"Rock Me" was the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 1989, performed by Riva, representing Yugoslavia, the only time that the country won the contest. It was originally performed in Croatian, but the lead vocalist Emilija Kokić sang it in English during the winners' encore. The song's victory led to international awareness of Yugoslav and Croatian rock. Riva's frontwoman Kokić continued to appear in various shows but had no significant success after the 1989 victory. In 2022, The Independent named it 44th best Eurovision-winning song of all time.
