Luxembourg Chooses Tonight: Eight Songs, One Decision and a Very Old Story Getting a New Chapter
Tonight is one of those evenings that quietly feels bigger than the others. Luxembourg, one of Eurovision’s original heavyweights, is about to choose its representative for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, and there’s something undeniably symbolic about it.
This isn’t just another selection show. It’s a country that knows exactly what winning feels like, stepping back into the spotlight and asking a very modern question: who speaks for us now?
The running order is set (and it’s a curious one)
RTL has already revealed how the night will unfold, and the eight finalists will take the stage in the following order:
- Steve Castile – “Sweet Tooth”
- Luzac – “Prison Dorée”
- Daryss – “Melusina”
- ShiroKuro – “Eye To Eye”
- Andrew The Martian – “I’m The Martian”
- Hugo One – “Born Again”
- Eva Marija – “Mother Nature”
- Irem – “Bad Decisions (Hush Hush)”
It’s a line-up that feels deliberately eclectic. Pop sits next to introspection, fantasy brushes past irony, and there’s more than one title already doing the rounds in fan group chats. Exactly the kind of mix that makes a final unpredictable.
How the winner will be decided (no tricks involved)
Luxembourg isn’t reinventing the wheel tonight, and honestly, that’s refreshing. The result will be decided by a straightforward 50/50 split:
- 50% professional jury, made up of representatives from eight different countries
- 50% public vote, open not only to Luxembourgish viewers but also to international fans
So yes, if you’re watching from abroad and feel strongly about one of these songs, your vote actually counts.
Familiar faces on hosting duty
Guiding the evening will be Hana Sofia Lopes, Raoul Roos and Loïc Juchem, a trio tasked with keeping things moving, keeping nerves in check and reminding everyone that this is, in fact, a celebration.
No gimmicks promised. Just a smooth ride through a very important decision.
Why this feels different
Luxembourg doesn’t enter Eurovision casually. When it shows up, history comes with it. Tonight’s choice won’t just decide who sings on a big stage in May; it will quietly signal how the Grand Duchy sees itself in today’s Eurovision landscape.
Classic prestige? Contemporary edge? Something quietly left-field?
By the end of the night, we’ll know.
Eight songs. One winner. And Luxembourg, once again, ready to be part of the conversation.
