The song was performed twentieth on the night, following Italy's Toto Cutugno with "Insieme: 1992" and preceding Cyprus' Haris Anastasiou with "Milas Poli". At the close of voting, it had received 58 points, placing 10th in a field of 22.
The song is a dramatic ballad, in which Simone sings about the freedom brought about through the fall of the Berlin Wall. In keeping with the multi-national theme, the song contains some lyrics in English, French and Serbo-Croatian.
It was succeeded as Austrian representative at the 1991 Contest by Thomas Forstner singing "Venedig im Regen".
