"Zauvijek moja" (2005) ► |
"Lane moje" (Serbian Cyrillic: Лане моје, pronounced [lânɛ mɔ̌jɛ], English translation: "My sweetheart") is the name of the song by Serbian singer, composer, musician Željko Joksimović. It was an award-winning song from the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 by Zeljko Joksimovic and Ad Hoc Orchestra.
After qualifying from the semi-final the song endured a close battle all night with Ukrainian singer Ruslana's energetic song Wild Dances. The song ended up coming second, despite having won in the semi-final, and was inspired by ethno elements and traditional Serbian music style making it a Balkan Ballad. Scoring 263 points, it was the first non-winning song in the contest, along with Greece's entry Shake it, to score over 200 points.
