Czech Republic in the Eurovision Song Contest 2009
The song was performed by the group Gipsy.cz, which was internally selected by Czech Television to represent the nation at the 2009 contest in Moscow, Russia.[6] Two songs written by Gipsy.cz member Radoslav Banga, titled "Aven Romale" and "Do You Wanna", were submitted by the group and announced during a press conference that took place on 16 February 2009 at the Hybernia Palace in Prague.[11] The group also performed during the ČT Anděl Music Awards on 21 March, which was held at the Top Hotel in Prague and broadcast on ČT1.[10][12] According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Four" (France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top nine songs from each semi-final as determined by televoting progress to the final, and a tenth was determined by back-up juries.The LED screens displayed comic strip pictures depicting "Super Gipsy" with a Parental Advisory label, a dustbin and a barcode shown in the background.[16][17] At the end of the show, Czech Republic was not announced among the top 10 entries in the first semi-final and therefore failed to qualify to compete in the final.This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.
