The Swiss Final was held on January 27th. There were meant to be 8 songs in the contest, but „Amour, on t’aime“ by Alain Morisod & Son Groupe was withdrawn as the group had recently split up – the song however would return in the 1982 Swiss Final. The winning song was chosen by the votes of 3 regional juries, a press jury and a jury of „experts“.
