Pesma za Evroviziju 22: Sara Jo and Marko Nikolic are your favourites to qualify from semi-final two

Serbia’s brand new national selection Pesma za Evroviziju 22 continues on Friday evening with semi-final two. There are 18 acts in the mix, but only nine will qualify for the grand final.

Ahead of the show, we asked you to vote for your favourites from semi-final two.

We received 1,125 votes in total. After counting and verifying them, it’s now time to reveal the results.

Sara Jo is a favourite in Pesma za Evroviziju 22 semi-final two

Coming out on top of this Pesma za Evroviziju 22 semi-final two poll is Sara Jo. Her self-titled song “Muskarcina” (“Macho man”) earned 331 votes, which is 29.42% of the total number cast.

The Serbian singer is a familiar face to Eurovision fans. She previously represented Serbia at the song contest in 2013. Back then she performed as part of girl group Moje 3, but they failed to qualify to the final. So Sara will be hoping to return to Eurovision and prove just what she’s capable of.

Sara Jo had a commanding lead in this poll. But the other main favourite from semi-final two is Marko Nikolić. He brings us a more classical take on Serbian music with the Balkan ballad “Dođi da te volim” (“Come let me love you”). Marko picked up 114 votes (10.13% of the total).

Third place goes to Zoe Kida. Meanwhile, in fourth place we find Tijana Dapčević – North Macedonia’s Eurovision 2014 representative.

If the results were up to y’all, the other five acts we would see again in the grand final would be: Naiva, Gramophonedzie, Zejna Murkić, Vasco and Julijana Vincan.

We only have a few hours to wait before we see if your wishes come true and if Sara Jo rises to the top of Pesma za Evroviziju 22 semi-final two.
