One of the hopefuls keeping their fingers firmly crossed that they can impress the world's viewers and make it there is North Macedonian entry Andrea.

Born Andrea Koevska, the young singer's stage name is simply Andrea.
Her love of music emerged when she was introduced to it by her grandfather. When he later sadly passed away, Andrea struggled and turned to music to help her through the difficult time.
However, it was when her family moved from North Macedonia to America's New York that things really shifted, as Andrea, 22, found herself inspired by the city's music and culture.
Eventually, Andrea returned home to North Macedonia and she studied at Skopje’s Faculty of Music Arts.
In 2020, she released single 'I know', which was a collaboration between her and producer Aleksandar Masevski.
What is North Macedonia's Eurovision 2022 song called?
As the titles suggests, 'Circles' tells the story of someone going round and round in circles when they realise their relationship is at breaking point.
The electro-pop ballad with a catchy chorus was once again the result of a collaboration with Aleksandar Masevski.
