"Moustache" is a song by French trio Twin Twin. It was chosen to represent France at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 in Denmark.[1] It finished last in the final with 2 points.

Controversy

The song was accused of plagiarism because the melody heavily resembles "Papaoutai" by Belgian singer Stromae.[2]

Music video

A music video for the song was released on 17 March 2014. It features the group as contestants on a game show, with lead singer Lorent desperately wanting to win a moustache in the competition. The video was directed by Guillaume Coulpier of Extermitent Production.[3][4]
