Andorra was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "Salvem el món" written and performed by young Andorran punk-rock band Anonymous, consisting of band members: Guillem Gallego, Niki Francesca, and Alejandro Martínez. The Andorran participating broadcaster, Ràdio i Televisió d'Andorra (RTVA), internally selected its entry for the contest in a process called Projecte Eurovisió. The internal selection ended with a total of 82 songs having been submitted to RTVA. These entries were whittled down by the broadcaster to determine the fourth Andorran representatives. Anonymous were announced on 15 January 2007, while the song was presented in a special gala show on 1 March 2007.
As Andorra failed to qualify for the 2006 final, the country was forced to compete in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 10 May 2007. Performing during the show in position 21, "Salvem el món" was not announced among the 10 qualifying entries of the semi-final, despite being predicted to qualify with the bookmakers and being a consistent fan favourite. They therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Andorra placed twelfth out of the 28 participating countries in the semi-final with 80 points, just 11 points away from qualifying. This remains Andorra's best result to date.
