Slovenia at Eurovision 2025
“How Much Time Do We Have Left” is the title of the song that will be performed by singer Klemen, who will represent Slovenia as song number 3 in the first semi-final of Eurovision 2025, taking place on May 13th in Basel, Switzerland. Klemen‘s song was written by the singer himself along with Maja Slatinšek, who previously participated in the Slovenian national selection in 2006, and Ryan Small, who is new to the Eurovision world. The song is performed in English.
The song deals with coping with illness and loss from an intimate, family-centered perspective. It highlights the contrast between a bright and routine external world and the deep inner pain felt by two parents after receiving troubling news about the health condition of one of them – all while their child continues to smile innocently.
Currently, Slovenia is ranked 28th in the betting odds ahead of Eurovision 2025.
