Natalia Barbu will represent Moldova at the Eurovision Song Contest, held in Helsinki, Finland in 2007. According to www.ecstoday.com Zdob si Zdub, the runner-up in the internal selection for the Moldovan Eurovision Song Contest participant has obviously violated the rules. “Space Cowboys” was already performed in August 2006 during the Rosklide festival as “Hora Cosmica”.According to the European Broadcasting Union, entries for the Eurovision Song Contest are not allowed to have been released or performed publicly before 1st October 2006. By the decision of the jury from Chisinau, Natalia Barbu will represent Moldova in Helsinki with the song “Fight”. Due to a 20th position in 2006, achieved by Arsenium featuring Natalia Gordienko and Connect-R, she will have to enter the semi final. 34 songs were in the running, of which 3 contesters were selected for participation in the final part: Zdob si Zdub, Natalia Barbu and Olia Tira. This year no public voting was organized and the contesters were selected by an unknown jury.
