| - Salvem el món was the Andorran entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 in Helsinki performed by the group Anonymous. This was the first Andorran entry not to feature monolingual Catalan lyrics and not to be performed by a female soloist, with all the members of the band being male. As Andorra had not previously qualified for the final, the song was performed in the semi-final. At the close of voting, it had received 80 points, placing 12th in the 28-strong field and thus missing out on qualifying for the final by two places. This was, however, Andorra's best result.

| - Salvem el món was the Andorran entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 in Helsinki performed by the group Anonymous. This was the first Andorran entry not to feature monolingual Catalan lyrics and not to be performed by a female soloist, with all the members of the band being male. The song is a pop punk number, the first such song ever to be performed at the Contest. Lead singer "N!ki" sings about his disbelief at the state of the world, remarking that "The world is in danger and you don't do anything". He sings that this is because everyone is only interested in their own lives, and is unwilling to do anything for the greater good. Thus, he proposes that everyone unite and think about things they can do to improve the world. The chorus is delivered in English, with the band singing that humanity as a whole has treated the world badly, having in fact "turned [it] upside down". The theme of a call to action was made more explicit in the performance, with Niki calling out "Thank you! We can still save the world!" after the song was finished. As Andorra had not previously qualified for the final, the song was performed in the semi-final. At the close of voting, it had received 80 points, placing 12th in the 28-strong field and thus missing out on qualifying for the final by two places. This was, however, Andorra's best result.
