The song was Russia's entry in the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest after Little Big had been internally selected by the Russian broadcaster, Channel One. The song would have performed in one of the two semi-final rounds. On 28 January 2020, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals. Russia was placed in the first semi-final, which was to be held on 12 May 2020, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show. However Eurovision Song Contest 2020 was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]
