#BIRTHDAY: Eugent Bushpepa from Albania is 38 today There’s an argument that some countries typically enter a certain type of song, probably sung by a certain type of singer. And I don’t mean a certain Sammarinese lady’s many attempts at Eurovision glory. Our friends in Albania often send […]
#BIRTHDAY: Daði Freyr from Iceland is 30 today Do you ever see social media posts telling us about ‘the real winner’? It’s clear that the ‘real winner’ is the one that gets the most points under the rules in place of the time. You might not like it, […]
