Before Eurovision

Jugovizija 1992

RTV Belgrade staged the national final on 28 March 1992 at its television studios in Belgrade.[1] The show was hosted by Dragana Katić, Maja Milatović, Milica Gacin, and Radoš Bajić.[2] [[Yugoslav Radio Television|Jugoslavenska radiotelevizija]]|i=no (JRT), invited all its affiliates to participate in the national final; however, the Slovenian and Croatian broadcasters didn't send any entries as the independence of their republics had widespread recognition by January 1992. There were also no Albanian candidates from the Kosovar broadcaster due to rising tensions in Kosovo between Albanians and Serbs.[3]

In addition, RTV Skopje withdrew a few days before the competition, after having selected its entries. Originally, its three songs were supposed to be performed as songs number 7, 9, and 19: "Slatka tajna" by Tanja, Lidija & Tanja (7); "Lady" by Milk & Company (9); and "Parižanka" by Dragan Karanfilovski (19).

There were 20 songs in the final from the five remaining subnational public broadcasters: RTV Belgrade, RTV Montenegro, RTV Prishtina, RTV Novi Sad, and RTV Sarajevo. RTV Sarajevo still participated, although Bosnia and Herzegovina had already declared independence prior to the national final.[4] The winning song was chosen by an expert jury, which included Lola Novaković, who represented . The voting system remained the same as in previous years: each of the jurors gave points to their favorite songs according to a system with the ascending format of going from 1-3, 5 and finally 7 points. The winner was the Serbian singer with the song "Serbian: Ljubim te pesmama|i=no", composed by Radivoje Radivojević and written by Gale Janković.[5]
