Not so long ago, the Hungarian broadcaster, MTV, announced that Mark Zentai would be representing Hungary at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song It’s Time to Party. However, it was discovered that the song had been used in Sweden and recorded by the Big Brother housemates in the Swedish version of the show. Although the lyrics had been changed, it was clear that the song had been available publicly well in advance of the 1st October 2008 the deadline. Then Zentai was withdrawn immediately.
After this illegal situation, MTV announced Katya Tompos instead of Mark Zentai. The song Magányos Csónak which is also a movietrack of Valami Amerika vol.1 would be participating in Moscow this year, but this time Katya’s music company, Sony BMG, announced that the singer will not be able to take part in the contest because of her theatre engagements, and Katya Tompos withdrew from the contest.
Today, MTV announced the third singer, Adok Zoltan, will be representing Hungary at the Eurovision Song Contest in Moscow this year. Adok will be singing Tanclepes which means Dance With Me on the stage.
