For the second year, the official ESC Top 250 was broadcast on EFR12, the French radio station. For the first time since 2021, Loreen returned to the top spot with “Euphoria”. While the full results of all 1700+ Eurovision entries can be found HERE, how did Ireland rank […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maxine from the Netherlands is 54 today Our friends in the Netherlands have had five wins. Yes, five. And they’ve had lots of non-wins too. It lots of guises. Soloists, groups singing in imaginary languages. And, of course, the odd duo. Today’s birthday girl Maxine (née Gonny […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jasmine from Finland is 48 today Eurovision always loves a good sing-a-long song. Those mumbly arty Swedish types have their place, but nothing can beat a jovial singer with a big hearty smile. And a guitar. OK, the guitar is an optional extra, but when you get […]
Today, the 2024 Summer Olympics conclude and we have added a Eurovision twist to the proceedings. We will be celebrating the best of Eurovision participating countries, ranked by their gold medal success at the Summer Olympics, up to and including Tokyo 2020. Ireland rank 51st overall – 11 […]
#BIRTHDAY: Gjon Delhusa from Hungary is 71 today We like looking at members of very exclusive clubs. There’s the double winner’s Club. That’s pretty exclusive. Then there’s the 2020-only Club. A little less sp. And then there’s another club with only four members. In 1993 and 1996 there […]
#BIRTHDAY: Amila Glamočak from Bosnia & Herzegovina is 58 today Are you a fan of a ballad? They can be more heartfelt than a banger, but they’re not everyone’s cup of tea. There are many out there that are darn good, and should be in people’s all time […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maja Blagdan from Croatia is 56 today We’ve said it before, but some Eurovision performers can’t get enough of it. Some stop when they’ve finally made it to the bit time. Some just keep going… Maybe stopping at one appearance is the way to go. Today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Constantinos from Cyprus is 47 today Do you like it when singers try several times? Sometimes they can win on a second attempt. Sometimes they don’t quite do as well as their first appearance. Some even come back after a win. Today’s birthday boy Κωνσταντίνος Χριστοφόρου/Constantinos Christoforou […]
#BIRTHDAY: Leon from Germany is 55 today Would you ever like to be the cause of a rule change? As we know, our favourite TV show often tweaks its rules. But these are not because of one person – they’re usually to change voting, or maybe due to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Elisabeth Andreassen is 66 today We have a real treat for you today. A legend of our favourite TV show. A massive name in singing circles, particularly in the Nordic world. And a former winner. And it’s definitely not Carola. Today’s birthday girl Elisabeth Gunilla Andreassen (née […]
