The song was released on the internet on June 27, 2009. The final night of the festival was held on July 8, 2009. The trio placed the eight with 39 points.[9] In September 2009, it was announced Bebić and Majstorović would make cameo appearances in television series Žene sa Dedinja.[10] Bebić joined Croatian singer Severina Vučković on the stage during her tour performance in Belgrade, performing Vučković's song "Prijateljice" with Severina herself and Nataša Bekvalac.[11] She has performed several times in many of Emotions TV programs such as "Sve za ljubav" and "Veliki Brat".

On June 16, 2010, Belgrade tabloids reported that the side window of Ana's car was broken the day before by unknown perpetrator(s) while the car was parked in Lamartine's street in the Vračar neighbourhood in Belgrade, speculating the reason might have been that the vehicle was carrying Croatian license plates. Regarding the incident Ana said: "I feel great in the capital of Serbia, being accepted wonderfully by all. Belgrade is a free and open city and I don't want to believe that someone acted loutish and broke my car window only because it [car] has Dubrovnik license plates."[12]

On June 21, 2010, Ana performed at the Belgrade World Music Day celebration which was held on three stages in Serbia's capital.
