#BIRTHDAY: Géraldine Gogly is 79 today We love vintage here. There is more to Eurovision than someone clucking in ultra high definition. There were days when we had nothing more than respectable black & white, and an altogether more demure look. Today we go back to 1967, when […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sue Schell from Switzerland is 75 today Many people have trodden the boards more than once, some with aplomb, and some doing stuff we’d rather not talk about. And I’m not possibly going to mention singers from the world’s oldest republic. But today we have a lady […]
#BIRTHDAY: Céline Dion is 57 today For many performers, their three/six/nine/twelve minutes on the Eurovision stage is the highlight of their entertainment career. As nowhere else will they be seen by several hundred million people. But for others, Eurovision is a mere footnote. Today’s birthday girl Céline Marie […]
#BIRTHDAY: Pino Gasparini from Switzerland is 79 today It must he tough when you perform at a Eurovision Song Contest, knowing the guest of honour is there watching you. Not only that, but when the guest of honour won for your country, there must be a lot of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Rykka is 39 today Do you like it when we see people from outside Europe (or, since 2015, Australia), taking part in our favourite TV show? Do you want to see the best singers, wherever they’re from? Or should they just be European? Of course, non-Europeans have […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kniri Knaus from Switzerland is 80 today It’s an obvious fact that everyone has a birthday. But amongst our many many Eurovision performers are those that don’t get the limelight as much as others. It’s important we celebrate these people. As the whole circus is off to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sandra Studer-Simò from Switzerland is 56 today What to do with your life once you’ve been a Eurovision performer? Well, you could try again. But then you risk doing worse on your second attempt than your first. Or you go into songwriting. That means if things go […]
#BIRTHDAY: Henri Dès from Switzerland is 84 today Today we have an absolute classic. You won’t be able to argue with me. Mr Phil of this parish will send the boys round if you don’t think this should have won awards. But what is it? You might be […]
#BIRTHDAY: Daniela Simons from Switzerland is 65 today Our friends in Switzerland were the first winners of our favourite TV show – no, it wasn’t L*r**n after all. And their span of wins stretches over 68 years. Unlikely ever to be beaten. But in addition to three wins, […]
The new Eurovision season is now on us and during the build up to National Final Season and the Eurovision Song Contest 2025, we at Eurovision Ireland felt it would be timely to continue with our Here Today, Gone Tomorrow series , where we look at past Eurovision […]
