Is It Right? Or is it wrong?
You're visiting "Marija Magdalena". Could you be looking for "Maria Magdalena"? |
Marija Magdalena was the Croatian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1999 in Jerusalem performed by Doris Dragović. It was her second attempt at the contest, having previously represented the former Yugoslavia in 1986.
On the night of the Contest, it performed fourth following Spain and preceding the United Kingdom. At the close of voting, it finished in 4th place with 118 points. It lost a third of its total points towards Croatia's five-year total due to electronic vocals in the backing track, which is a violation of the contest's rules as all vocals (lead and backing) must be sung live on stage.

Jer tvoja ljubav me razapela
Odriješila me je mojih grijeha
Svjedok mi Bog, srca mi mog
Ova žena zna, da ti pripada sva
Marija Magdalena, Marija Magdalena
Ah... Marija Magdalena
Ah...
Vodila me noć svud po svijetu
I rekla sam joj: "Stoj!" ah... "dalje neću"
Svjedok mi Bog, srca mi mog
Ova žena zna, da ti pripada sva
Marija Magdalena, Marija Magdalena
Ah... Marija Magdalena
Ah...
Svjedok mi Bog, srca mi mog
Ova žena zna, da ti pripada sva
Marija Magdalena, Marija Magdalena
Ah... Marija Magdalena
Ah...
For your love got me crucified
And released me of all my sins
As God is my witness, I swear by my heart
That this woman knows, she belongs to you entirely
Mary Magdalene, Mary Magdalene
Ah... Mary Magdalene
Ah...
The night guided me around the world
I told her: "Stop!" ah... "I won't go any further"
As God is my witness, I swear by my heart
That this woman knows, she belongs to you entirely
Mary Magdalene, Mary Magdalene
Ah... Mary Magdalene
Ah...
As God is my witness, I swear by my heart
That this woman knows, she belongs to you entirely
Mary Magdalene, Mary Magdalene
Ah... Mary Magdalene
Ah...
