Malta’s Eurovision entry “Serving” by Miriana Conte has captured international attention, with The New York Times listing the song as one of the favourites to win this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.

Originally titled “Serving Kant”, the track sparked controversy due to a play on words.

While “kant” means “singing” in Maltese, its phonetic similarity to an English vulgar term prompted Eurovision organisers to request a title and lyric change.

Despite the change, Conte retained the song’s bold spirit, replacing “kant” with vocalised sounds and renaming the track simply “Serving.”

The article highlighted how Conte, aged 24, delivered a “propulsive” performance that continues to resonate with fans.

Even with the lyrical revision, audiences often shout the original word during her live shows — a testament to the song’s popularity and rebellious charm.

Conte’s entry has made Malta a serious contender in this year’s competition, with bookmakers and international outlets now naming her a dark horse for the title.

Her blend of vocal prowess, striking stage presence, and bold messaging has reignited excitement for Malta’s Eurovision chances.

With growing buzz and global support, Malta’s long-awaited Eurovision win could finally be within reach.
