"Croire" was performed at the
1988 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest by Fabian as an 18 year old emerging artist, who years later became internationally established. As a child and a teenager, Fabian composed her melodies and covered others songs on the piano, performed in small show rooms around
Brussels and took part in amateurs contests in Belgium during the 1980s, winning several prizes. Her win at "Le Tremplin de Bruxelles" gave her the opportunity to record her first single, the double track "L'Aziza est en pleurs" / "Il y avait", in 1986. After listening to both songs, producer Hubert Terheggen hurried to a piano-bar in Belgium where Fabian performed, and asked her to represent
RTL TV channel for Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest 1988. "Croire", composed by Jacques Cardona and Alain Garcia, was then presented to Fabian. At Eurovision the song was conducted by Régis Dupré and performed seventeenth, following 's
Reynaert with "
Laissez briller le soleil" and preceding 's
Luca Barbarossa with "
Vivo (Ti scrivo)". At the close of voting, it had received 90 points, placing 4th in a field of 21. This is Luxembourg's last entry in Eurovision to score a top five as well as a top ten position. It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the
1989 contest by
Park Café with "
Monsieur". ==Other releases==
