#BIRTHDAY: Lise Darly is 42 today Those semi-finals are a brutal affair. The potential classic songs that fall by the wayside, meaning a possible winner has to watch from the sidelines. We can all name several. For those places that can’t get out of the semi-finals, it’s understandable […]
#BIRTHDAY: Gracia from Germany is 41 today Our friends in Germany haven’t had the most consistent of times of late. Yes, they’ve had one win in this Century, but also a few results that were not quite as good. As you’ll know, we’ve had two contests in Kyiv, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Luminița Anghel from Romania is 55 today Do you think that contests are coming and going quicker than ever? Yes, we’re now in October, but it doesn’t seem five minutes since Loreen won in Liverpool. It was in 2005 – yes, 18 years ago – that today’s […]
#BIRTHDAY: Selma from Iceland is 49 today It can be a curse having a second crack at Eurovision glory. If you do well first time round, you risk ruining that reputation when you make that second appearance. Today’s birthday girl Selma Björnsdóttir most famously made the long, long […]
#BIRTHDAY: Marian van de Wal from Andorra is 53 today We have some interesting matching of nations. Latvia and Burkina Faso. Ukraine and Congo-Brazzaville. And there’s today’s singer. Maybe not quite as exotic, but just as noteworthy. Today’s birthday girl Marian van de Wal is Dutch by birth, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Javine from the UK is 41 today It’s that odd time when we’ve all got over Christmas (unless you’re orthodox) and we’re waiting for that end digit to tick over to a ‘3’. Has it been a good year for you? One country who had a very […]
#BIRTHDAY: Boris Novković from Croatia is 55 today If you’re not confident on stage by yourself, what do you do? Well, you get some pals up there with you. You know they’ll be on your side, and if things don’t go well, you can lay the blame on them. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Martin Stenmarck from Sweden is 50 today Hold onto your hats! I’ve picked a birthday from Sweden today. Are you really excited? Could it be one of your favourites? Or not? Well as I sometimes say, every song ever performed on a Eurovision stage has fans. Some […]
#BIRTHDAY: Martin Vučić from North Macedonia is 40 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 41 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 […]
