BIRTHDAY: Srbuk from Armenia is 26 today First to perform in a semi-final? Is that a good gig or not? On the plus side, you’re the first to get those rehearsals out of the way. On the minus side, if you don’t make it out of the semi-final, […]

BIRTHDAY: Roko from Croatia is 20 today Eurovision attracts singers both young and old. We’ve had nonagenarians on stage. And mere children. Well, not the children any more, but never forget our show’s history. Today we have a singer who was towards the younger end of the spectrum […]

BIRTHDAY: Miki from Spain is 24 today We mentioned that some countries have gone from mediocre participants to challengers to a victory. There are of course countries that have gone the other way. They try and try, but their broadcaster relies on past glories. It could be argued […]
