BIRTHDAY: Nadine Beiler from Austria is 30 today Some countries have had a patchy relationship with our favourite TV show. Take Italy for example. They took over a decade out, and have been pushing for a win since. Then there are our friends in Austria. It’s been a […]
We mentioned yesterday about whether certain countries could host our favourite TV show, and the headache some broadcasters may face if they ever won. The Mediterranean’s happiest rock has never hosted the big ESC, but they do have two JESCs under their belt. There are a lot of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aliona Moon from Moldova is 31 today We know that anyone can win our favourite TV show, whether it’s that Nordic country that many fans have as their default 12 points, or whether it’s that outsider that captures the zeitgeist before sinking back into obscurity. But have […]
#BIRTHDAY: Silje Vige from Norway is 36 today Can you imagine how it feels if you’re closing a contest. And not just closing any old contest, but closing the biggest contest the world had ever seen at the time. And imaging doing all of this if you were […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lena from Germany is 29 today The 2020 Eurovision season is over. Or at least would have been over, had it happened on Saturday. But birthdays go on. For some birthday at this time of year, we might still have been in a Eurovision season. Is it […]
BIRTHDAY: Merethe Trøan from Norway is 50 today Do you remember the old days? When the contest was all done and dusted in one night, and none of these new Europeans were able to do their thing? Well 1992 was probably the last ‘old’ contest as we know […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ott Lepland from Estonia is 33 today It’s always good when a singer’s birthday comes along whose song is a personal favourite. And when it’s perhaps a Baltic song, even better. And it comes from an excellent year. Estonia has only had one win so far, but […]
#EDITORIAL: Shine a light As usual, the devoted Eurovision fan community will be picking apart what happened on the evening of Eurovision Day. Except, it was no normal Eurovision Day (is there ever?). In place of the usual riotous cavalcade of quality song, we had a pared down […]
#BIRTHDAY: Can Bonomo from Turkey is 33 today It’s always sad when a country decides to sit out our favourite TV show. And today’s sad enough, when our favourite TV show isn’t actually taking place at all in its usual form. We had a now-absent country yesterday, and […]
#BIRTHDAY: The TWiiNS from Slovakia are 34 today Two birthdays for the price of one. Always a bonus, don’t you think? But as you’ll gather, a fair number of twins have taken part in our favourite TV show. There is always this fascination with twins, whether they’re tumbling […]
