Macedonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007
Macedonia was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "Mojot svet" (Мојот свет), written by Grigor Koprov and Ognen Nedelkovski, and performed by Karolina Gočeva. The Macedonian participating broadcaster, Macedonian Radio Television (MRT), organised the national final Pesna za Evrovizija 2007 in order to select its entry for the contest. Fifteen entries competed in the national selection on 24 February 2007 where "Mojot svet" performed by Karolina Gočeva was selected by a regional televote. Gočeva had previously represented Macedonia in 2002 with the song "Od nas zavisi", placing nineteenth.
Macedonia competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 10 May 2007. Performing during the show in position 18, "Mojot svet" was announced among the top 10 entries of the semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 12 May. It was later revealed that Macedonia placed ninth out of the 28 participating countries in the semi-final with 97 points. In the final, Macedonia performed in position 6 and placed fourteenth out of the 24 participating countries, scoring 73 points.
Prior to the 2007 contest, Macedonian Radio Television (MRT) had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest representing Macedonia six times since its first entry in 1998. Its best result in the contest to this point was twelfth, achieved in 2006 with the song "Ninanajna" performed by Elena Risteska. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004, Macedonia had featured in every final.
As part of its duties as participating broadcaster, MRT organises the selection of its entry in the Eurovision Song Contest and broadcasts the event in the country. The broadcaster had previously selected its entry for the contest through both national finals and internal selections. MRT confirmed its intentions to participate at the 2007 contest on 9 November 2006. Since 1996, MRT selected its entries using a national final, a procedure that continued for its 2007 entry.
Pesna za Evrovizija 2007 was the national final organised by MRT that selected its entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2007. Fifteen entries participated in the competition which took place on 24 February 2007 at the Universal Hall in Skopje, hosted by Milanka Rašić, Živkica Gjurčinovska and Igor Džambazov and was broadcast on MTV 1 and MTV Sat.
A submission period was opened for interested artists and composers to submit their songs between 20 November 2006 and 20 December 2006. MRT received 150 submissions at the closing of the deadline. Twelve entries were selected from the open submissions, while an additional three entries were wildcards submitted by well-known artists directly invited by MRT for the competition. The twelve selected songs from the open submissions were announced on 6 January 2007, while their artists were announced on 24 January 2007 along with the three wildcard entries. Among the competing artists was Karolina Gočeva who represented Macedonia in 2002. Among the competing composers, Elena Risteska represented Macedonia in 2006.
The final took place on 24 February 2007. All fifteen competing entries were accompanied by the MRT orchestra, conducted by Kire Kostov, and regional televoting selected "Mojot svet" performed by Karolina Gočeva as the winner. In addition to the performances of the competing entries, the competition featured guest performances by Boris Novković (who represented Croatia in 2005), Elena Risteska (who represented Macedonia in 2006), and Dmitry Koldun (who would represent Belarus in 2007).
On 25 March, Karolina filmed the official music video for "Mojot svet". The music video, directed by the production company Tomato Production, was released on 3 April along with the English version of the song. MRT originally intended for "Mojot svet" to be performed solely in Macedonian at the Eurovision Song Contest, but it was later decided together with Karolina that the song would be performed in a mixture of English and Macedonian at the contest.
