Austria debuted at Frankfurt 1957 when Bob Martin’s ‘Wohin, Kleines Pony’ (‘Where, Little Pony?’) was the last to cross the line, finishing tenth in a field of 10.
It would take until 1966 for broadcaster Österreichischer Rundfunk (ORF) to win hands down when, on his third Contest participation, Udo Jürgens triumphed with the ballad Merci, Chérie (‘Thank You, Darling’).
A second Austrian victory came in 2014 courtesy of drag artist Conchita Wurst, who dedicated their win to ‘everyone who believes in a future of peace and freedom’, they continued: ‘We are unity and we are unstoppable!’
She later became one of the most passionate supporters of Austria’s third victor, JJ, who sailed to the top of the leaderboard with his opera-inspired anthem Wasted Love at Basel 2025.

Best winner of all time !!!
Eurovision was held in my country that year. We won in 2013 with The Olsen Brothers singing Fly On the Wings of Love. In 2014 Conchita Wurst appeared and the singing was brilliant. The win was really deserved and yes, it did have a sort of Bond feeling to it❤
One of masterpieces of Eurovision and it is a ballade…
The best thing to ever happen to Eurovision, and a lot of you STILL can't accept it. ❤❤
Всё ещё моя любовь в 2025 ❤
That was one of the best ESC songs
This is my 2nd favorite song,I love eurovision,she is my EuroQueen❤
😮😮😮 It's so AMAZING! I don't watch Eurovision when He won, but now I understand why. Voice is brilliant!
I'm from 2025 and it's still the one of my favorite winners performances
EPIC DIVA ❤❤❤❤GET OVER IT SPREAD LOVE
The people who criticize probably didn't understand the meaning of the song, it talks about her HIV status.
спустя годы стало очевидно, что она победила полностью заслуженно. это потрясающее исполнение отличной песни.
Who's here after JJ won? 🇦🇹❤️🔥
One of the best Performances ever.
