GreenJolly (Ukrainian: Ґринджоли, Gryndzholy) was a Ukrainian hip hop duo. They represented Ukraine at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Razom nas bahato", which became an unofficial anthem of the Ukrainian Orange Revolution.[1]

History

[edit]

GreenJolly consisted of Roman Kalyn and Roman Kostyuk, who originate from the Ivano-Frankivsk region of Western Ukraine.[2]

After receiving a wild card to the final of the Ukrainian Eurovision pre-selection, Evrobachennya 2005 – Natsionalyni vidbir, the duo was chosen to represent their country at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest in Kyiv, with the song "Razom nas bahoto".[3] In conjunction with various Ukrainian radio stations, the band wrote the song to support protests against electoral fraud that took place during the 2004 Ukrainian presidential election.[2] However, the track had to be reworked in order to comply with contest regulations, and the European Broadcasting Union.[4][5] In the final, the duo finished 19th with 30 points, tied with Sweden.[6]

Following their Eurovision appearance, the group disbanded.[7]
