#BIRTHDAY: 19 Jan – Lena Philipsson from Sweden is 60 Now we know a certain country with a blue and yellow flag has excelled in our favourite TV show. You may even think they could win this coming year. And no, I’m not talking about Palau. The truth […]
#MALTA: And the winner is… The Mediterranean’s happiest rock are enthusiastic participants in the Eurovision Song Contest. And as in many previous years broadcaster PBS had a two-stage national final. The semi-final whittles 18 songs down to 12 (yes, really), and this dirty dozen did their best. But […]
#MOLDOVA: And the winner is… Moldova have returned to the Eurovision – and we’re glad they have! Broadcaster TRM went big and had their national final in the Chişinau Arena. Sixteen acts went into competition, but of course there was only one winner. After the usual combination of […]

#BIRTHDAY: 11 Jan – Marko Bošnjak from Croatia is 22 Country after country is looking for that elusive win. But what is it that pushes your song over that finishing line first? Dancing? Tune? Or that killer lyric? If you wanted an interesting lyric in Basel’s fair city, […]
#BIRTHDAY: 10 Jan – Samira from Morocco is 68 f you were the only person ever to represent your country, how would you feel? Would you want your country to send participate again, which would sully your unique record? Or would you be happy that you’re unique? There […]
