On 13th September 2013, GLTV decided to open suggestions for "Lakmosoja Y Lakma 19", where people can send their songs, and they also gave out one rule: the song must not had been sung in any LYL before. Firstly this edition got swapped with 17th edition, but lated it was also made a state edition, where people can be selecting songs to get a chance to represent any state or their own one in LYL 19.

Early accusations

5 minutes after the show, someone from GLTV, who travels around the world for foreign information informed the executive supervisor of LYL, that this song already participated in ISC rival contest, called NSC, and won the 84th edition, which was held in Serenate & Clair. The song was sent under the name of Bacchus, which is now a defunct territory and it is not known for them, who replaced that land. Grolskiric people started to fear of a possible boycott from ISC/NSC countries, who were active at that time and it might ruin their chances to qualify to the final.

At ISC

Grolskira was drawn to perform in 1st semifinal under number 22, following Ħanei Čaravāz and preceeding Kaledonii. It was becoming an early favourite due to a lot of mentions from other countries who posted their tops in Semifinal 1 bulletin board in Delta Arena's backstage. The semifinal performance was including two drummers dressed as Napoleon Bonaparte and three violinist backings. There were a lot of while lighting and the backdrop was mostly taken from the official video of the song. At the end of the performance, one of the violinists (the blonde haired one) pulled out a flag with two keys (basically the same one from "Iron" videoclip, the Yutulandian 13 entry's) and waved it until the very end of the performance.

Grolskira qualified to the ISC 19 final and was announced in the first envelope, which meant a lot for Grolskiric people, because they easily had to watch the remaining qualification show without any worry of being not announced, because Grolskira was already announced, thus qualified to the big final. The final draw of Grolskira was 23 (the latest draw Grolskira ever had in the final), following Evergreen Lands and preceeding Amsteris. The final performance was about not being different than the one from semifinal, but it actually differed, because there were more orchestra people on stage.

At the end of the final, Grolskira received 169 points, which smashed the point record of Grolskira for the 3rd time in a row and eventually bettered Grolskiric result in ISC, coming just lower than Monteverde in the final and placing 2nd. The best Grolskiric ISC placing before that was 3rd place in ISC 5 with Nolwenn Leroy and "Tri Martolod".

After ISC

Some of the participants of Lakmosoja Y Lakma were delegated to the next Lakmosoja Y Lakma Bests edition, which is the selection for ISC 20. Natalia Kills did not win that one as well, so she was taken by Chruno in their national final with other Southeastern nations for ISC 20. She won for Chruno, but did not qualify to the final. ChTV still blames Grolskira for not voting them in the semi and losing their qualification.

Chisu was jokingly rumoured to be sent to Grolskiric ISCC debut edition, but she was never sent there. YADi was chosen to represent Grolskira in ISC 28, however, when the day of angry arguements flamed on at the same time Green Day were rehearsing in the building GLTV and GrolSat staff were arguing with each other and Green Day members came in the room both of those TV stations argued with each other, they were immediately announced as the new ISC 28 entrants for Grolskira. It happened just in time YADi came late to GLTV and GrolSat united meeting and wasn't welcome anymore. But CSI, Sunettian ISC broadcaster, signed her in to ISCC because GLTV were suggesting her "Guillotine" to Sunettian national final ages ago and for ISC 17. She didn't do very well there.
