The song is an up-tempo duet, with the singers confessing their love for one another and planning to leave where they are in order to "be together all the time". The title comes from the chorus, where both singers ask each other to "tell me" how much they love each other.
The Icelandic version named "Hvert sem er" (translated as "Anywhere") won Söngvakeppnin 2000[1][2] with 4318 teveloting votes, over 3 times more than the runner-up song "Söknuður" performed by Páll Rósinkranz. The Icelandic version was recorded but not released.
It was performed twelfth in the Eurovision Song Contest, following Cyprus' Voice with "Nomiza" and preceding Spain's Serafín Zubiri with "Colgado de un sueño". At the close of voting, it had received 45 points, placing 12th in a field of 24.
The song was succeeded as Icelandic representative at the 2001 contest by Two Tricky with "Angel".
