#IRELAND: A word from our friends at OGAE Ireland OGAE Ireland is the Irish national club, and with over 500 individual members, we are one of the fastest-growing national clubs within the OGAE network. Proportionally we are the largest club in Europe. OGAE Ireland was born out of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Dickie Rock from Ireland is 86 today We all like trailblazers. But what about those who were – maybe – one year too late to be one? Their achievement shouldn’t be overlooked, even though many are likely to. Our friends in Ireland first exercised their Eurovision vocal […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nicky Byrne from Ireland is 44 today There’s a lot to be said for the selection process to choose a song for our favourite TV show. What’s the right formula? Do you go for an internal selection? Or do you let Joe/Josef/Jozef/Giuseppe public decide? Obviously, this year, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kobi Marimi from Israel is 31 today Not so long ago, there had never been any Eurovision singers’ birthday of note (that we knew of) on this date, and then two came along at once. We celebrated one last year, so it’s the other one’s turn. Today’s […]
#BIRTHDAY: Charlotte Perrelli from Sweden is 48 today One of the golden rules of our favourite TV show is this: If you win, leave it at that. You’ve reached the pinnacle, so don’t try again. It’ll end in tears. Unless you’re Seán Sherrard. Cast your mind back to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Corinna May from Germany is 52 today Eurovision, as we know, attracts triers. Those ones who keep coming back. They’re either proper fans, they have a genuine desire to sing before a massive audience, or they have nothing better to do when their agent offers them a […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paola from Switzerland is 72 today Our friends in Switzerland are in a curious situation. They have lots of languages to choose from, and they can confuse the average casual viewer by entering in a tongue we don’t always expect. Today’s birthday girl Paola Felix (née Paola […]
#BIRTHDAY: Slavko Kalezić from Montenegro is 37 today Eurovision is full of characters. Some of them we don’t mind seeing after the curtain goes down. Some of them are just plain annoying. I’ll leave it to you to decide which category today’s birthday boy falls into. He had high […]
#BIRTHDAY: Martin Stenmarck from Sweden is 50 today Hold onto your hats! I’ve picked a birthday from Sweden today. Are you really excited? Could it be one of your favourites? Or not? Well as I sometimes say, every song ever performed on a Eurovision stage has fans. Some […]
#BIRTHDAY: David D’Or from Israel is 57 today There’s a song that contains the lyric “On a cloudy day”. It almost invites three dots after it, where you can fill in your own conclusion. On a cloudy day… you can see Carola’s wind machine. For example. Actually, today’s […]
