At ESC, they finished 13th (out of 18).

Each country nominated two jury members, one below the age of 25 and the other above, who voted for their respective country by giving between one and five points to each song, except that representing their own country. All jury members were colocated in the Grand Hall of Edinburgh Castle. The Swedish jury members were Titti Sjöblom and Arne Domnérus.
