On the night of the final, the song was sung 4th, following Germany's Münchener Freiheit with "Viel zu weit" and preceding Denmark's Tommy Seebach Band singing "Under stjernerne på himlen". At the close of the voting it had received 148 points, and placed 3rd in a field of 25. This was the best placing of Switzerland since Switzerland won in 1988 and it remained the last time the country finished in top five until 26 years later in 2019.
It was succeeded as Swiss representative at the 1994 contest by Duilio singing "Sto pregando".
An English version of the song, "I Will Be Myself" was recorded by Cotton in 1993.[1]
