Brotherhood of Man is een Britse popgroep die vooral succesvol was in de jaren 70.
In 1976 wonnen ze voor het Verenigd Koninkrijk het Eurovisiesongfestival met Save your kisses for me. Dat liedje werd in 2005 verkozen tot een van de beste songfestivalliedjes en eindigde bij de verkiezing bij de laatste vijf tijdens de verjaardagsshow Congratulations. De groep kondigde op 24 december 2022 aan te stoppen met toeren. Eind september 2024 overleed zanger Martin Lee op 77-jarige leeftijd.[1]
