Belgium was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1985 with the song "Laat me nu gaan", composed by Pieter Verlinden, with lyrics by Bert Vivier, and performed by Linda Lepomme. The Belgian participating broadcaster, Flemish Belgische Radio- en Televisieomroep (BRT), internally selected its entry for the contest. BRT, unusually at the time, opted for internal selection rather than a public final. The selection process was fraught with problems before the last-minute announcement of singer and song was made.
