In 2006 France held a talent search to find the French representative at the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest. 10 acts were selected to compete in a televised national final, the winning artist being selected over two rounds of voting: the first to select the top 3 and the second to select the winner, who would sing a pre-written song, Vous, c’est nous.

After Virginie won, it was deemed that “Vous, c’est nous” did not suit her voice, and so a new song was commissioned: therefore Il était temps was the French entry for Eurovision 2016.
