With the rapidly expanding size of the Contest, the decision was taken to restrict entry to the 2002 contest to those countries recording the best 13 results of 2001 (not including the Big Four), a group which did not include Norway. As a "passive participant" in 2002 (that is, a country broadcasting but not entering the Contest), Norway was re-admitted to the 2003 edition. Thus, the song was succeeded as Norwegian representative at the 2003 contest by Jostein Hasselgård with "I'm Not Afraid To Move On".
