#ESC2023: EI Review Part 3 We at Eurovision Ireland like to review the songs in a contest, and this year is no exception. We’ve split the 37 songs over seven shows to give you our views. As last year, we’ll be scoring them out of 50. Can we […]
#BIRTHDAY: Marius Bear from Switzerland is 30 today Do you love a good lyric? Something that really makes you think? Something nicely profound maybe? Or are you more a fan of a ‘la la la’ school of authorship? In 2022, today’s birthday boy Marius Bear (né Marius Hügli) […]
#BIRTHDAY: Géraldine from Switzerland is 77 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, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Rykka is 37 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: Véronique Müller from Switzerland is 75 today Never forget your heritage. Yes, we know there are people out there who may think the Eurovision Song Contest only started in 2012. But it has a rich history going back nearly 70 years. In the early 1970s there was […]
#BIRTHDAY: DJ BoBo from Switzerland is 55 today If you’re a fan of the history of our favourite TV show, you’ll first know that there were contests before 2000. You’ll also know who won when. Take 1956 for example, when the late great Ms Lys Assia won. She […]
#BIRTHDAY: Barbara Berta from Switzerland is 59 today Contests come and go, and sometimes songs that you took an interest in seem to pass out of memory, even though they may have popular at the time. Back in 1997 – yes, there were contests in the 20th Century, […]
#HALLOWE’EN: Eurovision goes bump in the night Hallowe’en and Eurovision. Does it scare you? Do you tremble on 31 October when you get a sinister knock at your door? Are you relieved when you find out it’s only the local kids going trick-or-treating? Or do you leave the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Carole Vinci from Switzerland is 72 today Before the free language rule was re-introduced, when you were representing a country with a plethora of languages, it sometimes threw up some oddities. German speakers singing in Italian, Dutch speakers singing in French, English speakers singing in German. Our […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paola from Switzerland is 72 today Our friends in Switzerland are in a curious situation. They have lots of languages to choose from, and they can confuse the average casual viewer by entering in a tongue we don’t always expect. Today’s birthday girl Paola Felix (née Paola […]
