MTV.com reports that Sara Nunes' "Simon can't sing" is a big hit in Finland.
As she puts it in the chorus, "Simon can't sing, Simon can't dance. He doesn't look cool, And he's not in a band. But he thinks he looks so hot when he dresses in black."
"American Idol" is shown on Finnish television, and there is also a home-grown "Finnish Idol."
