"Euro-Vision" (French pronunciation: ​[øʁo vizjɔ̃]) was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980, performed in French by Telex. The song was performed nineteenth on the night, following Spain's Trigo Limpio with "Quédate esta noche". At the close of voting, it had received 14 points, placing 17th in a field of 19. The band were moderately pleased with the outcome of the contest, but for a somewhat unusual reason: at the time lead singer was quoted as saying: "We had hoped to finish last, but Portugal decided otherwise. We got ten points from them and finished on the 19th [sic] spot". In hindsight their participation in the Contest however seems to have served its marketing purposes; some thirty years on "Euro-Vision" remains one of the band's best-known songs, both in Belgium
