| rdfs:comment | - Poupée de cire, poupée de son (English: wax doll, rag doll) was the Luxembourg entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1965 in Naples performed by France Gall. It was written by Serge Gainsbourg. As is common with Gainsbourg's lyrics, the words are filled with double meanings, wordplay, and puns. The title can be translated as "wax doll, rag doll" (a floppy doll stuffed with straw) or as "wax doll, sound doll" (with implications that Gall is a "singing doll" controlled by Gainsbourg).

| abstract | - Poupée de cire, poupée de son (English: wax doll, rag doll) was the Luxembourg entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1965 in Naples performed by France Gall. It was written by Serge Gainsbourg. As is common with Gainsbourg's lyrics, the words are filled with double meanings, wordplay, and puns. The title can be translated as "wax doll, rag doll" (a floppy doll stuffed with straw) or as "wax doll, sound doll" (with implications that Gall is a "singing doll" controlled by Gainsbourg). It was performed 15th on the night following Denmark and preceding Finland. At the close of voting, it was declared the winner with 32 points, giving Luxembourg its second victory. It was nominated as one of the fourteen best Eurovision songs of all time at the Congratulations: 50 Years special held in October 2005. France Gall has never sung the song in public since.
