Which memorable Eurovision act are you?

You’re the Queen of Austria! Not the actual head of state, but you’d certainly have the people’s vote if you ran for it. Since winning Eurovision in 2014 with ‘Rise Like A Phoenix’, you’ve become an LGBTQ icon, visited the European Parliament, and even the United Nations. As a female figure with a beard, some people have found your identity hard to accept, but you’ve held your head high and laid it out simply for them: “I don't want to be a woman. I am just a working queen and a very lazy boy at home.” Well done, you’re unstoppable.

You’re one of only five UK acts to have won Eurovision in the competition’s history with Making Your Mind Up, and you did it all without smoke machines or fireworks. After some band in-fighting and legal battles over the act’s name, you may not be on the best of terms now, but you will always be remembered for your classic Eurovision skirt-rip. 1985 presenter Lill Llindfors, Lithuanian 2010 entry Inculto, and last year’s Serbian entry Bojana Stamenov, among many others, are all indebted to you.

Congratulations, you are the only heavy metal band and only Finnish act to win Eurovision, when the song Hard Rock Hallelujah gained a record-breaking 292 points in 2006. You’ve been rocking out in monstrous attire since 2002 and are still going today, updating your hellish masks and outfits for each new album. You may be musically unlike any other winner, but like any successful Eurovision act, you know a thing or two about theatrics.

Forget Eurovision, you are one of the most commercially successful acts in the history of pop. It’s unusual for a Eurovision performance to lead on to chart success, but you are one of the few bands who enjoyed continuous fame long after your win with Waterloo in 1974. You’ve topped international charts, sold hundreds of millions of records, and been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. You are proof that musicians can compete in Eurovision and also have serious, successful careers, not just as car salesmen or personal trainers, but in the music industry too.

Your auto-tune defying performance of Cry Baby in Riga in 2003 won you last place in the contest, and the dreaded total score of nul points. That year saw a record high of 26 entries, so this could be seen as the worst result in Eurovision history (although others have placed worse since). Your duo’s name (and matching blonde hair), implied you may be twins, giving the occasional lightly sexual dance move in your performance a distinctly awkward feel. But do not be disheartened. You may have been dropped from your record label, and split up within a month of the contest. But many years later, you appeared on the daytime game show Pointless Celebrities. Everything happens for a reason.
