Elitsa and Stoyan (Bulgarian: Елица и Стоян) are a Bulgarian music duo consisting of singers Elitsa Todorova and Stoyan Yankoulov [bg]. In 2007, they were the entry for Bulgaria at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007, finishing in fifth place with the song "Water". It remained the highest placement for Bulgaria in the contest until the Eurovision Song Contest 2016.[1] In March 2013, the duo were selected to represent Bulgaria for a second time at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 with the song "Samo shampioni",[2] but failed to qualify for the final.
