#BIRTHDAY: Sergio Dalma from Spain is 58 today As you’ll know, the rules of our favourite TV show impose a strict three minute on sing duration. It has been more in the past, but when one 1950s singer had a song that lasted in the region of five […]
#BIRTHDAY: Alma from France is 34 today Our friends in France have experienced the highs and lows of Eurovision lately. After nearly winning in 2021, they had less good fortune in 2022. Eurovision can be a very fickle beast at times. In 2017, France sent today’s birthday girl […]
