Performing during the show in position 16, "Here for You" was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 23 May.
In the final, Slovenia performed in position 1 and placed fourteenth out of the 27 participating countries, scoring 39 points.
The country's only other top ten result was achieved in 1997 when Tanja Ribič performing "Zbudi se" placed tenth.
[2] The Slovenian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest has traditionally been selected through a national final entitled Evrovizijska Melodija (EMA), which has been produced with variable formats.
[3][4] An online backstage broadcast at RTV Slovenija's official website also occurred concurrently with the competition.
In case of technical problems with the televote, the jury would have voted to determine the winner in a similar process as in the first round of the competition.
[9] An expert committee consisting of Darja Švajger (1995 and 1999 Slovenian Eurovision entrant), Matej Wolf (musician, instrumentalist, arranger, producer and music teacher), Aleksander Radić (Head of the Slovenian delegation at the Eurovision Song Contest) and Jernej Vene (music editor for Radio Val 202) selected eight artists and songs for the competition from the received submissions.
Among the competing artists was former Slovenian Eurovision contestant Martina Majerle who represented Slovenia in 2009 alongside Quartissimo.
The jury consisted of the three female hosts Darja Švajger, Maja Keuc and Tinkara Kovač.
[14] According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final.
[16] On 26 January 2015, an allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in.
[21] The Slovenian performance featured the members of Maraaya joined by a dancer on stage who simulated the playing of a violin.
Maraaya was joined by three off-stage backing vocalists: Manca Špik, Nika Zorjan and Karin Zemljič.
[22][23][24] At the end of the show, Slovenia was announced as having finished in the top ten and subsequently qualifying for the grand final.
The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency.
This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.
In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.
