The Swiss national final to select their entry, Concours Eurovision '86, was held on 25 January 1986 at 21:15 CET, in the Schweizer Radio DRS Studios in Zürich, and was hosted by singer Paola del Medico who previously represented Switzerland in 1969 and 1980.[1][2] Five juries selected the winner: one jury each from the German, French and Italian cantons of Switzerland, one jury made up of radio, television and newspaper journalists, and one jury composed of "music experts."
French, German and Italian were represented equally in the national final, with three songs in each language. One of the three German songs, "Verschänk doch dini Liebi", was sung in the Swiss German dialect. The song "Lily Lilas" was sung partially in German and partially in French. For the first time, Romansh was represented in the national selection with the song "Tragnölin".
Simmons performed tenth on the night of the Contest, following Spain and preceding Israel. At the close of the voting the song had received 140 points, placing 2nd in a field of 20 competing countries.[3] It would become Switzerland's third (and final) second-placing song.
The Swiss conductor at the contest was the composer of the song, Atilla Şereftuğ.
