David Brown Carr presents the first of his monthly 2025 Eurovision Song Contest shows, ahead of the 69th contest in Basel, Switzerland’s third largest city, in May. Eurovision continues to be the world’s largest and most celebrated entertainment show, attracting hundreds of millions of viewers globally each year, including more than a few in Aotearoa.
The program features just a few of his favourite male artists in Eurovision from across the years. They include two talented 17 year olds from different hemispheres, a Norwegian carpenter with an appreciative cousin, a Portuguese cantor whose heart was genuinely broken, a Belgian who could athletically sing from a horizontal position, a Swiss chanteur whose singing brought his grandfather to tears (hopefully, happy ones), a former child refugee from the Congo, and an Italian who only came third in 1958 but whose song is fondly remembered while the first and second place singers are long forgotten.
