since I began to follow the nf..Unfortunately a song presentation will probably not be my priority..I just wish Zeliko presents something good..
March 10 WILL be a super Saturday. Unfortunately my exams will be two days after March 10... I think... Anyway I have high expectations for Serbia. Good luck!
@ Joel Anonymous, Serbia has recently declared a national emergency due to the severe weather, so I think they have far more pressing things on their mind now than an eurovision entry...
In December they told that song would be presented in January. In January they told about Febryary. And now March. Hey, Serbains i am very angry but waiting for your song.
i wonder if it will an uptempo pop song lol
Hopefully we'll hear something great from Zeljko! :).
give it to us....give it to us.....
He is bound to qualify no matter what the song is like, because of who he is. Not keen on his music
For me Serbia is sure qualifier in 2 semi , same for Russia in first semi..
A busy night so it won't be my first choice to watch this show!I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a great song!I'm sure everyone is delaying their selection in order to make a bigger impact but i fail to see the purpose in all this.If a song is strong it will make an impact anyway.15 days later won't change anything IMO.
As much as I like all of his former entries I wish for something a bit different this year.
I wonder if his composition will be a schlager-tinged dance anthem...?
This one I am eager to hear.
Can't w8.
Super saturday! :D
AGAIN MArCH 10 LOLLLLL
March 10 its my BIRTHDAY :)

Come on !!! Everything this year seems to be delayed till March... Best example is Romania. They were among the first to select their song last year (31th December) but this year they are presenting their entry on 10th March ( almost 2 and a half months later compared to last year :( ). Serbia really wants to win it ! I am impressed !
Haha 10th March will be super-busy esc-wise!
