On the night of the final Hurley performed 7th in the running order, following Belgium and preceding the Netherlands . At the close of voting, "When" had picked up 54 points, placing Ireland 10th of the 18 entries.[2] Ireland received one maximum 12 from Italy , which the Irish jury reciprocated by awarding their 12 to the Italian song – oddly, neither country received a maximum vote from any other national jury.[3]
