"Anna rakkaudelle tilaisuus" (English translation: "Give Love A Chance") was the Finnish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1978, performed in Finnish by Seija Simola.

The song was performed fourth on the night (following Italy's Ricchi e Poveri with "Questo amore" and preceding Portugal's Gemini with "Dai Li Dou"). At the close of voting, it had received two points, placing 18th in a field of twenty.

The song is sung to a boy growing up. Simola tells him that, while everything in the world seems new and exciting at the moment, it will soon seem not so. Thus, he must learn to "give love a chance" in order to remain positive.

It was succeeded as Finnish representative at the 1979 Contest by Katri Helena with "Katson Sineen Taivaan".
