L'amour ça fait chanter la vie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"L'amour ça fait chanter la vie" (English: "Love, It Makes Life Sing") was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1978, performed in French by Jean Vallée.

The song was performed tenth on the night (following Switzerland's Carole Vinci with "Vivre" and preceding the Netherlands' Harmony with "'T Is OK"). At the close of voting, it had received 125 points, coming secondnd in a field of twenty.

The song is about the power of love, specifically the way in which it can enhance life. The lyrics include the image that love makes one "a musician/Real little Chopins only for a blonde".

It was succeeded as Belgian representative in the 1979 Contest by Micha Marah singing "Hey Nana".
