#BIRTHDAY: 23 August – Roberto Bellarosa is 32 We all want our own country to succeed. And we often want other countries to succeed too. It could be because they enter the music you like year in year out. It could be because they’re an underdog. It could […]
#BIRTHDAY: 22 August – Jasmine from Finland is 50 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 […]
#BIRTHDAY: 21 August – Lukas Meijer is 38 Time for a false flagger. It shouldn’t make any difference whether you’re singing for your own country or another one. However some countries have permeated the general fabric of Eurovision more than others. Our friends in Poland are still looking […]

#BIRTHDAY: Frédéric Etherlinck from Belgium is 58 Do you often wonder what happens to Eurovision singers once they’ve done their stuff on that stage. We know some become real musicians or politicians, or all-round media personalities. But then there are others. Today’s birthday boy Frédéric Etherlinck (né Frédéric […]
#BIRTHDAY: 9 August – Gjon Delhusa from Hungary is 73 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 so. And then there’s another club with only four members. In 1993 and […]
