BIRTHDAY: Leonor Andrade from Portugal is 25 today I often mention those unlucky songs that were a year too early. The song the year later won, or did really well. So the year-too-early ones may just have paved the way. If you cast your mind back to Portugal’s […]
BIRTHDAY: Dino Merlin from Bosnia-Herzegovina is 57 today Is Eurovision a young person’s game? Well, the junior that happens in November definitely is. But do you have to be a fresh-faced and eager teenager or twenty-something to get the most out of our favourite TV show? Of course, […]
BIRTHDAY: Katarína Hasprová from Slovakia is 47 today Today is another in our occasional series of countries we wish were back in our favourite TV show. They may have legitimate reasons for not being there anymore, but it doesn’t stop us wanting them back. Our friends in Slovakia […]
BIRTHDAY: Kaija from Finland is 57 today OK, so I’ve gone for the same vintage year as yesterday. But 1991 was an interesting year when lots of songs got decent scores. And of course the EBU’s St Frank Naef had to employ a tie-break to pick a winner. […]

BIRTHDAY: Carola from Sweden is 53 today It’s that date. The one you’ve been waiting for. Sadly, it only comes around only once per year. It’s a Swedish participant’s birthday. One who’s taken part not once, not twice, but three times! If you hadn’t worked it out already, […]
BIRTHDAY: Alyona Lanskaya from Belarus is 34 today Some countries have had more success than others in getting out of the dreaded semi-finals. They can be bloodbaths. Fancied songs fall by the wayside and the unexpected get through. In 2013, our friends in Belarus hadn’t had much luck. […]
BIRTHDAY: Marlain from Cyprus is 41 today Does luck play a part in Eurovision success (or lack of it)? Can your position in the running order help your chances? Has a song been sunk by what was on around it? Back in 1999 we had a Swedish win. […]
BIRTHDAY: Teddy Johnson would have been 100 today It’s time for a bit of nostalgia. I jest of course, as many of you were not around in the 1950s. And even if you were alive, you may not have remembered the decade. There weren’t many songs, but some […]
