Composer-lyricist combination Philip Vella and Gerard James Borg provided the Maltese entry at the 2002, 2004, 2007, 2008, and 2017 Contests. Additionally, two of Pace's backing singers were also solo entrants in their own right - Sahlene, performing under her real name, would go on to represent Estonia with "Runaway" and Gabriel Forss had previously represented Sweden as a member of Blond with "Bara hon älskar mig".
