Après Toi (English translation: "After You") was the winning song of the Eurovision Song Contest 1972 performed in French by Vicky Leandros representing Luxembourg.
The song is a dramatic ballad, with the singer explaining what has happened to her since her lover left.
The song was performed seventeenth on the night (following Belgium's Serge & Christine Ghisoland with À La Folie Ou Pas Du Tout and preceding the Netherlands' Sandra & Andres with Als 't Om De Liefde Gaat). At the close of voting, it had received 128 points, placing 1st in a field of 18.
It was succeeded as Contest winner in 1973 by Anne-Marie David singing Tu Te Reconnaîtras also for Luxembourg.
