In autumn 2015, the song was submitted to the Swiss broadcaster SRF's online voting platform, where it received enough votes to pass through to the live expert check.[3] Rykka passed through the expert check held on 6 December 2015, advancing to the televised final.[4] In the final on 13 February 2016, she was declared the winner and will now represent Switzerland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016, in Stockholm. On May 12, 2016, she performed in the first-half of the second semi-final,[1] but failed to qualify for the May 14 final.
