announced that Rambo Amadeus would represent Montenegro in Baku. In regards to the selected artist, RTCG general director Rade Vojvodić stated: "He will be a good representative representing our country and the region. He's not the typical musician. There is one important fact that separates him from other musicians and makes him unique and distinguished. He is very popular throughout the former Yugoslavian countries, and he is an UNICEF ambassador.

The Montenegrin song, "Euro Neuro", was presented during a television special on 15 March 2012, which was held at the RTCG studios in Podgorica and hosted by Sabrija Vulić.
