À Chacun Sa Chanson (English translation: "To Everyone His Song") was the Monegasque entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1968, performed in French by Line & Willy.
The song is a duet about the power of music itself. The duo explain that they only want to "sing about love" as it makes them - and their listeners - happier.
The song was performed seventh on the night (following Switzerland's Gianni Mascolo with Guardando Il Sole and preceding Sweden's Claes-Göran Hederström with Det Börjar Verka Kärlek, Banne Mej). At the close of voting, it had received 8 points, placing 7th in a field of 17.
It was succeeded as Monegasque representative at the 1969 Contest by Jean Jacques with Maman, Maman.
