He was asked to record "LA en Olympie", the official Belgian song for the 1984 Summer Olympics.
In 1984, Zegers's song "Avanti la vie" was chosen as the Belgian representative in the 29th Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 5 May in Luxembourg City. "Avanti la vie" scored 70 points to finish in fifth place of 19 entries.
