#BIRTHDAY: Pastora Soler from Spain is 47 today Do you feel for those countries that haven’t won for a long time? Do you will them to win regardless of the song they enter? Or have they just been unlucky at times? Our friends in Spain haven’t won since […]
#BIRTHDAY: Freddy Quinn is 94 today It’s good to remember our roots. Yes, the 1950s may be an increasingly further distance away, but it’s where our favourite TV show started, and set good foundations. So let’s go back to that first contest in sunny Switzerland, one midweek May […]
#BIRTHDAY: Marcin Mroziński from Poland is 40 today Are you a fan of those Eurovision performers that make capital out of their appearance on the big stage? Being a Eurovision performer put someone in a small club, and they will (nearly) always have a fan base with us. […]
BIRTHDAY: Vânia Fernandes from Portugal is 40 today You want a cracker of a song? One that has everything? Power? Emotion? Wind machines? Wafty dresses? Marzipan? Well, maybe not the marzipan, but look no further. Still intrigued? Well today’s song comes from that breed that everyone wants to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Justine Pelmelay from the Netherlands is 67 today Eurovision singers come from ethnicities far and wide. They’re not just of European, Israeli or Australian ancestry.

#BIRTHDAY: DJ Balthazar from Bulgaria is 48 today We recently featured a musician who, whilst didn’t sing a note, bowed her way to victory. Today, we have another one of that category who often get overlooked – the DJ. DJs come in many forms. Some dress as astronauts, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Joci Pápai from Hungary is 44 today Eurovision these days is all about English, isn’t it? No other language gets a look in, does it? English is always the way forward. It wasn’t necessarily the case in 2017, and non-English songs have now won two of the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lisa Angell from France is 57 today You may think that when Portugal won, they had been mightily unlucky to only win at its 376th attempt. Well I guess they have, but now the most appearances without a win honour lies with Malta and Iceland – depending […]
#BIRTHDAY: Fionnuala Sherry is 63 today We like to celebrate people who do the singing at our favourite TV show. But not everyone who makes a name for themselves is a singer. They could solely be a musician. And some musicians of note have graced those famous stages […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sasha Son from Lithuania is 42 today Another Thursday and another birthday, and it’s from our friends in Lithuania. As you’ll know, they often have an interesting selection process that seems to last some 51 weeks. Or is that just how it feels? This year’s paid dividends, […]
