Background


Talking about the song Emmelie said, "It is about a tribe joining together to call upon the rainmaker to make their land blossom again. But on a more general level the rainmaker can be anything or anyone – it is about coming together and helping each other out". She also talked about enjoying success after winning Eurovision last year, "I’ve been performing my music around Europe, released my debut album and written a lot of new songs – to be honest, I’m living my dream!"[1]


Live performances


Emmelie sang the song live during the Maltese national final, the German national final, the Andra Chansen round of the Melodifestivalen in Lidköping and Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2014.

On 10 May 2014 Emmelie performed the song with the 26 finalists live during the final of Eurovision Song Contest 2014, at the B&W Hallerne, in Copenhagen, Denmark.[1]
