#BIRTHDAY: Katja Ebstein from Germany is 79 today There is an elite bunch of people out there who have taken part more than once. It’s as if they can’t get enough of the Eurovision drug. And I don’t mean Ibuprofen. But that elite club has advanced membership for […]
#BIRTHDAY: Clodagh Rodgers from the UK is 77 today Did you know that there’s been a whole host of voting systems through the years. The current 12, 10 system has been in place a long time and has generally worked. But what did we do before 1975? Well, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Serge Lama from France is 81 today France. A country with a very illustrious history in our favourite TV show. Five wins under their belts, four of them occurring under no longer used scoring systems. That is because back in 1971 everything changed. A new voting structure, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Joe Grech from Malta is 90 today Every now and then a song comes along that is just legendary. It could be for one of several reasons. It could be a big winner, a début entry, or one that just has fine costumes or choreography. Today’s song […]

#BIRTHDAY: Peter Reber from Switzerland is 74 today There are some classic songs around and people argue about them. Today’s IS a classic. Go on, challenge me if you dare! The sharp-eyed amongst you will quickly spot that there are three people on stage today. The birthday boy […]
#BIRTHDAY: Serge from the Netherlands is 77 today Do you like a duet? One of those things where you get two voices working in perfect harmony. Or maybe where the two protagonists try to out-sing each other. We all know it happens. In 1971, Eurovision was just starting […]
#BIRTHDAY: Monique Melsen from Luxembourg is 72 today We often mention those false-flaggers that come and go each year. You wonder why some countries use them, but then there are others that are more understandable. Our friends in Luxembourg took part 37 times before they hung up their […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tonicha from Portugal is 76 today In just over two months from now, it’s possible that you’ll be somewhere in southern Europe. Somewhere where the pasta, chianti (chianti, chianti, chianti, chianti, chianti, chianti) and the like flow freely. Will you be there? To celebrate the Latin vibe […]
