description: "Norway was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 with the song \"I'm Not Afraid to Move On\", written by Arve Furset and VJ Strøm, and performed by Jostein Hasselgård. The Norwegian participating broadcaster, the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK), organised the national final Melodi Grand Prix 2003 in order to select its entry for the contest. The broadcaster returned to the contest after a one-year absence following its relegation in 2002 as one of the bottom six entrants in 2001. Twelve entries competed in a show that took place on 1 March 2003 and the winner was determined over two rounds of public televoting. The top four entries in the first round of voting advanced to the competition's second round—the Gold Final. In the second round of public televoting, \"I'm Not Afraid to Move On\" performed by Jostein Hasselgård was selected as the winner with 78,460 votes."
