Laat Me Nu Gaan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Laat Me Nu Gaan (English translation: "Let Me Go Now") was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1985, performed in Dutch by Linda Lepomme.
The song was performed eighth on the night (following Turkey's MFÖ with Didai Didai Dai (Aşık Oldum) and preceding Portugal's Adelaide with Penso Em Ti, Eu Sei). At the close of voting, it had received 7 points, placing 19th in a field of 19.
The song is sung from the perspective of a woman trapped in a loveless relationship. She asks her lover to "let me go" and wonders how he could not have seen that this was necessary.
It was succeeded as Belgian representative at the 1986 Contest by Sandra Kim performing J'aime La Vie.
