Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song contest national year Croatia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 with the song "Vukovi umiru sami" written by Franjo Valentić and Boris Novković. The song was performed by Boris Novković featuring Lado Members. The Croatian broadcaster Croatian Radiotelevision (HRT) organised the national final Dora 2005 to select the Croatian entry for the 2005 contest in Kyiv, Ukraine. Twenty entries competed in the national final which consisted of three stages: a quarter-final, two semi-finals and a final. Eighteen entries qualified from the quarter-final between 21 and 24 February 2004, and seven entries qualified from each semi-final on 3 and 4 March 2005 to compete in the final on 5 March 2005. In the final, the winner was selected over two rounds of voting. In the first round, the top three entries advanced to the superfinal following the combination of votes from a seven-member jury panel and a public televote. In the superfinal, "Vukovi umiru sami" performed by Boris Novković featuring Lado Members was selected as the winner based entirely on a public televote.
Croatia competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 19 May 2005. Performing during the show in position 20, "Vukovi umiru sami" was announced among the top 10 entries of the semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 21 May. It was later revealed that Croatia placed fourth out of the 25 participating countries in the semi-final with 169 points. In the final, Croatia performed in position 18 and placed eleventh out of the 24 participating countries, scoring 115 points.
Background
Шаблон:Main Prior to the 2005 Contest, Croatia had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest thirteen times since its first entry in Шаблон:Escyr.[1] The nation's best result in the contest was fourth, which it achieved on two occasions: in 1996 with the song "Sveta ljubav" performed by Maja Blagdan and in 1999 with the song "Marija Magdalena" performed by Doris Dragović. In 2004, Croatia managed to qualify to the final with Ivan Mikulić and the song "You Are the Only One".
The Croatian national broadcaster, Croatian Radiotelevision (HRT), broadcasts the event within Croatia and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. Since 1993, HRT organised the national final Dora in order to select the Croatian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest, a method that was continued for their 2005 participation.[2]
Before Eurovision
Dora 2005
Dora 2005 was the thirteenth edition of the Croatian national selection Dora which selected Croatia's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2005. The competition consisted of a quarter-final between 7 and 25 February 2005, two semi-finals on 3 and 4 March 2005 and a final on 5 March 2005, all taking place at the Studio 10 of HRT in Zagreb.[3] The quarter-final was broadcast on HTV2, while the semi-finals and final were broadcast on HTV1.[4][5] All shows were also broadcast online via the broadcaster's website hrt.hr.[6]
Format
Twenty songs competed in Dora 2005 which consisted of three stages. The first stage was a quarter-final where twenty songs competed with the top eighteen proceeding in the competition. The second stage was the two semi-finals where nine songs competed in each semi-final and the top seven proceeded to complete the fourteen-song lineup in the final. The results of the quarter-final and semi-finals were determined by public televoting and the votes from a jury panel. The third stage was the final where the winning song was selected over two rounds of voting: the first round selected the top three songs via votes from the public and jury, while the second round (superfinal) determined the winner solely by public televoting. Ties in all stages were decided in favour of the entry that received the most points from the jury. Public voting included options for telephone and SMS voting.[7]
The jury that voted in all three stages consisted of:[8]
- Aleksandar Kostadinov – entertainment editor at HTV
- Josip Guberina – music director of HRT
- Zoran Brajša – music editor at HR
- Nikša Bratoš – musician
- Larisa Lipovac – choreographer
- Nevenka Mikac – representative of Večernji list
- Zrinka Ferina – representative of Extra
