"No No Never" was the German entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006, performed in English by Texas Lightning. While Germany had finished the 2005 contest in last place, their position as one of the Contest's "Big Four" (along with the United Kingdom, France and Spain) ensured the song an automatic final berth. Thus, it was performed eighth on the night, following Malta's Fabrizio Faniello with "I Do" and preceding Denmark's Sidsel Ben Semmane with "Twist of Love". At the close of voting, it had received 36 points, placing 14th in a field of 24.
"No No Never" was also issued as a single in German-speaking Europe, serving as the second release from Texas Lightning's first album, Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch (2005), in 2006. In Germany, the song spent 39 weeks on the German Singles Chart, reaching number one for three nonconsecutive weeks in May and June 2006. It ended the year as Germany's second-best-selling hit and was certified platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI). In Austria and Switzerland, the song peaked within the top 10.
