Neurovision is the second album by Belgian electronic pop band Telex, released in 1980.[1] The album notably features "Euro-Vision", the band's tongue-in-cheek entry to Eurovision 1980, representing their home country of Belgium, featuring "deliberately banal lyrics" about the contest itself.[2] Reportedly, they aspired to finish last, but ended up placing 17th out of 19.[2]
