2009 ESC

In 2009 “Stephane & 3G” with the play on words song Put In Disco were selected to represent the Georgian entry to the ESC through Georgia’s national competition. The song caused much controversy as it was perceived to contain political references to former Russian President and current PM Vladimir Putin in the lyrics. EBU has offered GPB 1st Channel to re-write the lyrics of the entry song or select another song for the contest. Georgia announced its decision to withdrawal from ESC 2009
