#BIRTHDAY: Mando from Greece is 57 today In a contest like Eurovision, it often happens that we get different songs with the same title. But a similar song title doesn’t always guarantee a similar finish. In 2003, we got the first Eurovision song with the title ‘Never let […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tix from Norway is 30 today Our friends in Norway have had their fair share of successes and the tribulations at our favourite TV show. Those wins have sometimes been runaway, but the less said about the lows the better. And there were high hopes in 2021. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Mélovin from Ukraine is 26 today If you want to get ahead, you need a showstopper of a song. It’s obvious, isn’t it. But how to stop that show? With a song that you can’t help falling in love with? Or with a bonkers stage show? Both […]
