Damir is well known in the Croatian music scene and may well give the other Eurovision contestants a run for their money, as he has 16 years of professional singing under his belt.

His songs have also been some of the most listened to in his home country for the last few years and his singles are award-winning hits, including Sve u meni se budi, which became the number one hit song in Croatia, attracting five million YouTube views.

What is Croatia’s Eurovision 2020 song called?

Damir will be singing Divlji vjetre, which means "Wild Wind" in English. The track was written and composed by Ante Pecotić.

Whilst the lyrics are not yet available to see, judging by its English translation, we can hazard a guess that it will be a powerful number with a strong message.

Where did Croatia come in last year’s Eurovision?

Damir will have his work cut out for him if he wants to beat last year’s result of failure to qualify for the final and an overall position of 14^th place and 64 points.

Out of the 24 times that Croatia has performed at Eurovision, the country’s highest placing in the contest so far has been fourth place, which the nation achieved twice – in 1996 and 1999.

Does Damir dare to dash to the top?
