Marija Magdalena

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Marija Magdalena" (English translation: "Mary Magdalene") was the Croatian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1999, performed in Croatian by Doris.

The song was performed fourth on the night (following Spain's Lydia with "No Quiero Escuchar" and preceding the United Kingdom's Precious with "Say It Again"). At the close of voting, it had received 118 points, placing 4th in a field of 23.

The song is a love ballad, with Doris singing that she "belongs to you" and swearing this in the names both of God and the tititular biblical character.

It was succeeded as Croatian representative at the 2000 Contest by Goran Karan with "Kad zaspu anđeli".
