Bosnia and Hercegovina was represented at Eurovision 2005 by the group Feminnem and the song "Call Me".14 songs competed in the Bosnian final on March 6. The result was decided by 50% jury and 50% televoting. The 2003 Bosnian representative Mija Martina competed in the preselection. After a tie, it was decided that the winning song was "Zovi" performed by Feminnem, a female trio composed of contestants from the television show Hrvatski Idol, (the Croatian version of Pop Idol). In Kiev, the group competed with an English language version of the song entitled "Call Me". The song is written and composed by Andrej Babic.

The girl band ‘Feminnem’ was founded in 2004 following the success of the girls in the Croatian Idol competition. The members of the band are Ivana Maric, Neda Parmac, and Pamela Ramljak. Their first single ‘Volim Te, Mrzim Te’ (‘I Love You, I Hate You’) became a hit in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.

At Eurovision, Feminnem wore light pink, cream coloured skirts. They had some choreography during the chorus that was noticeable, but for most of the performance, the girls just stood in place and sang the song.
