Romania: Nico & Vlad Mirita enter the top 100

Nico and Vlad Mirita, the Romanian representatives of the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 with the song Pe-o margine de lume entered the Romanian top 100 charts at number 76 while on the visitors top charts they are at number 9.

Nico and Vlad Mirita will represent Romania with the song Pe-o mergine de lume (On the edge of the world) composed by Andrei Tudor who will also appear on stage playing the piano. The stage performance of the Romanian duet still remains a mystery but as they stated their performance will be a surprise.

The Romanian representatives started their promo tour from Greece where they appeared on the Greek national final. But that was not all. They gave interviews on many major TV channels in Greece, in newspapers, sites all over Europe, they appeared and performed their Eurovision entry on many TV shows and were interviewed by the best selling magazine in Greece, Downtown. As they told  esctoday.com, they will continue their promo tour in other countries too but they haven't decided yet which countries to visit. So stay tuned for more updates about the Romanian promo tour.

You can visit the Romanian official charts website and vote for your favourites here.

Romania will appear in the first semifinal at position 17.

I really think Romania is the best song this year. I absolutely love it. Amazing voices so simple and charming. Well done to Romania....... Ireland will give you high votes for this.

Sorry to dissapoint you GeeOh but Romania's song for this year is very good and has all the chances to obtain a good place in Belgrade. Is true that there are beautiful songs this year but still Nico and Vlad's song has their fans.

Go Romania! We love you!

There are too many good songs this year... Armenia, Ukraine, Portugal, Serbia, Sweden, Hungary, Georgia, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Albania and of course Russia and Greece. Even the gimmish songs from Spain, Ireland or Bosnia will do better than Romania this year. Romania just can't face this tough competition with that old fashioned ballad. They tried to remember the "succes" of Romania 2002, Monica Anghel & Marcel Pavel? That's bad..Instead of progressing, we're regressing, going back in time with this song, kinda San Remo style...in the early '80's. Sorry. Maybe TVR will learn this lesson and next year won't let the old dinosaur-composers to manipulate the national selection. Good luck to everyone!

My dear Gee Oh,why are you so pessimistic? Romania will score very high this year! And Greece will vote for you as well!The most boring ballad is the polish one! I'll cross my fingers for Nico and Vlad!!!

Boring...stupid...overrated. #17 in the Semifinal, unfortunately will qualify, with some help from our beloved Spain, Moldova and Israel. Hope this song will end up in the Final on the #17 spot, or worse. no Top 10 for Romania this year, sorry...

@ lina esc
i don't know , and i don't care, how u react in chat. But whenever u call the people in this site "Tourkosporoi", or whenever u make any racist or insulting remark about someone's ethnicity, gender, country etc, as u 've done many times in the past, u 'll always find me against u.
Noone insulted u in this post, so your attack was not justified here. Nothing personal, i just hate racism and generalisations in all their forms. If someone had attacked your family in this post i wouldnt have intervened.

ps:mind u i 've been attacked multiple times with racist remarks, especially by the beloved swedish esc team...even by some greeks, but i always answer on spot or don't answer at all.

This song is just ok. I don't like it. There are many better balladas this year - Portugal, Albania, Israel, Hungary. If Romania had chosen Biondo for Belgrade it will be my top five. But with a very good draw thay will get to the final.

@lina esc
watch your dirty illiterate language....
and before trying to expess your racist trash against turks, try to learn proper greek language first....
No wonder illiteracy and racism always come together.

I just know that this Song and Angels Song for Morandi will be number 1 and 1 :)

The song "Pe-o margine de lume" is very good, sensibility, musicality.
It'a all about love, about a love story on the edge between reality and dream.
One can not know if the two lovers really meet or it's just a dream, a hope to meet the true love.
The voices are awesome, the best voices in the contest.
The ballad is in a pop opera style, in great fashion.

GO NICO AND VLAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THis song is horrible. And that with the fact Romania could have chosen Dr. Frankenstein makes it even worse.
