Luxembourg ish entry in theEurovision Song Contest 1958 , performed in French bySolange Berry .The song is in the "chanson" style, and features Berry singing about the unexpectedness of a "great love". As the song ends, however, she sings about the ending of such a love, but sings that it is not a bad thing if it is replaced by friendship.
The song was performed fourth on the night (following
France 'sAndré Claveau withDors, Mon Amour and precedingSweden 'sAlice Babs withLilla Stjärna ). At the close of voting, it had received 1 point, placing 9th (equal last) in a field of 10.Luxembourg did not enter the 1959 Contest, but returned the following year. Thus, the song was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1960 Contest by
Camillo Felgen withSo Laang We's Du Do Bast .
