#BIRTHDAY: Thérèse Steinmetz from the Netherlands is 92 today If you were a performer at a Eurovision Song Contest, when would you like to perform? First, to get it out of the way (and get to the free bar), or later on, once the crowd were warned up […]
#BIRTHDAY: Géraldine Gogly is 79 today We love vintage here. There is more to Eurovision than someone clucking in ultra high definition. There were days when we had nothing more than respectable black & white, and an altogether more demure look. Today we go back to 1967, when […]
#BIRTHDAY: Raphael from Spain is 81 today It must be galling when your country wins, and you went and performed for them the year before that win. Obviously, there have been occasions where a country has won (at least) two years running. It must have been even worse […]
#BIRTHDAY: Noëlle Cordier from France is 80 today Your eyes won’t be deceiving you today. Yes, it’s fun and games in black & white. But don’t let that put you off. Some of the songs from those monochrome days are easily as good as some we get nowadays. […]
