The small city of Millstreet, Ireland, was the host for this year's Eurovision Song Contest. 1993 was the first year to feature a pre-qualifying heat for Eastern European countries. In the run-up to the contest, the European Broadcasting Union started to take into account how many potential countries would apply to enter the contest. The dissolution of the Eastern bloc and the disintegration of Yugoslavia created many new potential applicants. Because of that, seven countries from Eastern Europe had to participate in a preliminary heat called Kvalifikacija za Millstreet in Ljubljana, Slovenia, on the 3rd of April, in order to go to the final night of the 1993 Eurovision Song Contest. Bosnia & Herzegovina, Slovenia and Croatia made it through the preliminary heat and made their debut in the song contest as independent nations. Hungary, Slovakia, Romania and Estonia had to wait till the following year to be eligible to enter Europe's biggest musical event.
Ireland had their second victory in a row with the song In Your Eyes performed by Niamh Kavanagh who shot to fame due to the original soundtrack to the movie The Commitments. After a nailbiting finish, Niamh managed to keep the entry from the United Kingdom second with the very last vote. The UK entry Better The Devil You Know by Sonia was seen by many as the favorite to win, as Sonia had had some international hits with the legendary producers Stock, Aitken and Waterman.
The venue for the 1993 contest was very unusual - it was a hall normally used for horse auctions in the tiny town of Millstreet, near Cork. The contestants complained they were in the middle of nowhere with not a pub in sight. However, the Irish audience made up for this inconvenience as they enthusiastically welcomed all participating nations and also gave a special warm reception for the entry from Bosnia & Herzegovina - a country in a state of war in 1993.

Gatan är tom och kall
Jag har vandrat i timmar
Timmar
Jag tänker på vad som hänt oss
Orden du sa som var så sant
Att min kärlek har svalnat
Vi vet om att något måste hända
Om vi ska hitta tillbaks igen
I do I do I do
Nu står jag redo här framför dig
Och inser att jag älskar dig
I do I do
Du gör mig lycklig
Lycklig
I do I do I do
Ja känslan den är så explosiv
Jag måste ha dig i mitt liv
I do I do
Du gör mig lycklig
Lycklig
I vardan är lätt att glömma
Känslan som finns blir slentrian
Man tar det för givet
Livet
Vi vet om något måste hända
Om vi ska hitta tillbaks igen
I do I do I do
Nu står jag redo här framför dig
Och inser att jag älskar dig

Bara för dig

Arvingarna's song "I Do" depicts a situation where the singer is wandering in a cold, empty street, lost in thought about the words his partner said earlier about his love going cold. He acknowledges that something must be done if they want to rekindle their relationship. The song's chorus emphasizes the simple yet strong phrase, "I do," which he repeatedly declares to his partner in a plea to work things out.
The song conveys a sense of urgency, passion, and vulnerability as the singer declares his love for his partner. The act of saying "I do" represents a commitment to the relationship, and it becomes the central theme of the song. The lyrics suggest that taking someone for granted in a relationship is easy to do, but recognizing and acknowledging the value of the relationship and making a commitment to it is a necessary step towards lasting happiness.
