#BIRTHDAY: Diodato from Italy is 42 today As we know, there have been 67 contests. But if you count from 1956, you know that doesn’t quite add up. That’s because we all know what happened in 2020. No contest, but there was still a crop of songs. Many […]
#BIRTHDAY: Frances Ruffelle from the UK is 58 today Remember the United Kingdom of stuff? They regularly used to do rather well in Eurovision circles, until those pesky ‘New Europeans’ came along. They still come up with sparks of brilliance, but Europe doesn’t seem to think they have […]
#BIRTHDAY: Malik Harris from Germany is 26 today Some countries have such high hopes every year, and they might start to think Europe has it in for them. The occasional good result, but then year after year of ignominy. Take Germany for example. In 2022 they sent Malik […]
#BIRTHDAY: Christer Björkman from Sweden is 66 today That thing when you get to represent your country. It must be a feeling of such elation. But with that elation must come a sense of foreboding. What if you sing out of key? What if the juries/televoters like everyone […]
#BIRTHDAY: Alenka Gotar from Slovenia is 46 today Do you like it when popular music strays into the realm of classical music? It takes a special person to fuse them properly, and an even more special person to bring their talent to the Eurovision stage. Very special in […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kim Jackson from Ireland is 58 today We love it when you keep coming back here. We hope you pay special attention to some of the birthdays, and even might like some of the choices. We’ve gone west today. Very west. To another singer who had a […]
#BIRTHDAY: Mickey Joe Harte from Ireland is 50 today Do you ever feel for those countries who were once the ones to watch, but are now struggling a little? We can all think of them, if we go back far enough. Yes, things do move on, but it’s […]
#BIRTHDAY: The Kessler Twins from Germany are 87 today As you’ll know, our favourite TV show was originally a vehicle for soloists. However, the duos soon came along. Were they a good idea? Well, among those duos were that curious thing – twins. We’ve had a few sets […]
#BIRTHDAY: Adrian Lulgjuraj from Albania is 43 today Don’t you just love our favourite TV show for its masses of different styles? You can have good old Scandi-Schlager, followed by good old Adriatic ballad, followed by something completely insane. There’s something for everyone. Some styles feature more than […]
#BIRTHDAY: Katri Helena from Finland is 78 today Do you ever see a performer and think “they have class”? That performer who doesn’t need to try. They have a stage presence, and have the audience in the palm of their hand. They may not win, but they are […]
