Telegram was the German entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1977, performed in English (the first occasion on which the German entry had not featured at least some lyrics in German by Silver Convention.
The song was performed sixth on the night (following Norway's Anita Skorgan with Casanova and preceding Luxembourg's Anne-Marie B. with Frère Jacques). At the close of voting, it had received 55 points, placing 8th in a field of 18.

The song is inspired by the disco music popular at the time, with the group singing about their need to send a telegram to a lover to bring him to them.

It was succeeded as German representative at the 1978 Contest by Ireen Sheer with Feuer.
