The song
Just get out of my life is an up-tempo disco schlager song. Through the lyrics, a lover is told to leave although the singer herself seems not to be able to leave that person having contradicting feelings:
It's too dangerous when we touch
And I love you much too much
Get out of my life babe
Just get out of my out of my out of my head
Just get out of my out of my out of my bed
It's beyond belief but true
I became a slave to you
The singer
Andrea Demirović became famous when she competed in the 2002 edition of the annual Montenegrin music festival Sunčane Skale. She would take part in a series of different music festivals over the following years. In 2005, she entered Montevizija, the Montenegrin semi final of Serbia & Montenegro's national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest and finished fifth with Šta ce mi dani thus qualifying for the final. In the final, the song reached fifth place again.
In 2006, her first Album Andrea was released. Besides an own composition, most of the songs on the CD were written by Vesna Pisarovic, who had represented Croatia in the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest and had also written the entry for Bosnia & Herzegovina in the 2004 contest. In 2008, Andrea tried to represent Montenegro in the Eurovision Song Contest taking part in the artist selection. She finished second behind Stefan Felipovic performing the Dolly Parton/Whitney Houston classic I will always love you.
In 2009, she was chosen internally to represent Montenegro in Moscow with the song Just get out of my life. She is the first female soloist to take part for the country. Later that year, she will release her second album and its first single is The queen of the night, an English version of the song La reina de la noche from the 2007 Spanish national final. Currently, Andrea is still a student at the music academy in Cetinje.
The national selection
The Montenegrin entry was selected internally for the second year in a row, but also the singer was selected by the broadcaster this time. The chosen entry was presented on the internet and made available for free download. The songwriters are all from outside the country, namely Ralph Siegel and Bernd Meinunger (who keep the record in having written the most Eurovision Song Contest entries) from Germany and José Rodriguez from Spain.
Montenegro in the Eurovision Song Contest
Montenegro entered the Eurovision Song Contest as an independent country in 2007. Both entries so far did not manage to reach the final. Montegrin entries under the flags of Yugoslavia and Serbia & Montenegro took part in the years 1983, 1984 and 2005. In 1983, Danijel reached fourth place, one of Yugoslavia's best placings.
Crnoj Gori i Andrei želimo svu sreću i dobar rezultat u Moskvi!

This one was in my top10 at the time around 15-18 songs were chosen 
The song is so far best Montenegrin entry in ESC (as it was difficult to achieve after Tragic boring and regular boring one).
Maybe the song has its catch (probably hidden in the nowhere spaces I cannot see), but even if it would be a hit, the greatest weakness of the song still remains a singer actually!
Repetitive melody and singer without any charisma singing in spot no.1 at the night is not a recipe for a success if you ask me.
Layla..
Yes u can expect somthin very shiny! hehe i already know some ideas of Gordon..he told somethin about it in their tv serie ''On the way to Moscow''. they are profesional and very nice guys that make alot of fun.
@FuGeE Volkova!
They are very likable indeed. I think they will be better on stage. They seemed sympathic in the Dutch NF. Their clothes are so funny, lol. I am expecting VERY shiny suits again.
talk about polish hahahhaha funny..
wait are u confusing Serbs with the Polish
Layla..
Im sure u will enjoy their performance in Moscow..they will do everythin to entertain u and make u smile!! i just know its gonna be crazy!!!!! i know the video sux..
Layla Al-Magnuna
LOL ... female +50 will for sure
oh btw i love ur burek..and jelen!!
hahah i liked beograd very much. well nemke knows
@FuGeE Volkova!
I would have liked De Toppers more if they hadn't used political propaganda in their video and gotten away with it. The song's alright. Maybe the older (female) viewers will appreciate it more, lol.
sirusho screamed..she cant sing. and i think she just came out of a cave before she went on stage
hehehe LOL true true !!!
@ Fugee
Have u actually beent o Serbia so as to judge us? 
And tell us then why dont u like us that much?
And what do u think of the shoe
FuGeE and Night Elf
Actualy, I think Hind was better live than Sirusho in first semi, but "Qele qele" is COOOL song!
thats becuz there live too many serbs here..the same with turks
ooooooh thats why we are sending cipela to the NL so that u see us and like us 
There is more to serbs that those immigrants living there
FuGeE
Really? Then u must like Serbian songs since u give them pts every year
yes easteren europe...UKraine Poland Russia etc.
sorry not Serbia..we dont like serbs that much
@T K
Your picture is still not funny. 
And all this plagiarism attacks on this song are sooooooo lame. Natalia's song there sounds nothing like Andrea's. And it is only the first 2 seconds of Hot stuff that sounds similar and then the melody changes. Get over it!
we send the toppers..to make eurovision more alive in my country!!!! and its working already!
FuGeE
Very popular in Eastern Europe ???
Where the hell am I living
@Marko
How on earth did Hind belong in the final? her song was so erk! There were far better songs that passed or should have passed!
Edsilia was ok, but nothing better...
So i am sorry, but this the year when the Netherlands have a good enough song, even tough i think they could have done better, and have a chance for a final..!
Marko
I liked Hind in Belgrade... I hoped she will qualify... On the other hand Edsila had harder job in Helsinki since she compete with 27 counties in semi so I didn't hope much...
But I can possible imagine who will vote for Toppers... Since jury won't influence on semis (except for 1 country only) I don't understand why did Netherlands send them.
Hind belonged in the final..but her performance sucked..i mean her outfit and the whole thing. no doubt about her voice..it was the best of the whole evening!!!!!
Oh and btw the song of the toppers is remixed by John Marks and hes very popular in eastern europe..so u will see the toppers in the final!!!!! Oki maybe Edsilia should have been in the final..but for real..she only makes a song once in 5 years.
Night Elf
Last year Hind was OK, she deserved final like Edsilia in 2007!
But I don't know what NED expected with Treble in 2006 and this year with De Toppers, I don't know who will vote for it really!
I hope we won't be surprised like last year FuGeE 
Maybe if they are pushed with juries... Otherwise
But who knows what next ESC is bringing us hehe
