Regina has made seven appearances in the Slovenian Eurovision Song Contest selection, EMA, as follows:[1]
- 1993: "Naj ljubezen združi vse ljudi" - 4th
- 1996: "Dan najlepših sanj" - 1st
- 1998: "Glas gora" - 3rd
- 2001: "Zaljubljena v maj" - 10th
- 2002: "Ljubezen daje moč" - Semi-final
- 2004: "Plave očij" - 12th
- 2005: "Proti vetru" - 9th
The success of "Dan najlepših sanj" in 1996 earned Regina the right to represent Slovenia in the 41st Eurovision Song Contest. The song survived the audio-only pre-qualifying round held in March that year, but at the contest itself, held in Oslo on 18 May, could only manage to place 21st of the 23 entries.[2]
Regina has released seven albums and currently combines her singing and voiceover career with audio production work.
