Jugovizija 1989
[edit]The Yugoslav national final to select their entry, Jugovizija 1989, was held on 4 March 1989 at the Grand Hall of the Serbian National Theatre in Novi Sad,[1] and was hosted by Dina Čolić and Boško Negovanović.
The winning song was chosen, from a selection of 16 songs, by the votes of 8 regional juries. Each JRT affiliate had to choose one song to be entered directly into the competition, and most submitted a few more songs from which the remaining eight songs were chosen.
