Eurovision Song Contest 2025 - Favourites to take the Glass Microphone

Celebrating Swedish culture, KAJ take to the stage with their song ‘Bara Dada Bastu’ and are the favourites to win the competition. Having breezed through the semi finals and come out on top of several public votes in the build up to the competition, it is the catchy nature of the song and imaginative video that means it has captured the imagination of the public.

Louane represents France in Basel, with her song ‘Maman’. This song was first introduced at half-time of the Six Nations tie between France and Scotland, and it seems to have gone down very well with the voting public.

A household name in her home country, Louane has been releasing hits for some time, and the mood is high that her experience will help to elevate her performance to top spot.

Claude represents the Netherlands with their hit ‘C’est La Vie’. In a strange twist, the song that the Dutch have chosen to represent them will be sung entirely in French…

Claude has made a name for himself before Eurovision, producing the single ‘Ladada’ which has received over 57 million streams worldwide. Claude was also ranked ‘Best artist of The Year’ by Qmusic.

A small Mediterranean island with a proud Eurovision pedigree, Malta takes to the stage with a hit that has already gone viral before this years competition has even begun.

‘Serving’ by Miriana Conte will represent the nation this year, and with her pop pedigree reaching number one in the domestic airplay charts for her home country, she will be out to upset the applecart.
