#BIRTHDAY: Martin Vučić from North Macedonia is 38 today Who, among the list of countries that have never won, would you like to see win? And why? Is it because they have had good songs in the past? Is it because they have decent food and drink? Is […]
#BIRTHDAY: Omar Naber from Slovenia is 39 today Many people can claim to have a unique record in our favourite TV show. It could be their country’s only winner. Or the only person to win twice as a performer. More often – probably – are people who share […]
