Bratislava, Slovakia -

The sixth and last quarter-final of the Slovak national selection for the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest took place in the STV studios in Bratislava tonight, with four more entries qualifying for the semi-final stage.

A total of six quarter-finals, two semi-finals and one big final will take place as a part of the Slovak national selection for the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest over the next few weeks. Ten songs were performed in tonight's last quarter final, four out of which qualified for the semi-finals. This is the list of participants of tonight's round (qualifiers in bold):

  • Ivana Poláčková - So Mnou Všetko Smieš (3,7 %)
  • Maroš Bango - Ty Tu Ticho Spíš (14,8 %)
  • Stopa - Nightsong (8,5 %)
  • Družina - Koniec Sveta (14,7 %)
  • Soňa - Skús Ma Viesť (17,7 %)
  • Marcel & Tomáš Palonder feat. Street Dance Academy – Slová Slov (3,4 %)
  • Otto Weiter & Makar Čudra - Vrtká (2,3 %)
  • Miro Jaroš - Bez Siedmeho Neba (16,3 %)
  • Happyband - Mafiánska (2,9 %)
  • Aya - Do Neba Volám (15,7 %)

Martin "Pyco" Rausch was the presenter of tonight's show, with Martin Kontur supporting him with interviews from the "green room". The outcome of the quarter final was wholly decided by SMS voting. With all quarter-finals being concluded by now, the next stage of the Slovak national selection will start next Sunday, on the 14th of February, with the first out of two semi-finals.

Six really amazing quarter-finals, particularly the last one. Not always the strongest voices, but I like the composers' work: very diverse, prolific and fertile pop music; I do appreciate many of them. You did a great job, Slovakia. I think, you're going to become one of my favourite Eurovision countries. No matter what you'll choose for Oslo, I'm sure it will come out as a decent song.

So, let us count, how many people had Miro Jaros in the show: 2 translators / background singers, 1 himself, 5 musicians, 8 sitting around background singers, that is 16 people, only 10 more, than officialy allowed - quote - "maximum of six performers have been permitted on the stage"

How about that?
