Greece participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "Yassou Maria", written by Alex Papaconstantinou, Marcus Englöf and Markus Sepehrmanesh. The song was performed by Sarbel. To select their entry for the 2007 contest, which took place in Helsinki, Finland, Greek national television broadcaster Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT) organised the national final Eurovision 2007 which took place on 28 February 2007. The event saw three acts—Sarbel, Tamta and Christos Dantis—compete to be the Greek representative.
Following the selection of "Yassou Maria", a music video for the song was released and Sarbel embarked on an international promotional tour for the entry to Russia, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Sweden and Romania. As Greece had placed highly at the previous year's contest, it automatically qualified for the final at this year's contest. Greece appeared tenth out of the 24 countries competing in the final and placed seventh with 139 points.
