Before Junior Eurovision

Internal selection

In May 2005, the EBU along with VRT and RTBF, announced that Russia and Russian broadcaster Telekanal Rossiya would debut at the contest in Hasselt. A professional jury internally selected fifteen artists and selected the winner to represent Russia in the contest. The reason behind the internal selection was because the invitation to participate was sent very late in the year, and they couldn't afford to organise a televised national final.

On 10 November 2005, a press-conference devoted to the participation in the contest was held, revealing that Vladislav Krutskikh and "Street Magic" was selected to represent Russia in the 2005 contest with the song "Doroga k solntsu". The song was written by Kim Breitburg, Artyom Kavaleryan and Vlad Krutskikh himself, and was premiered on the Telekanal Rossiya channel that day (most likely to be during a broadcast of Spokoynoy nochi, malyshi!).
