Irelande Douze Pointe : ウィキペディア英語版 | Irelande Douze Pointe
is a parody song by the puppet act Dustin the Turkey. The song was composed by Darren Smith and Simon Fine for the competition to select the Irish submission for the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. On February 23, 2008, it won against five other entries in Eurosong 2008, held at the University of Limerick. The song represented Ireland in the semi-finals of the song contest on May 20, 2008 in Belgrade, Serbia, but failed to qualify for the final. == Song's meaning == Despite the French song title, the lyrics of the song are mainly in English. The title refers to the Eurovision Song Contest's voting procedure, where all voting results are read in both English and French, and where a score of twelve (French: ''douze'') is the highest possible result. The voting procedure has become notorious over the years due to supposed geopolitical voting, especially in Eastern countries.〔 The word ''pointe'' is a misspelling because it is ''points'' in French, being a plurality of 12 points. ''Irelande'' is also misspelt as the French for Ireland is ''Irlande''.
