#BIRTHDAY: Renata Dąbkowska from Poland is 53 today We mainly pick soloists and duo to celebrate birthdays, but today we’re celebrating a member of a band. They have mixed success, and it was probably better in past times when they actually played their own instruments, rather than pretending […]
#BIRTHDAY: Imaani from the UK is 53 today A new year, with a whole new set of opportunities to get on. We know that in May someone will win the Grand Prix of our favourite TV show. In the meantime, we get oodles of national finals to come. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Charlie from Hungary is 77 today What was it that drew you into Eurovision? The costumes? The glorious melodies? For us, it was the languages. Where else could you have heard someone using Hebrew, Portuguese or Finnish to get a message across? Of course, many use English […]
#BIRTHDAY: Chiara from Malta is 48 today Do you remember the 1990s? It was a fine decade when our favourite TV show moved in the general direction of getting bigger and bigger. A certain country returned in that decade, after a 16 year absence. Can you guess which […]
#BIRTHDAY: Gunvor from Switzerland is 50 today Imagine how you’d feel. You’re on the Eurovision stage, you’re giving it everything, and things don’t go quite as well as expected. This is all after a long road which included winning your national final in December the previous year with […]
#BIRTHDAY: Mélanie Cohl from Belgium is 42 today Another day, another birthday, and today it comes from plucky little Belgium. You know the place – capital of Europe and made up of a conglomeration of various communities that sometimes speak to each other. Of course, with a country […]
#BIRTHDAY: Koit Toome from Estonia is 45 today It’s often nice when we see people having another go at winning European singing’s biggest prize. After all, plenty of people have tried on several occasions to become that song. Back in 1998, we saw today’s birthday boy Koit Toome […]
#BIRTHDAY: Vili Resnik from Slovenia is 60 today Is the free language rule a good thing? We have seen a clutch of good results where singers have stuck to their own tongue, but we know there’s one language that predominates above all others. Of course, in 1998 there […]
#BIRTHDAY: Michael Hajiyanni from Cyprus is 45 today If you know your history, our friends in the United Kingdom of stuff were once masters of our favourite TV show. They didn’t win every year, but they put up a good showing. They even hosted more then their share […]
#BIRTHDAY: Katarína Hasprová from Slovakia is 51 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 […]
