Buona sera Europa! Buon giorno Australia! This is Turin calling for the Jury Final of Eurovision 2022! 25 acts will compete tonight in order to impress the National Juries from each country and score as many points to win the Eurovision 2022 trophy! Eurovision Ireland’s own veteran Bogdan […]
As much as we love the Eurovision Song Contest, there is something in the old adage that some things just don’t translate very well. In a musical coming together of different countries and cultures, what sounds poetic and elegant in one language might not quite have the same […]
#ESC2022: Semi-final One predictions As you’ll know, we at Eurovision Ireland reviewed the 40 songs (plus one other) from this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. We gave each one a score out of 50. You can find our seven reviews on the Eurovision Ireland Youtube channel HERE. But what […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maggie MacNeal from the Netherlands is 72 today A host broadcaster never wants to win. They may tell you otherwise, but deep down they know that our favourite TV show is something that would get expensive if the hosts had it for a second – or even […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ronnie Tober from the Netherlands is 77 today It’s about time we went vintage again, just to show what today’s performers are following in the footsteps of. Those older songs weren’t all classics, but you can guarantee that every song will have at least one fan. Back […]

#BIRTHDAY: Duncan Laurence from the Netherlands is 28 today Anyone can win our favourite TV show. A number of countries had had dismal results before they won. You know who they are. And countries who won in the dim and distant past can surprise us all and win […]
#BIRTHDAY: Joan Franka from the Netherlands is 32 today You want to make an impression on a stage? Make your outfit memorable. Even more so if your song isn’t. It’s a golden rule. I’m being harsh. Today’s birthday girl Joan Franka (née Ayten Kalan) had a decent enough […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sieneke from the Netherlands is 30 today It’s no April Fool that some countries have probably done a lot worse than they’ve deserved to over the years. I’m thinking of those countries that perhaps didn’t win in a long long time. The one I have in mind […]
#BIRTHDAY: Bernadette from the Netherlands is 63 today Back in the day, when there was no free language rule, some took it upon themselves to bend the rules as much as possible. They were allowed a few phrases in other languages. If you did it right, you could […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ben Cramer from the Netherlands is 75 today Well, we finally got a contest in the Netherlands last year, and they put on a good show. Of course, the Dutch have been in the contest since the start, so have a very rich heritage in the show. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Milly Scott from the Netherlands is 88 today Trailblazer. It’s a word bandied around far too often, maybe not least by these birthday articles. But today we really do have a trailblazer. Someone who broke new ground in our favourite TV show. And someone we really should […]

#BIRTHDAY: Douwe Bob from the Netherlands is 29 today Funny how some coincidences come about. If you’re a fan of our favourite TV show, then you might have been variously pleased, disappointed or annoyed that you could or couldn’t get to the circus arrived in Rotterdam last May. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Linda Wagenmakers from the Netherlands is 46 today A prop is always a good thing to make your song stand out just that little bit more than the rest. The question is: what kind of prop do you use? It could be a big sparkly glitter ball. […]
