We’re now at week 3 of Romania’s Eurovision selection, Selecția Națională, where another 12 participants performed their potential Eurovision entries in the hopes of being one of only three qualifiers.
This week’s show was held in Craiova, Romania’s 6th largest city. As in previous weeks, the show features 12 entries, and the decision of who to send into the final is completely up to the five jury members, Liliana Ştefan, Viorel Gavrilă, Ilinca Băcilă, Nicu Patoi and Marian Ionescu.
Here are the acts from the third semi-final:
Eliza Chifu – So Good Without You

VYROS – La La La
Zavera – Come Back To Me
Elena Hasna – Revival
Diana Brătan – Paint it Rainbow
Tavi Clonda – King
Erminio Sinni & Tiziana Camelin – All the Love Away
