Luxembourg ish entry in theEurovision Song Contest 1982 , performed in French by Svetlana.The song deals with the focus of the modern world - with Svetlana suggesting that it is all about running after "time", "money" and "glory", when that is ultimately going to cause problems. As she explains, "If I have to run all the time/What would I do with the money?" As the song concludes, she explains that she will simply love - and if this is madness, she wants to meet other mad people.
The song was performed second on the night (following
Portugal 'sDoce withBem Bom and precedingNorway 'sJahn Teigen &Anita Skorgan withAdieu ). At the close of voting, it had received 78 points, placing 6th in a field of 18.It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1983 Contest by
Corinne Hermès withSi La Vie Est Cadeau .
