Tu Te Reconnaîtras (English translation: "You'll Recognise Yourself") was the winning song of the Eurovision Song Contest 1973 performed in French by Anne-Marie David representing Luxembourg. It was one of the rare occasions when a country has won the Contest two years in succession.

The song is about the universality of human experience. David sings that "you'll recognise yourself" in various other people, such as a child being punished by a teacher. It was performed also "Göreceksin Kendini" by Nilüfer in 1974.

The song was performed eleventh on the night (following Italy's Massimo Ranieri with Chi sarà and preceding Sweden's Nova with You Are Summer - You Never Tell Me No). At the close of voting, it had received 129 points, placing 1st in a field of 17.

It was succeeded in 1974 as Contest winner by ABBA singing Waterloo for Sweden.

It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1974 Contest by Ireen Sheer with Bye Bye I Love You.
