Romuald Figuier

Romuald Figuier (born on 5 May 1941) is a French singer aka Romuald.

He represented Monaco in the 1964 Eurovision Song Contest with "Où sont-elles passées?" and became 3rd.

Five years later he participated again, this time for Luxembourg, but his "Cathérine" only reached the 11th place.

In 1973, Romuald represented France with "Laissez-moi le Temps" in the 14th International Song Festival in Viña del Mar, Chile, where he became 2nd and got the prize to the Best Singer. Some years later, Paul Anka bought the rights of the song from the authors (Jourdan/Caravelli), composed lyrics in English and gave it to Frank Sinatra, who made it famous all over the world as "Let me Try Again".

His third attempt, representing Monaco again, in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with "Celui qui reste et celui qui s'en va" was 4th.
