"A Matter of Time" is a song recorded by Belgian singer-songwriter Sennek, best known for representing Belgium in the Eurovision Song Contest 2018. Sennek co-wrote the track with Alex Callier and Maxime Tribèche. The song was officially released on 5 March 2018, one day before its scheduled release, as it was already leaked on YouTube.[1]

Eurovision Song Contest

[edit]

On 28 September 2017, Flemish broadcaster VRT announced Laura Groeseneken as the Belgian entrant at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 during the talk show Van Gils & gasten, aired on Één. It was later announced that Groeseneken will perform under her stage name Sennek.[2]

The song was initially scheduled to be released on 6 March 2018 but was eventually released one day earlier after it was leaked on YouTube.

Sennek's "A Matter of Time" competed in the first semi-final, held on 8 May 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal,[3][4] but did not qualify for the Grand Final.[5]
