Eurovision

It competed in the first semi-final on 20 May 2008. It was sung in English, although it features one line in Catalan. As bookies predicted, it failed to get through to the final, placing 16th of 19 entries with 22 points. Although it failed to make it to the final, it still managed success on the music charts reaching #2 in Spain. It was also chosen as a favourite by the British commentator Caroline Flack.

The song was succeeded as Andorran entry at the 2009 contest by Susanne Georgi with "La teva decisió (Get a Life)".
