Sweden was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1987 with the song "Boogaloo", composed by Mikael Wendt, with lyrics by Christer Lundh, and performed by Lotta Engberg. The Swedish participating broadcaster, Sveriges Television (SVT), selected its entry through Melodifestivalen 1987.

The original lyrics of the song, including its title "Fyra Bugg och en Coca-Cola", with which it won the Melodifestivalen, were changed for Eurovision at the request of the European Broadcasting Union, as two trademarks were mentioned.
