Source-derived summary

Romania was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "Liubi, Liubi, I Love You", written by Vlad Crețu, Kamara Ghedi, and Bogdan Tașcău, and performed by the group Todomondo. The Romanian participating broadcaster, Televiziunea Română (TVR), held the national final Selecția Națională 2007 in order to select its entry for the contest. Controversy surrounded the event, as TVR disqualified several entries over the course of the competition.

Prior to Eurovision, "Liubi, Liubi, I Love You" was promoted by a music video and a promotional tour in Belarus. Todomondo ultimately achieved 13th place in the contest's Grand Final on 12 May 2007, scoring 84 points. Their performance saw the use of pyrotechnics.
