The song was performed eighteenth on the night, following Spain's Sergio y Estíbaliz with "Tú volverás" and preceding Italy's Wess and Dori Ghezzi with "Era". At the close of voting, it had received 72 points, placing 8th in a field of 19. Berghagen has released this song also in his language native Swedish and in German, both with the same title "Jennie, Jennie".

Sweden then opted out of the 1976 contest, since broadcaster Sveriges Radio (SR) did not have enough money to host another contest if Sweden were to win again and because there were protests in the country against the commercial character of the Eurovision Song Contest.

Bessy Argyraki performed a version of the song in Greek.
