Karolina Gočeva
Karolina Gočeva (stage name also Karolina ; Macedonian Каролина Гочева , born April 28, 1980 in Bitola , Yugoslavia ) is a North Macedonian pop singer who has become known beyond the borders of North Macedonia through two participations in the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC).
Life
Gočeva's career began at the age of eleven when she performed at Macedonian music festivals. With appearances at the Sunčane Skale Music Festival , she first achieved fame in the other successor states of the former Yugoslavia . For the first time she should appear in 1995 with the song Me sakas for Macedonia. Macedonian television later withdrew its participation for financial reasons, and Gočeva had not yet reached the minimum age of 16 years. In 2002 she was sent for the first time as the Macedonian representative to the Eurovision Song Contest , where she took 19th place with 25 points with the ethnopopsong Од Нас Зависи ( Od nas zavisi - "It depends on us"). In her second appearance in 2007 her contribution Мојот свет ( Mojot svet - "My World") achieved 14th place with 73 points. Previously, she had achieved the final place in the semifinals, as she was able to qualify with 97 points as ninth out of 28 participants in the top ten. Her song was written in 7/8 time.
