Digg this!   

Eurovision, Eurovision 2009, Belgium, Patrick Ouchene, CopycatExcited! It’s April now, and do you know what that means? It means that In just over a month and a bit it’ll be time to Eurovision! Ngggg!

Ready for another thrilling Eurovision fact of the day? OK, here goes – Morocco took part in the Eurovision Song Contest only once (1980). Unfortunately, their first attempt was not very successful. THRILLING!

Here’s the Eurovision 2009 profile of Patrick Ouchène, who’ll be representing Belgium

Belgium · Patrick Ouchène, Copycat

Eurovision fans may remember that Belgium’s entry last year was a pretty little tune sung in a made-up language that got absolutely nowhere. That’s why, for this year’s Eurovision, Belguim has tried the exact opposite. Copycat by Patrick Ouchène is a) sung in English and b) terrible. Therefore, using the same logic as the Belgians, it’ll win Eurovision. Unless anyone watching has ears. Which many of them will. So it won’t. Patrick Ouchène’s schtick is that he’s an Elvis Presley impersonator, and in Copycat he seems to be claiming that he invented being Elvis Presley before Elvis Presley and that Elvis Presley is stealing his soul even though he’s dead. At least that’s what we think he’s singing – have you ever tried to decipher a Belgian Elvis impersonator going at full tilt? Impossible.

Tomorrow: Bosnia & Herzegovina!
