"Eloise" is a song in Swedish, written by Gert Lengstrand and Lasse Holm, and performed by Swedish "dansband" Arvingarna when it won the Swedish Melodifestivalen 1993 and finished 7th in the Eurovision Song Contest 1993. Sweden was one of the favourites to win. Curt-Eric Holmquist was the conductor. The highest set of points, 10, came from Belgium, Austria and Israel, which totally gave 89 points, giving a 7th place.

The song text describes a guy who wants to know if Eloise is more than a friend.
