#BIRTHDAY: Lena Philipsson from Sweden is 55 today Now we know a certain country with a blue and yellow flag has excelled in our favourite TV show. You may even think they could win this coming year. And no, I’m not talking about Palau. The truth is that […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jari Sillanpää from Finland is 55 today It’s opening song time again. And not just any old opening song. Oh no. This was has a special place in Eurovision history. It was the first song in the first semi-final in the host country. Yes, there have been […]
BIRTHDAY: Knut Anders Sørum from Norway is 44 today Yesterday we had a winner. But as we know our favourite TV show is a competition, and for every winner, someone has to prop up the other end of the table. The song that comes last can sometimes be […]

BIRTHDAY: Piero Esteriore from Switzerland is 42 today It can be nice to be the first at something. If you’re Lys Assia, for example, no-one can take that first ever contest win away from you. If you’re Céline Dion, no-one else has won dressed as a shuttlecock. I […]
