Luxembourg ish entry in theEurovision Song Contest 1970 , performed in French byDavid Alexandre Winter .The song is a ballad, with Winter telling his lover that he had previously lived in heaven before seeing her. As a result, he fell from his lofty place and now wishes not to return, implying that being with her is in fact better than being in heaven.

United Kingdom 'sMary Hopkin withKnock Knock, Who's There? and precedingSpain 'sJulio Iglesias withGwendolyne ). At the close of voting, it had received the dreaded "nul points", placing 12th (last) in a field of 12.It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1971 Contest by
