BIRTHDAY: Jørgen Olsen from Denmark is 69 today I’ve given you a couple pf days of songs that didn’t quite make the grade in their respective contests. I’m changing that today with one that did slightly better. So better in fact, this song actually won. It was much […]
BIRTHDAY: Alfred García from Spain is 22 today You want an up to date song? Do you? Really? Something that still has the shine on it? In other words, a song from 2018? Well you’re in the right place. Do you remember Lisbon? That nicely warm city with […]
BIRTHDAY: Rykka from Switzerland is 33 today Eurovision isn’t all about winning. That’s because these days for every winner there are around 40 losers. And just because you’re a loser, you’re still privileged to have been on the Eurovision stage anyway. With all loser, erm, non-winners, someone has […]
SWEDEN: Tommy Nilsson from Sweden is 59 today There’s a core of people out there who believe that a certain country can do no wrong. You know the thing, a person could read out the phone book on stage and still make the top five. In other news, […]
BIRTHDAY: Katja Ebstein from Germany is 75 today It’s trier time again. And what a trier we have today. There have been others, but no-one else has performed in three contests, and finished either second or third every time. That’s quite a claim to make, and who’s to […]
BIRTHDAY: Molly Sterling from Ireland is 21 today We like today’s birthday girl, and not just because she’s Irish. Some of us went on a boat trip with her, and chewed the fat for hours. It was a defining moment in 2015. It’s apt that the day Ireland […]
BIRTHDAY: Morena from Malta is 35 today We all know that Eurovision should be a family affair. Yes, most of the fans are men, but there’s nothing to stop families settling down on a Saturday evening. So if it’s for a family audience, are there any subjects that […]
BIRTHDAY: Amina from France is 57 today There are songs that become classics for various reasons. They could be winners. They could be insanely bad. Or it could be by accident. Back in 1991, you could argue we were in a very chaotic contest. Chaos from a presenter. […]
BIRTHDAY: Søren Bundgaard from Denmark is 63 today. We often discuss the idea of a gimmick on here. Sometimes they work, like a job lot of waving cats. Sometimes not, in the case of a giant apricot stone. Of course, the gimmick doesn’t have to be inanimate. Today’s […]
BIRTHDAY: Anmary from Latvia is 39 today A song about yourself can sometimes be a good thing. It tells people about you, and lets them get to know what makes you really tick. Of course, there’s a fine line between telling them interesting snippets about yourself, and boring […]
