Every Eurovision song to chart in New Zealand
Songs from the Eurovision Song Contest have charted on the Kiwi music charts all the way back since 1960. The first being a cover of Domenico Modugno’s ‘Volare’ sung by Bobby Rydell.
Since then there have been a few connections between the contest and New Zealand. Back in the 1990’s a guitar instrumental version of Mocedades 1973 Spanish Eurovision entry ‘Eres Tú’ was used in an advertising campaign by the Bank of New Zealand.
More recently the Eurovision Song Contest has been broadcast in Aotearoa (the Māori name for New Zealand) from 2009 to 2011 by Triangle Stratos and from 2014 to 2016 via BBC UKTV.
