Cinquetti returned in the Eurovision Song Contest 1974, held in Brighton, where she again represented Italy.

Cinquetti later recorded versions of the song in English ("Go (Before You Break My Heart)"), French ("Lui"), German ("Ja") and Spanish ("Sí").

Cinquetti returned to the Eurovision stage to perform "Non ho l'età" as an interval act during the final of the 2022 contest in Turin.
