Just a few minutes ago, the 12 candidate songs of EMA 2025 were announced, and they were presented through a televised show at the studios of the country’s national broadcaster, RTVSLO.
As you were first informed via OGAE Greece, on December 13th, the organizers revealed the 12 candidate artists as well as the titles of their entries. Today, it is time to listen to their music.
Thus, in a special show entitled Ema pred EMO, all the artists presented, in short clips, their songs to the public. The show was hosted by Bernarda Žarn and Jože Robežnik, while in the studio there were also previous representatives of the country, who gave their opinion on each of the 12 competing entries. For example, Maja Keuc, Lea Sirk, Nuša Derenda, Omar Naber and Eva Boto were there.

WHAT COMES NEXT
EMA 2025 is scheduled to take place on Saturday, February 1, 2025. The final result will be determined through two rounds of voting.
In the first round, 5 five-member panels will award points using the Eurovision system (1-8, 10 and 12 points). The five panels are as follows:
- Music Jury (singers, musicians, producers, songwriters, etc.)
- Television Jury (editors, presenters, directors, choreographers, etc.)
- Radio Jury (radio editors, journalists, presenters, etc.)
- OGAE Slovenia Jury
- International Eurovision Influencers Jury (bloggers, vloggers, online journalists, etc.)
After the jury vote, the two songs with the highest scores will advance to the superfinal, during which the winner will be selected, exclusively through the vote of the Slovenian public.
Finally, as has already been announced, the big night will be hosted by last year’s country representative, Raiven , along with singer Štras.
