France in EuroMusic Song Contest 2

France participated in the second edition of the EuroMusic Song Contest. The French broadcaster, France 2, was responsible for their act.

Selection process
For their second participation the French broadcaster decided to select their submission internally. For this edition, like the two previous onces, the EBU decided that the countries have to perform a song in their own national language. Because of this, French has to perform an act in the French language.

Later on, the French language song "L'enfer et moi" was selected as act for the second edition in Düsseldorf.

At EuroMusic Song Contest
France was drawn to perform thirteenth following United Kingdom and preceding Spain, who performed last.

France became 6th with 69 points. Every country awarded points to this act.

Voting
The voting during the final consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to France and awarded by France in the final.
