Sopho Khalvashi performing Visionary Dream

Georgia made its debut at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007. The Georgian broadcaster announced that the debut entry will be performed by the internally selected singer, Sopho Khalvashi. This decision was made based on a poll which Sopho Khalvashi won with over 60% of the votes. Sopho Khalvashi sang five songs during the national final on 3 March 2007, where televoting and SMS voting on the part of the Georgian audience selected "My Story" for her to sing in Helsinki. The song was written by Beqa Jafaridze and Bibi Kvachadze.

At Eurovision, Sopho Khalvashi dropped her last name for the performance, the song being performed under the title "Visionary Dream". Georgia qualified from the semi-final on May 10, after Iceland and before Montenegro, performing sixth. Georgia's entry finished twelfth in the final contest.
