I’m a Eurovision Song Contest fan, though I only came to it in the last few years, so I have a ton of good songs for this question!

ESC 2021

• SHUM by GO_A (Ukraine) was my winner for that year.
• Zitti E Buoni by Maneskin (Italy) was the actual winner and launched them to international success. They are on the US radio now too.
• Voy a Quedarme by Blas Canto (Spain) is very pretty. I DO speak Spanish, but y’all might dig it.

ESC 2022

• Brividi by Mahmood & Blanco (Italy)
• Trenulețul by Zdob şi Zdub & Frații Advahov (Moldova) is some of the most fun music I’ve ever heard.
• Saudade Saudade by MARO (Portugal) is partly in English but entirely beautiful.
• In Corpore Sano by Konstrakta (Serbia) was one of my top songs this year. Her odd stage/video performance really makes it.
• Stefania by Kalush Orchestra (Ukraine) was the winner this year, only partly because of the invasion. It was probably in most people’s top 3 anyway, and it got such a huge percentage of the votes that it really skewed the rest of the results. (Fun fact, the flautist/lead in this song is the same flautist from SHUM in 2021)

ESC 2023

• Cha Cha Cha by Käärijä (Finland) is a TREMENDOUS bop. It’s so catchy. As he was touring around before the actual semi-finals he lost his trademark lime green jacket, and fans made and brought replacements to shows for him until it was found.
• Mama ŠČ! by Let 3 (Croatia) is beyond weird but really catchy. They’re the most charismatic artists ever to fake pooping themselves during an interview.
• Ai Coração by Mimicat (Portugal) is fun and has a kind of old school vibe.

ESC 2024 is in National Finals season now, where each country chooses their entry, usually with a reality show contest. The semi-finals are 7 and 9 May and the Finals will be on 11 May. You can stream on Peacock, or hop on a VPN and watch the live feed from Sweden or Denmark or somewhere.
