#BIRTHDAY: Roman Lob from Germany is 35 today The Big Four/Five is a thing that has always divided opinion. Should they compete in the semi-finals with the rest or not? It’s true that certain broadcasters put more money in, but now it’s likely the contest may become more […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sebalter from Switzerland is 40 today Have any of you out there ever tried to take part in our favourite TV show? Are you a part-time musician who has a ‘proper’ job? Or have you been singing at bars and shopping malls for years, hoping to get […]
#BIRTHDAY: Guy Mardel from France is 81 today You know that thing when you’ve had enough of colour performances? So to redress that balance, here’s one in glorious black & white. No, don’t click ‘back’, you may be surprised. The tenth contest saw us in Naples, with a […]
#BIRTHDAY: Elina Born from Estonia is 31 today Woo-hoo! It’s duo time today. That delicious mix of two singers. Well, it’s delicious when they do work together. Or it could be a potential car crash. Either way, there’s usually at least one singer that works, even if the […]
