#BIRTHDAY: Clodagh Rodgers from the UK is 73 today Did you know that there’s been a whole host of voting systems through the years. The current 12, 10 system has been in place a long time and has generally worked. But what did we do before 1975? Well, […]
BIRTHDAY: Umberto Tozzi is 68 today Let’s go back to the 1980s. A world of orchestras, big hair, big shoulders, but everything. And a regular supply of the same countries taking part year in year out. That doesn’t always mean it was a bad thing. Our friends in […]
BIRTHDAY: Jean Gabilou from France is 76 today France are good at Eurovision. Well, they have been in the past. And anyone can win our favourite TV show. And wouldn’t you love a contest in Paris? And that’s a lot of ‘ands’. We can always dream. But it’s […]
BIRTHDAY: Lenny Kuhr from the Netherlands is 70 today When you look at the Netherlands’ fortunes, you will see amongst it five wins. They had to wait 44 years between their last two, but the first three came in a 12 year spell. That’s impressive. Any country would […]
BIRTHDAY: Cezar from Romania is 40 today Stage performances come in all shapes and sizes. Some are just the singer, with backdrop, giving us a simple song. Others use cowbells, Alpen horns, costume changes, or even children (pre 1989). Today’s birthday Florin Cezar Ouatu tried a different tack. […]
BIRTHDAY: Ben Cramer from the Netherlands is 73 today The contest in the Netherlands is rapidly approaching, with songs aplenty being picked, a city getting ready, and all the fun, games and bafflement that will follow. With that in in mind, it’s time for another Dutch birthday. Maybe […]
BIRTHDAY: DQ from Denmark is 47 today Our favourite TV show can be a glamorous affair, and many people just tune in for the costumes. They must just like shiny things. Well that might explain a certain Ukrainian with a star on their head. Of course, there’s more […]
BIRTHDAY: Yulia Savicheva from Russia is 37 today One thing that can sometimes help your song along is a great bit of choreography. Some songs are crying out for it, where obviously others don’t. So a Eurovision stage can be that pinnacle if your a dancer. Today’s song […]
BIRTHDAY: Karoline Krüger from Norway is 50 today If you’re really into your contest, you’ll be watching all of the national finals, semi-finals and miscellaneous heats from around Europe as broadcasters pick their songs for Rotterdam. Some don’t bother asking the public, but some like a whole series […]
BIRTHDAY: Ana Rucner is 37 today It would be good to see certain countries come back to our favourite TV show. Not just those micro-states, but there are some larger ones that did well in the past, but now sit on the sidelines. It wasn’t that long ago […]
