Slovenia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012

Slovenia was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 with the song "Verjamem" written by Vladimir Graić, Hari Mata Hari, and Igor Pirkovič, and performed by Eva Boto. The Slovene participating broadcaster, Radiotelevizija Slovenija (RTVSLO), organised the national final Misija EMA 2012 in order to select its entry for the contest. 32 performers competed in the first stage of the national final, Misija Evrovizija, from which two artists qualified to compete in Misija EMA 2012 following a five-month-long competition. In Misija EMA 2012, the winner was selected over two rounds of voting. In the first round, each artist performed three songs and one song were selected for each performer following the combination of votes from a four-member jury panel and a public televote. In the second round, "Verjamem" performed by Eva Boto was selected as the winner entirely by a public televote. Songwriter Hari Mata Hari represented Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2006 with the song "Lejla" where he placed third in the grand final of the competition.

Slovenia was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 24 May 2012. Performing during the show in position 9, "Verjamem" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Slovenia placed seventeenth out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 31 points.
