Prior to the Eurovision Song Contest, "I Wrote a Song" debuted at number 30 on the UK Singles Chart, and became the first UK Eurovision entry in over a decade to debut inside the chart's top 40. After the contest, it reached a new peak of number nine, becoming Muller's first UK top ten single.[4] It also entered the top 30 in Iceland and Lithuania and reached the top 50 in Ireland.
