"Papa Pingouin" (English translation: "Papa Penguin") was the Luxembourgish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980, performed in French by the French twin sisters Sophie & Magaly. ==First version== With music by prolific duo Ralph Siegel and Bernd Meinunger, who are normally associated with Germany as a composer-lyricist combination, the song is about the fantasy life of the title character - a bored penguin. The singers describe his desire to fly like a seagull and travel around the world, listing various places he visits in his imagination. The song ends with the penguin's realisation that life "on the ice floe" is not as bad as he had thought, so he "burns his suitcase" to signify that his desire to travel is over. Sophie & Magaly also recorded a German-language version of the song, "Papa Pinguin". The song was performed fourth on the night (following Greece's Anna Vissi And The Epikouri with "Autostop" and preceding Morocco's Samira with "Bitaqat Khub"). At the close of voting, it had received 56 points, placing 9th in a field of 19. It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1981 Contest by Jean-Claude Pascal with "C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Papa Pingouin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
