Moldova participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 with the song "O mie" written by Iuliana Scutari and Pasha Parfeny. The song was performed by Aliona Moon. Songwriter Pavel Parfeni represented Moldova in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 with the song "Lăutar" where he placed eleventh in the grand final of the competition. The Moldovan broadcaster TeleRadio-Moldova (TRM) organised the national final O melodie pentru Europa 2013 in order to select the Moldovan entry for the 2013 contest in Malmö, Sweden. 49 artists and 126 songs competed to represent Moldova in Malmö, with 24 artists and songs being shortlisted to participate in the televised national final. After two semi-finals and a final which took place in March 2013, "A Million" performed by Aliona Moon emerged as the winner after gaining the most points following the combination of votes from a jury panel and a public televote. The song was later translated from English to Romanian for the Eurovision Song Contest and was titled "O mie". This was the first time that the Moldovan song was performed entirely in the Romanian language at the Eurovision Song Contest.
Moldova was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 14 May 2013. Performing during the show in position 12, "O mie" was announced among the top 10 entries of the first semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 18 May. It was later revealed that Moldova placed fourth out of the 16 participating countries in the semi-final with 95 points. In the final, Moldova performed in position 3 and placed eleventh out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 71 points.
