Andorra was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 with the song "La mirada interior", written by Rafael Artesero, Daniel Aragay, and Rafa Fernández, and performed by Marian van de Wal. The Andorran participating broadcaster, Ràdio i Televisió d'Andorra (RTVA), organised the national final Desitja'm sort in order to select its entry for the contest. The national final took place over three stages and two televised shows, resulting in the selection of Marian van de Wal as the winning artist on 19 December 2004 and "La mirada interior" as the winning song on 22 January 2005.
Andorra competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 19 May 2005. Performing during the show in position 18, "La mirada interior" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Andorra placed twenty-third out of the 25 participating countries in the semi-final with 27 points.
