The song competed in the second semi-final on 14 May 2009 but failed to qualify for the final, making it the second time in a row and the third time in 5 years the nation failed to make it to the final.

It was chosen on 20 February 2009 as part of a special edition of chat show The Late Late Show which had Jerry Springer, Marty Whelan and Linda Martin reviewing the six entries competing to go to Moscow. It won with 78 points from a possible 80, awarded in two phases, phase one by national juries and phase two by the viewers.

The song was released as a single by Sony BMG on 1 May in Ireland, as both a physical CD single and as a digital download.[3] It debuted on the Irish charts at #15 and peaked at #6.[4]

gollark: I don't think it has good theming natively still, and in any case they let you get updates for longer and stuff.
gollark: There's a guide and stuff, but I'm not sure how hard it would be to actually do.
gollark: I have an old also-Samsung Android tablet from 2016 or so (got it for free) which I might try and port postmarketOS too, if it's not too hard.
gollark: Oh yes, generally.
gollark: It's irritating that we ended up with such an awful software ecosystem on phones. You can typically get updates for *ages* on a desktop system, because they don't run stupid monolithic OSes with tons of hardware-specific garbage.
