At Eurovision
Lehakat Shiru performed 24th on the night of the final, preceding Norway. On stage, the members dressed in traditional Israeli dress, wearing red ribbons in solidarity with people living with HIV/AIDS.[1] Bracha, Haim, Nadler and Proiter were in the center of the stage, while Sharon was on piano and Zamir was backing singer. At the end of the song, they all joined in a row at the front of the stage.
They received 4 points, placing 24th in a field of 25, Israel's worst ever finish in the grand final, and therefore were relegated from participating in the Eurovision Song Contest 1994.[2]
