Les Amants De Minuit (English translation: "Midnight Lovers") was the second Luxembourgish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1956 (the rules of this Contest and no other allowing two entries per country), performed in French by Michèle Arnaud.
The song is in the chanson style popular in the early years of the Contest. Arnaud describes the meeting of two "midnight lovers", and sings that only the night knows what passes between them before they return to their normal lives in the morning.
The song was performed thirteenth on the night (following France's Dany Dauberson with Il Est Là and preceding Italy's Tonina Torielli with Amami se vuoi). As the scoreboard of this Contest has never been made public, no statements about score or placing can be made, however the song did not win.
It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1957 Contest by Danièle Dupré with Amours Mortes (Tant De Peine).
