It was produced by Cutfather & Joe and included on the band's self-titled debut album (2000). "Say It Again" was released as a single in the United Kingdom on 17 May 1999 and peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart. In July 2000, it was serviced to contemporary hit radio in the United States. It was the last girl group to represent the UK in the contest until 2025.[1]
The song was performed 5th on the night of the contest, following Croatia's Doris Dragović with "Marija Magdalena" and preceding Slovenia's Darja Švajger with "For a Thousand Years". The song received 38 points, placing 12th in a field of 23, it was one of the four which were omitted from the Eurovision 1999 compilation album as permission to include it had not been obtained.
