Romuald Figuier (born on 5 May 1941) is a French singer aka Romuald.

He represented Monaco in the 1964 Eurovision Song Contest with "Où sont-elles passées" and finished 3rd.

Five years later he participated again, this time for Luxembourg, but his "Catherine" only reached 11th place.

His third attempt, representing Monaco again, in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with "Celui qui reste et celui qui s'en va". was 4th.

Romuald represented Luxembourg in the VIII International Song Festival in Sopot, Poland, in August 1968, reaching third place in international competition with the theme Rien n'a changé.

In February 1973, Romuald represented France with Laisse-moi le temps in the XIV International Song Festival in Viña del Mar, Chile, where he finished 2nd and got the prize for the Best Singer. Some years later, Paul Anka bought the rights of the song from the authors (Jourdan/Caravelli), composed lyrics in English and gave it to Frank Sinatra, who made it famous all over the world as Let me Try Again.
