RTS, the Serbian national broadcaster has officially announced that Goran Bregović will compose the 2010 Serbian Eurovision entry. A special press conference was held by RTS in order to officially present Goran Bregovic as the 2010 Serbian Eurovision composer.

AWESOME! bregovic may be pompous but his pure brilliance and genious is hard to rival! Bregovic will surely provide serbia the means to another fantastic placing! sa srecom srbija :)
Ant man responsible for gas gas, mesecina and djurdjevdan is amazing in my books!

@ irena denkova

You have no reason to complain then. If the Eurovision Song Contest is really a circus, as you claim, Bregovic's "would-be-masterpiece" will fit perfectly into it.

@Irena

what are you doing in that circus then?
and you perhaps dont know anything about Bregovic music, he is the circus himself.

,his music is great but DEFINENTLY EUROVISION does NOT deserve to have songs from authors like Bregovic they are tooooooooooo great to be a part of this circus :)

I cant stand him, and his exploitive music which is being done only for 1 thing : Money

I think this is really good news for Serbia after last year's disaster. Goran Bregovic is quite well-known, especially among professionals here in France. He appears sometimes in some TV shows. He's a real musician, and there are not so many real musicians in the ESC. So good choice Serbia.

Excellent choice!12 points from me!
Good luck Srbija from Greece :)

@ Zlatko Stojkovski

Bregoviç did not co-compose 'Moja stikla', he wrote the arrangement to it.

It sounds interesting, galantis . athens

Well, it's difficult to predict if Bregovic is a good choice for ESC and if the song composed by him will achieve a good result in Oslo.
The only thing I can say is that it isn't likely that the Serbian entry will be one of my favourites this year since I don't like Bregovic, neither him nor the music he makes.

He will compose three songs, not few. (according to RTS)

where are you from Barbara? why do you think Goran is not a good choice for ESC? hes the ideal choice! to me he's what Eurovision should be about..presenting your own country with something that is authentic to that country! perfect examples: hora din moldova, moja stikla, lejla..goran is perfect

Nathalie Thanou is a silly blonde bimbo for whom everything is just teliaaa . Not sure about her singing abilities .
Goran Bregovic and ESC ...hmmm... not sure about that either.

Bregovic in fact did participate once in ESC as co-composer of 2006 Croatian entry, "Moja stikla" - Severina, together with Boris Novkovic and Franjo Valentic.
