#BIRTHDAY: Oddrun Valestrand from Norway is 51 today We often pick members of duos, as they we know they can provide a bit of variety. Today, we pick a member of a trio. Yes, when they perform you get three for the price of one. What could be […]
#BIRTHDAY: Gary Lux from Austria is 66 today What was the best contest of all time? Yes, it was 1985. It’s been scientifically proven*. So any act that took part in that contest in Göteborg should be very proud of themselves. After all, when Lys Assia is the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tina Karol from Ukraine is 40 today Who doesn’t love a good thigh-slapper of a song. It’s more than just plain old Schlager. A good old banger that will fill a dance floor, even if the lyric isn’t the most profound in the world. A thigh-slapper with […]
#BIRTHDAY: Suzy from Portugal is 45 today Luck plays a huge part in our favourite TV show. Who gets through from a semi-final depends on who you’re lucky enough to get in your semi-final. But the unluckiest place to finish in a semi-final isn’t last – it’s eleventh. […]

#BIRTHDAY: Lena Philipsson from Sweden is 59 today Now we know a certain country with a blue and yellow flag has excelled in our favourite TV show. You may even think they could win this coming year. And no, I’m not talking about Palau. The truth is that […]
#BIRTHDAY: Stefan Filipović from Montenegro is 38 today The semi-finals are a curious thing. Draw is everything if you have to compete in one. It’s true that ten songs will qualify, which give you a better than average chance of making it through. But it does help if […]
