Je Suis L'Enfant-Soleil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Je Suis L'Enfant-Soleil (English translation: "I'm The Sun-Child") was the French entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1979, performed in French by Anne-Marie David.
The song was performed eleventh on the night (following Israel's Gali Atari and Milk & Honey with Hallelujah and preceding Belgium's Micha Marah with Hey Nana). At the close of voting, it had received 106 points, placing 3rd in a field of 19.
The song is a ballad, with David describing a youthful love affair (although it appears that she did not quite appreciate the meaning of it at the time) with someone "from the north". The affair seems to have affected her, as she calls for her lover's return.
It was succeeded as French representative at the 1980 Contest by Profil with Hé Hé M'Sieurs Dames.
