It has become clear who will announce on the air for this year’s Eurovision final how Lithuanians distributed their votes to the finalists.

Exactly 15 years ago, the band LT United, which was assembled especially for the competition by Andrius Mamontovas, ranked highest in Lithuania at the Eurovision Song Contest. Six members of the group – Andrius Mamontovas, Marijonas Mikutavičius, Viktoras Diawara-Vee, Saulius Urbonavičius-Samas, Arnoldas Lukošius and Eimantas Belickas – took sixth place with the song “We Are The Winners,” according to the press release.

“It was one of the most memorable adventures in life that I had to live with very good company and under such unexpected circumstances. It is possible to evaluate “Eurovision” and its content in every way, but it is a very interesting and valuable experience, “says performer and composer Andrius Mamontovas.

In the first semi-finals of the Eurovision Song Contest tonight at 10 pm The Roop will fight for a place in the grand final: Lithuanian representatives will be the first to appear in the semi-finals.

“This year, The Roop recorded a great piece of pop music. I think Vaidotas and his team have put a lot of work and heart into it and they are worth more than representing our country. I am sure they have all the real opportunities to improve the achievements from Lithuania at Eurovision.

I wish you victory in every possible sense of the word. I want to concentrate and not be distracted, to fulfill all my ideas as well as possible. I wish to bring our long-awaited victory, “wished A. Mamontov.

Semifinals of the competition, May 18. and on May 20, and the final, on May 22, will be available on LRT TELEVISION, LRT RADIO and the LRT.lt portal. The broadcasts, which will be commented this year by Ramūnas Zilnys directly from Rotterdam, will be visible to viewers on the LRT.lt portal in Lithuania and abroad.
