#BIRTHDAY: Serge Lama from France is 79 today France. A country with a very illustrious history in our favourite TV show. Five wins under their belts, four of them occurring under no longer used scoring systems. That is because back in 1971 everything changed. A new voting structure, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Hanne Krogh from Norway is 66 today Eurovision has had a lot of innovations over the years. Of course the most recent ones include the new voting structure and HD, but the changes go back for years. Can you imagine, for example, Eurovision songs without preview videos? […]
#BIRTHDAY: Massimo Ranieri from Italy is 70 today Our favourite TV has always attracted bigger names, who quite happily mix with those rising stars looking for their big break.

#BIRTHDAY: Marianne Mendt from Austria is 75 today We all know that some countries have a love/hate relationship with our favourite TV show. One or two in central Europe are currently taking a breather, and it seems to be a thing for that part of the world. Back […]
#THE REAL ME: Eurovision Memories from Dermot Manning We at Eurovision Ireland want to hear from you. Is there a song that really means something to you? Something that made you really fall in love with Eurovision? Something that you associate with a particular event in your life? […]
#BIRTHDAY: Clodagh Rodgers from the UK is 73 today Did you know that there’s been a whole host of voting systems through the years. The current 12, 10 system has been in place a long time and has generally worked. But what did we do before 1975? Well, […]
