Lithuania’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 was chosen in a final held by Lithuanian broadcaster LRT, on March 4. After a number of newcomer qualifying heats and three semi-finals, Lithuania chose the band project LT United, who sang We Are the Winners at the contest. The band hoped that European sense of humour would assist their entry to success, though the crowd in Athens gave them a mixed reaction. The novelty song includes repetition of the song's title, which declares Lithuania as the winner of Eurovision 2006. The song is written and composed by Andrius Mamontovas and Saulius Urbonavičius.

Lithuania came fifth in the semifinal, before ending sixth in the final with 162 points.
