"Macédomienne" (English translation: "My Macedonian Woman") was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1990, performed in French by Philippe Lafontaine.
The song was performed third on the night (following Greece's Christos Callow & Wave with Horis Skopo and preceding Turkey's Kayahan with Gözlerinin Hapsindeyim). At the close of voting, it had received 46 points, placing 12th in a field of 22.

The song is an ode to the "Macedonian woman" of the title, and the lyrics make it clear that it is the Republic of Macedonia from which the woman hails, rather than the region of Greece.

It was succeeded as Belgian representative at the 1991 Contest by Clouseau performing Geef Het Op.
