Since bringing Italy their first Eurovision win in over 30 years, Måneskin have become something of a global sensation, topping the charts not only in Europe, but further afield in the United States and Australia. Måneskin’s cover version of “Beggin'” is still charting in the United States, and currently sits at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100, whilst “I Wanna Be Your Slave” is at number 14 on Billboard’s Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart.
After winning Eurovision in 2019, Duncan Laurence took “Arcade” to the top of the charts across Europe, and in the United States, where the song peaked at number 2 on Billboard’s Euro Digital Song Sales Chart. Arcade saw something of a resurgance in late 2020 and early 2021, when the song became very popular on TikTok. This resulted in over 200 million streams on Spotify, a return to the U.K. charts at number 29 and becoming the first Eurovision act since Gina G in 1996 to make the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
