National final

The Yugoslavian national final to select their entry, Jugovizija 1987, was held on 7 March at Sava Centre in Belgrade, and was hosted by Dubravka Miloševic.

Song from Yugoslav finals for the Eurovision Song Contest 1987, held on March 7th, at Sava Centar, Belgrade. In 1987 the new controversial propositions were introduced about the selection of the songs and voting, that stayed in power until the last all-Yugoslav pre-selection in 1991. All TV studios were nominating 2 songs that were guaranteed participants (which made the number 16) and a few more from which another 8 were selected based on the quality. Some of the studios didn't have any extra songs chosen, and TV Zagreb had 4 plus, which made it 6 in total. (2 of them were on the top of scoreboard, 2 on the bottom). This year had a record of 24 songs competing (in the period 1981-1991). The new voting system allowed the TV studio's jury to be able to vote for their own entries, most of them used the most this opportunity, in the next 4 years as well. Every jury member (3 from ever TV studio - 24 in total) could vote only for 5 songs which marginalized many of the songs, and resulted in 5 songs with 0 points.

The winning entry was "Ja sam za ples," performed by Novi Fosili, composed by Rajko Dujmić and written by Stevo Cvikić.
