On 11 January 2010, the Bosnian broadcaster Radio and Television of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BHRT) revealed that they had internally selected Brajić to compete at the 2010 contest in Oslo, Norway.

[2] On 24 November 2009, BHRT opened the submission period for artists and composers to submit their entries for consideration up until a 20 December 2009 deadline.

[3] 42 valid submissions out of 60 were received at the closing of the deadline and on 11 January 2010, BHRT announced that they had internally selected Vukašin Brajić to represent them in Oslo with the song "Munja i grom", written by Dino Šaran.

[5] The eight-member selection committee that selected Brajić and the song to be performed at the contest consisted of Dejan Kukrić (Bosnian Head of Delegation at the Eurovision Song Contest), Jasmin Ferović (music editor at BH Radio 1), Adnan Mušanović (music producer of MP BHRT), Zoran Nikolić (assistant professor at the University of Banja Luka Academy of Arts), Amira Medunjanin (musician), Ismet Arnautalić (producer), Vesna Andree-Zaimović (musicologist) and Vlado Podany (musician).

[6] "Munja i grom" was presented during a television special on 14 March 2010 entitled BH Eurosong Show 2010 and hosted by Ilma Ramčević, Gorjan Kalauzović and Nejra Sitnić.

[13] Following its presentation, modifications were made to the song to add a longer bridge, thunder sound effects and make it more rock-like in style; this final version was released by late April 2010.

[16] Vukašin Brajić made several appearances across Europe to specifically promote "Thunder and Lightning" as the Bosnian Eurovision entry.

[17] He also took part in promotional activities in Belgium where he appeared during the TV Limburg talk show Studio TVL and performed during the Pink Nation event which was held in Antwerp on 30 April.

[14] The Eurovision Song Contest 2010 took place at Telenor Arena in Oslo, Norway, and consisted of two semi-finals held on 25 and 27 May, respectively, and the grand final on 29 May 2010.

[27] The Bosnian performance featured Brajić in a red jacket, t-shirt and jeans, joined on stage by five backing vocalists.

[13][26][29] The five backing vocalists that joined Brajić were: Danijela Večerinović, Dunja Galineo Kajević, Edvin Hadžić, Elma Selimović and Marko Vulinović.

This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.
