Rosa was joined onstage by five of the other finalists in her season, including David Bustamente and David Bisbal, both of whom became huge stars in Spain. Another finalist, Gisela, went on to represent Andorra at Eurovision in 2008.
The song was performed 5th on the night following Greece and preceding Croatia. At the close of voting, it finished in 7th place with 81 points, one of Spain's best results in the 21st century.

(Celebration, celebration)
(Celebration, celebration)
(Celebration, celebration)
(Celebration, celebration)
(Celebration, celebration)
Estoy feliz de encontrarme hoy aquí
Y no me preguntes más porqué
Ya corre en mis venas la emoción
Y nace en mí una ilusión
Siento algo nuevo en mi interior
Que me llega a ti
Un camino por hacer (camino por hacer)
Sin nada que esconder
Europe's living a celebration
Todos juntos, vamos a cantar
Europe's living a celebration
Nuestro sueño - una realidad
No se oirán jamás las voces que no
Nos dejen dar el paso final
Si existe en nosotros la pasión
Y brilla una luz en tu interior
Ahora el tiempo nos cambió
Y será para siempre
No dudes por favor
Lo dice el corazón
Europe's living a celebration
Todos juntos, vamos a cantar
Europe's living a celebration
Nuestro sueño - una realidad
No nos dejes amor
(No lo hagas, por favor)
No digas adiós
(Nunca jamás)
Y crece, va creciendo
La fuerza y la ilusión
Oh
(Celebration, celebration)
Oh hoh yeah hey, yeah hey
(Celebration, celebration)
Ooh
(Celebration, celebration)
(Celebration, celebration)
Europe's living a celebration
Todos juntos, vamos a cantar
Europe's living a celebration
Nuestro sueño - una realidad
Europe's living a celebration
Nuevos tiempos - la necesidad
Europe's living a celebration
Es tu fiesta y no hay vuelta atrás
Celebration, celebration
I'm happy to be here today
And don't you ask me why again
The emotion already runs through my veins
And an illusion is born inside of me
I feel something new inside of me
That leads me to you
A path to be made (path to be made)
With nothing to hide
All of us, we're going to sing
Our dream - a reality
We'll never hear the voices that stop us
From making the last step
If passion exists within us
And a light shines inside of you
Now the times have changed
And it will be forever
Don't hesitate, please
Your heart says it
All of us, we're going to sing
Our dream - a reality
Love, don't leave us
(Don't do it, please)
Don't say goodbye
(Never ever)
And the strength and the illusion
Will keep growing and growing
New times - we need
It's your party and there's no going back
Celebration, celebration
