The Swedish participating broadcaster, Sveriges Radio (SR), selected its entry through a national final.

The song was performed once by Siw Malmkvist, once by Gunnar Wiklund in the national final.

However, none of them was considered acceptable for singing in Eurovision, so SR chose Lill-Babs as its representative instead.

On the night of the final, Lill-Babs performed 7th in the running order, following the Netherlands and preceding Germany.
