The entries were judged on music, lyrics, voice & interpretation, song production & arrangement and the 'HIT' factor. Judges were focused on finding the 15 entries which have the potential of becoming Malta's next "Hit Songs" for the year 2010.
The final night of the Malta Hit Song Contest 2010 will take place on April 30, 2010.
