#BIRTHDAY: Anna Vissi from Greece is 68 today As you’ll know, there have been 69 contests. So that means 69 home entries. They’re always interesting songs for a variety of reasons. Are you excited yet? Today’s birthday girl Άννα Βίσση/Anna Vissi was the home entrant in 2006, but […]
#BIRTHDAY: Alan Sorrenti from Italy is 75 today We sometimes wonder why some countries seem to have this love/hate relationship with our favourite TV show. Money aside, some places don’t participate every year. Instead they like to pick and choose. Such is the case with our friends in […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paola from Switzerland is 75 today Our friends in Switzerland are in a curious situation. They have lots of languages to choose from, and they can confuse the average casual viewer by entering in a tongue we don’t always expect. Today’s birthday girl Paola Felix (née Paola […]

#BIRTHDAY: Johnny Logan is 70 today Legend is a term bandied around all too easily in this day and age. Someone can get a maximum from [insert country here] because they used a line in that country’s language, and they get branded a legend. In 1987, history happened, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Katja Ebstein from Germany is 79 today There is an elite bunch of people out there who have taken part more than once. It’s as if they can’t get enough of the Eurovision drug. And I don’t mean Ibuprofen. But that elite club has advanced membership for […]
