The song was entered into Misión Eurovisión 2007, which was the Spanish national preselection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2007, and won. It was performed directly in the final (by virtue of Spain being one of the "Big Four" countries) at the Hartwall Areena in Helsinki, Finland. It was second in the running order, following Bosnia and Herzegovina's Marija Šestić with "Rijeka bez imena" and preceding Belarus' Dmitry Koldun with "Work Your Magic". It finished 20th with 43 points, a similar result from that of the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 with Las Ketchup's "Un Blodymary", which finished 21st with only 18 points.

The song was succeeded as Spanish entry at the 2008 contest by Rodolfo Chikilicuatre with "Baila el Chiki-chiki".

Music and lyrics

The original lyrics were completely in Spanish except the words of the title "I love you". In the final version for Helsinki, new English words were added to the song.

The co-writer of the music for "I Love You Mi Vida", Thomas G:son, also composed Norway's entry to the 2007 contest, which was "Ven a bailar conmigo" (performed by Guri Schanke).
