Grolskira participated in the Internatia Song Contest 17 in Liechgrado, Yazminia. They selected their song through national final, called Lakmosoja Y Lakma 17: States!, organised by GLTV and the winner of it was Miss Montreal with the song "Wish I Could".
GLTV planned to make this edition as the one, where the singers, which are having different nationalities, can compete. The preparations for it had already begun - 7 songs were chosen and Grolskiric people were able to vote. First they rated the looks of the singer, then they listened to the songs and rated them. Few days later, people were asked to vote again, this time knowing, who sang which song and rate them. But suddenly, this decision was moved to LYL 19 and GLTV tried to come up with a new idea.
Lakmosoja Y Lakma 17: States!
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. But the editions got swapped, so, the state edition will be held 2 LYLs earlier.
GLTV decided, who will participate in LYL 17, by checking out the applications from each state they receive. After the song is chosen, GLTV sends their state correspondants to local newspaper centres and tell them the entrant. The newspaper of each state must write the news about representant, otherwise any of the states, which didn't do that, will be disqualified from LYL 17. Fortunately, all of the songs were received in time.
Hosts of the evening were Lily Allen and Bryn Christopher. Saint Lu was appointed as a greenroom host. All of the music, except the participating songs were played by the orchestra band, called Krelstauz.
