From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Željko Joksimović (Serbian: Жељко ЈокÑимовић) (born 20 April 1972) is one of the most popular singers of Serbia and Montenegro, but is also well-known in Croatia, Bosnia and nearby countries. In the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 he represented Serbia and Montenegro with the song Lane Moje, which finished second behind Ukrainian singer Ruslana.
In 2005, he once again composed a song that entered the national pre-selection for Eurovision, but this time he left Jutro (Morning) to be performed by Jelena Tomasevic. The song seemed well-placed to progress to the contest in Kyiv after it emerged as the highest-scoring qualifier from the Serbian pre-selection, but ultimately missed out in controversial fashion at the overall Serbia and Montenegro final, when all four Montenegrin jurors pointedly overlooked it in distributing their marks. This instead left the way clear for the band No Name, a qualifier from Montenegro's pre-selection.
