In 2008, it ranked 42nd, which was 11 places better than the previous year; in 2011 it was in 65th place and in 2012 in 83rd place.
The second song on their debut single was "De wereld vergaat", which appeared on the self-titled album from 1998.
In 2020, the Georgian group Trio Mandili recorded a cover version of t Smidje".
