The performance was unique for the fact that not only the song's author, but also the conductor, Henrik Krogsgaard (also a Eurovision regular), joined Kjær on stage as backup singers and dancers.

Krogsgaard was "invited" by Kjær to join her by a gesture referring to the song's lyrics, which he promptly did leaving the orchestra to be conducted by the host country's backup conductor, Benoît Kaufman, to the surprise of the TV viewers.

The song was performed twelfth on the night, following Luxembourg's Park Café with "Monsieur" and preceding Austria's Thomas Forstner with "Nur ein Lied".

The song has become known as one of the stronger Danish entries, and Birthe Kjær herself was originally slated to perform it as part of a medley of favourites at the Congratulations Eurovision 50th anniversary special in late 2005, but had to withdraw due to ill health.

The show (written by Rasmus Mansachs) played in Copenhagen, Denmark in April 2010 and was based on and filled with more than 20 of the biggest Danish Eurovision Song from the 1950s up to the present.
