Stay Forever was the Slovenian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 in Istanbul performed by the duo Platin. The song had a 90s feel, leading many to believe that the song was too "late" to be in the contest.
It was performed 16th in the semifinal following Macedonia and preceding Estonia. At the close of voting, it finished in 21st place with 5 points, failing to qualify for the final.

Ooh... hey yeah yeah
Come on, let's fly away, girl
Up on cloud number nine I'd wish to flow
You're my most precious pearl
Hmm... waiting for you, that's all I need to know
Wait and see how it's gonna be
Hold my hand, just don't let go
Birds of a feather flock together
But time will tell, people say, so
Stay forever and ever
You will always be my baby
Stay forever, I'll never hurt you
I won't make you cry, no, no, no
Stay forever, no matter what may happen
Don't give up on me
Do whatever, I'll never let go
I will catch your fall
Through our sunny and dark sides of life
Feelings like this are made to survive
What the rest of the world thinks doesn't matter
Because we know it better
Stay forever and ever
You will always be my baby
Stay forever, I'll never hurt you
I won't make you cry, no, no, no
Stay forever, no matter what may happen
Don't give up on me
Do whatever, I'll never let go
I will catch your fall
Stay forever and ever
You will always be my baby, baby
Stay forever, I'll never hurt you
I won't make you cry
