Main article: Malta in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016

"Walk on Water" performed by Ira Losco was announced as the Maltese entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 on 14 March 2016.[1] Initially, the Maltese entry was selected via the national final Malta Eurovision Song Contest 2016, organised by the Maltese broadcaster Public Broadcasting Services (PBS), which resulted in Ira Losco winning the competition with the song "Chameleon" on 23 January 2016.[2] The rules of the Maltese national selection allowed for the winning artist to change the winning song either partially or entirely with the consent of the winning composers. In February 2016, PBS announced that a jury panel consisting of international and local experts would determine the song Ira Losco would ultimately perform at the Eurovision Song Contest from a selection of ten songs, including a revamped version of "Chameleon".[3] The jury panel selected "Walk on Water" as the Maltese entry.[1] The song was released to the public on 17 March via the presentation of the official music video.[4][5]

Losco performed the song during the first semi-final of the 2016 contest on 10 May, which was held at the Ericsson Globe in Stockholm, Sweden.[6] She qualified and performed in the grand final, placing 12th with 153 points.

Music video

The music video for the song was filmed in March 2016 in Gozo and at the Malta National Aquarium in St. Paul's Bay.[1] The release of the official music video was announced on 17 March 2016 during the TVM news bulletin and was made available online at the broadcaster's website tvm.com.mt and the official Eurovision Song Contest website eurovision.tv.[4][5]
