#BIRTHDAY: Sarbel from Greece is 39 today Our friends in Greece were, to be fair, a country with very little success during the 20th Century. Everything changed in Copenhagen, and that win suddenly came within reach. As we know, Helena Paparizou eventually pulled it off, and a crop […]
#BIRTHDAY: Johnny Logan is 66 today Legend is a term bandied around all too easily in this day and age. Someone can get a maximum from [insert country here] because they used a line in that country’s language, and they get branded a legend. In 1987, history happened, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lill Lindfors is 80 today The last two days we’ve had ladies from Sweden in this slot. And guess, what, here comes another one. Flickorna tar över, as they say in sunny Växjö. Now, Kikki and Sahlene could only manage a pitiful third in their respective contests, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sahlene is 44 today Yesterday we had a home entrant. Today we have another one. And in a curious twist, even though she was a home entrant, she was also a false-flagger, from the country we concentrated on yesterday. Confused? You should be. OK, OK, today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kikki Danielsson is 68 today It’s home entrant time again. When you look through the years, several nations have had more home entrants than others – obviously. These may have been because their country won the previous year, or maybe because their country picked up the baton […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paul Harrington is 60 today What’s your favourite type of song? Those about falling in love? Those about falling out of love? Or something else? Today’s song is in the ‘something else’ category, even though it’s a bit of falling in love. It’s more about nostalgia, and […]
ESC2020: Preview party time Even though there will be no Eurovision Song Contest in 2020, it doesn’t stop the fans around Europe (and Australia) getting together to pick their favourites. Renowned fan David Elder organises one of the most infamous parties of the year, and due to social […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kurt Calleja from Malta is 31 today Who doesn’t want to see Malta win? We know a contest on the Mediterranean’s happiest rock will be a memorable affair. There will be warmth, sun, laughter, and maybe even a presidential appearance or two during the fortnight. What could […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tony Wegas from Austria is 55 today There’s an exclusive club. Well, yeah, there are lots of exclusive clubs. But today’s exclusive belongs to those people who did back-to-back appearances in our favourite TV show. We can name plenty – Lena, Jedward, Val Monetta – all illustrious […]
#BIRTHDAY: Engelbert from the UK is 84 today Eurovision is a young person’s game. Or is it? People of all ages from 11 to, well, unknown, despite a certain presenter in 1987 telling us about the rising stars taking part. Our friends in the UK are amongst those […]
