The Italian glam rock band have had three UK Top 40 singles and opened for the Rolling Stones since their win last year.

David added: “We would get about €20, enough to go to McDonald’s.” At least that’s how we saw it … it was our main topic of conversation when we were there, and ended up being the topic of the song because I always try to write about something that I’m actually living.” We were being super judged – for our makeup, nail polish and how we dressed – that it was hard to keep going,” said frontman Damiano David. A brief low point came when David was accused of snorting cocaine during the Eurovision final last year. It wasn’t so long ago that Måneskin were busking on the streets of Rome, performing for four hours straight even if only one person was watching. For the most part, Eurovision winners tend to be swiftly forgotten about.
