Luxembourg in Eurovision
And all this would have been insignificant for a tiny European landlocked country if this country wasn’t one of the founder members of EBU that participated in the very first Eurovision Song Contest in 1956 in Lugano.
Luxembourg has achieved an admirable total of five victories in the contest (1961,1965,1972,1973, 1983). Some of the most worlwide acclaimed acts have represented the nation, such as Lara Fabian, Ireen Sheer, Baccara, Nana Mouskouri, Vicky Leandros, Anne Marie David, France Gall. Despite its 37 participations, the low placing in the contest and the low TV rating in the country have kept it many years away from the Eurovision Stage.
Luxembourg was last seen in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993 in Millstreet when Modern Times represented the country with the song Donnez Moi Une Chance De Te Dire and achieved a 20th placing.
