#BIRTHDAY: Anna Maria Jopek from Poland is 52 today You must remember those debut performances that mark out a country from the rest. Like Serbia winning at their first attempt as an independent nation. Or Switzerland being the only other country to win on a debut. So after […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tanja Ribič from Slovenia is 54 today What style of song do you like best? Does it need costume changes, clucking, or maybe the odd penguin on stage? Or do you like a song just to be a song without all the bells and whistles? Today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Debbie Scerri from Malta is 53 today Everyone likes the winners of contests, but we all like those that try, try, and try again. Even if they don’t always quite get that illusive victory. I’m taking about Malta. It’s the Mediterranean’s happiest rock and will be there […]
#BIRTHDAY: Bettina Soriat from Austria is 55 today Eurovision likes a trier (to a degree anyway). Those unsung performers who often start as a backing singer and maybe, just maybe graduate to become the named act. It’s a rite of passage for some Norway’s Håvard Gryting and Fernandes […]

#BIRTHDAY: Kølig Kaj from Denmark is 50 today Rap. Is there a musical genre that divides opinion more? It’s always a higher risk style than, say, Schlager or the good old-fashioned ballad. No matter, it can be notable when we see rap at out favourite TV show. In […]
BIRTHDAY: Şebnem Paker from Turkey is 44 today The running order is always an interesting topic of debate. Is there a best spot to perform in if you want to win? Are there truly graveyard slots? Could a good song win wherever it appears in the running order? […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tor Endresen from Norway is 62 today That thing when you’ve tried for years to do something. And then when you get to do that thing you’ve been yearning for, you end up feeling disappointed. It’s happened to us all. It makes you wonder why you bother. […]
