San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014

Monetta had previously represented San Marino in both the 2012 and 2013 contests, though both entries failed to qualify for the grand final.

San Marino performed 12th in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2014, held on 6 May 2014, and placed 10th, receiving 40 points.

Siegel and Balestri began writing songs together in July 2013, for which Monetta recorded demos in Forte dei Marmi and at the Olympia Studio in Munich.

[23][29] Choreography for the performance was handled by art director Fabrizio Raggi, who also served in that role the previous year.

[30] During the winner's press conference for the first semi-final qualifiers, San Marino was allocated to compete in the second half of the grand final.

[34] An alternative broadcast of the semi-finals and the grand final were also available online on the SMRTV website with English commentary by John Kennedy O'Connor and Jamarie Milkovic.
