16 - 8 pts in semi 1

Hannah (Hannah Mancini) sang for Slovenia in Malmö. The singer and song were selected internally this time.
The song,  premiered on Valentines day, is titled Straight Into Love.

The song is written by Gregor Zemljič, Erik Margan, Matija Rodić and Marko Primožak.

A slightly altered version was made for Eurovision.

An early 1-track promo (cd-r) has been issued, but no other cd was made for the contest. Instead a flyer with download links was given to the press in Malmö.
I don't know if the cd-r includes the first or second version of Straight Into Love.
Beware: Fakes are being offered on e-bay

Lyrics for a french version have been published, but I don't think it has been recorded.
