Monaco was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 with the song "Tout de moi", composed by Didier Fabre, with lyrics by Philippe Bosco, and performed by Lise Darly. The Monégasque participating broadcaster, Télé Monte-Carlo (TMC), internally selected its entry for the contest. The selection of Lise Darly and "Tout de moi" as the Monégasque representative was announced on 12 January 2005, while the song was presented on 18 March 2005.
Monaco competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 19 May 2005. Performing during the show in position 6, "Tout de moi" 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 Monaco placed twenty-fourth out of the 25 participating countries in the semi-final with 22 points.
