#BIRTHDAY: 30 June – Daði Freyr from Iceland is 34 Do you ever see social media posts telling us about ‘the real winner’? It’s clear that the ‘real winner’ is the one that gets the most points under the rules in place of the time. You might not […]
#BIRTHDAY: 29 June – Gitte Hænning is 80 Remember Germany? They win very occasionally and also finish near the bottom of the table? A country in the middle of Europe bordering lots of places? Well they don’t always win or finish badly. And they don’t always have a […]
#BIRTHDAY: 28 June – Tanja Ribič from Slovenia is 58 What style of song do you like best? Does it need costume changes, clucking, or maybe the odd penguin on stage? Or do you like a song just to be a song without all the bells and whistles? […]
#BIRTHDAY: 27 June – Petra Frey from Austria is 48 Sometimes when we’re picking a birthday song, it makes us feel old. We’ve been watching contests since 19xx so have seen a few acts in our time. And some of them are a lot older now than we […]

#BIRTHDAY: 23 June – Marie N from Latvia is 53 Do you like a cutting edge lyric? Especially one that people who might not be fans would pick up on. It’s a different matter when it’s looked at in context. The lyric “Ay ay ay ay ay ay…” […]
#BIRTHDAY: 22 June – Nika Kocharov from Georgia is 46 There are certain genres that often raise an eyebrow when they find their way into Eurovision. Schlager does well, and electronic dance music. And of course a quality banger. But then there are others… Today’s birthday boy ნიკოლოზ […]
#BIRTHDAY: 20 June – Kenny Lübcke from Denmark is 60 We love duos at Eurovision. And when there’s actually chemistry between the two protagonists, even better. We know that, sometimes, you can tell they’ve been thrown together and told to get on with it. Today’s birthday boy Kenny […]
