Moldova in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Moldova’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 was due to be selected in a national final that took place on 25 February organised by national broadcaster Teleradio-Moldova (TRM). The result was a three-way tie, and the rules stated that should this happen, the youngest jury member would choose the winner, which they refused to do. A new national final took place on 15 March, with brand new songs competing. In this new final, Arsenium & Natalia Gordienko feat. Connect-R singing Loca were successfully chosen to represent Moldova in Athens. The song is written and composed by Arsenium.
Arsenie Todiras (Arsenium) was born on 22 July 1983 in Chişinău, Moldova and is a singer who was part of the boyband O-Zone. When he was 17, the famous opera singer Larisa Shulga taught him singing lessons, which led him to Dan Balan who invited him to become a new member of “O-Zone”. The band had many hits and became successful domestically and internationally. After the band broke up Arsenie started his solo career and his first single Love Me, Love Me was released in 2005. Popular Romanian rapper Connect-R and the former lead singer of the Moldovan group Millennium, Natalia Gordienko (born 11 December 1987), will join Arsenium to perform the song.
