Slovakia - Don't Close Your Eyes - Max Jason Mai

18 - 22 pts in semi 2

After the premature annoucement of Miro Šmajda as the Slovakian entrant early the decision was finally made.
It's still Miro Šmajda for Eurovision but under a new name Max Jason Mai. The song selected is Don't Close Your Eyes, a song the artist write himself.
Listen to the song at Max' Youtube
