Kënga Magjike 2007 Explained
Kënga Magjike 2007, was the ninth edition of the annual Albanian song competition, first held in 1999. It took place in the Palace of Congresses in Tirana, Albania. There were two semifinals (23 and 24 November 2007) and a final (25 November 2007). Fifty-four songs were heard in advance by the public at home, which narrowed them down to 40 songs by televoting. These songs competed in the semi-finals but only eighteen made it to the final. Ten songs were voted into the finals by the singers and eight songs by the jury. In the end, Aurela Gaçe won the first prize. Florjan Mumajesi and Soni Malaj were the runners-up. The winner was determined by the singers who voted for each other.
