Für alle (English translation: "For Everyone") was the German entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1985, performed in German by Wind. It had beat Grun Grun Grun (English translation: "Green Green Green" by the singer Caro Pukke.

The song was performed tenth on the night (following Portugal's Adelaide with "Penso em ti, eu sei" and preceding Israel's Izhar Cohen with "Olé, Olé"). At the close of voting, it had received 105 points, placing 2nd in a field of 19.

The song is in the schlager style and is a tribute to all those who never give up hope, despite the pressures put on them by the world around them.

It was succeeded as German representative at the 1986 Contest by Ingrid Peters with "Über Die Brücke Geh'n".
