Controversies

In 2005, as complete outsiders but with a song featuring a strong national identity, they received most of the votes from the jury appointed by RTCG, causing a stir among the Serbian and Montenegrin followers of the Eurovision Song Contest.
In March 2006, they participated in Montevizija 2006, the Montenegrin semi-final, and finished 2nd, going on to win the final Europjesma with "Moja ljubavi". The jury appointed by RTCG did not award any points to the Serbian-based group Flamingosi, who were declared winners by some even before the competition, while others favored No Name. The new arrangement of the song and No Name's victory came just in time for the campaign for Montenegrin independence, which started that year. Consequently, the Serbian TV station decided to pull out, preventing No Name from representing the country in Athens.
