It should be said that the problems are important: the 28 -year -old woman does not leave the 5 main tractors, the international press presents her as one of the most serious candidates for victory … if she managed to win with her. MotherShe would be the first to win France by Marie Myriam, in 1977.
The singer begins his last straight line. His essays, this week, as well as his performance during Thursday’s second semifinal, revealed a refined and poetic scene, in which Louane is taken in a whirlwind of liege cleansing that represent the grains of a sand watch. All carried by a fairly impressive voice and a moving message addressed to his mother, which disappeared in 2014.
He took months of essay, frantic promotion and mystery skillfully maintained to reach this level of precision. Back in weeks of preparation.
Play the secret
For months, Louane had fun highlighting clues about his participation. The rumors of his presence in Eurovision 2025 began last September, when the singer announced the list of songs of her album OnlyThen appear. The titles of each of the songs appeared, except those of track 9, which suggests that it could be a song that would defend during the tele-won and reveal later.

At the end of the album, this famous song 9 turned out to be a mysterious interlude in which Louane’s voice, on the phone, announced “I have good news”, without giving more information. Following the launch of the album, at the end of November, Louane, however, said in the columns of the Parisians that Eurovision would not do.
It was not up to three months later, on January 30, that Louane and the French delegation, piloted by Alexandra Redde-Amiel, revealed that he would represent France well during the competition. And it was still necessary to wait two additional months to discover the song: Louane interpreted it on March 15 at the Stade de France, during the part of the VI Nations tournament final, during a spectacular performance.
France was then the penultimate country that will present its candidate song to Eurovision 2025: “What is interesting is to be able to make the song intensely exists at a shorter time,” said Alexandra Redde-Amiel in The Parisian. This is the first time we have tried and it is true that it creates a much stronger expectation. “

A symbolic song
With MotherCo -written by Louane, the singer offers a mobile and autobiographical song. She sent her mother, taken by cancer when the singer was 17 years old and talks about her own motherhood: Louane gave birth to a girl in 2020.
