At Eurovision
On the night of the final Stella performed 11th in the running order, following Austria and preceding Spain. At the close of the voting "Si tu aimes ma musique" had received 96 points, placing Belgium 4th of the 18 entries.[3] Although the song did not receive any 12 points votes (the highest were 10 from Denmark and Spain), it achieved the distinction of being only the eighth song in Eurovision history to that date (and only the third non-winner) to receive points from every other participating country (excluding the 1971-1973 contests where each country had to award a minimum of 2 points to every song). The Belgian jury awarded its 12 points to Switzerland.[4]
