#BIRTHDAY: Ramón from Spain is 40 today

We will soon have a new winner of the Eurovision Song Contest. Who will it be? One of the lucky qualifiers from a semi-final? Or the defending country? Or one of the Big Five?

In other news, today’s birthday boy is Ramón del Castillo Palop. He sang in the very first Grand Final that had been preceded by a semi-final in the same city. An auspicious distinction to have. And he finished 10th, which is a finishing position we’re sure Spain would kill for these days.
