Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest 1978

Germany was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1978 with the song "Feuer", composed by Erich Leissman and Jean Frankfurter, with lyrics by John Möring, and performed by Ireen Sheer. The German participating broadcaster on behalf of ARD, Südwestfunk (SWF), selected its entry through a national final. This was the second of Sheer's three Eurovision appearances; she had previously represented Luxembourg in 1974 and would later represent Luxembourg in 1985 as a member of a six-piece ensemble.

The 1978 German final is notable for the fact that voting was to be split in a 2:1 ratio between an "expert" jury and a panel of radio listeners but after hearing the songs, the expert jury decided that none was up to par and refused to vote, leaving the choice entirely in the hands of the radio panel.
