Après Toi (also recorded in English as "Come What May") 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.
