Queen Mum and the possibly future ESC Queen in a duet: JJ, Austria's hopeful at this year's 69th Eurovision Song Contest in Basel, has teamed up for a duet with Conchita, the legendary winner of 2014.

For the YouTube series by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) titled "Eurovision: A Little Bit More," JJ and Conchita recorded a mashup of their Eurovision Song Contest songs "Rise Like a Phoenix" and "Wasted Love" at the Vienna Theater Museum.

Eurovision Song Contest: Conchita Praises JJ

Available from 6 PM on Friday, the two artists thus combine their respective talents in one song. "It was simply out of this world," JJ expressed his excitement about the collaboration according to ORF: "I had goosebumps and we also had a real blast." In return, ESC Queen Mum also praised her potential successor: "His professionalism is impressive - and when he sings, it's as if time stands still. I would be incredibly proud if he could bring the Song Contest back to Austria."

JJ on Eurovision Song Contest Promo Tour in London and Madrid

To make this dream a reality, JJ is currently part of the extensive ESC promo tour. In Amsterdam, the countertenor already sang at the "Eurovision in Concert" format in front of thousands of Song Contest fans, and now he is heading to London. On Sunday (April 13), JJ will perform his "Wasted Love" at the "London Eurovision Party," followed by the "PrePartyES 2025" in Madrid on April 19. And then it's not long until the actual ESC in Basel. Here, the 23-year-old will perform on May 15 in the 2nd semi-final with starting number 6 to secure a final ticket for May 17. Then it will be clear whether Conchita can celebrate a successor.
