#BIRTHDAY: Patricia Kaas from France is 54 today Have you ever seen a performance on a Eurovision stage that leaves you utterly dumbstruck? No, not in a Rodolfo Chikilicuatre sense. A performance where the singer gives it everything, and then some.. These types of performances often come from […]
BIRTHDAY: Kamil Mikulčík from Slovakia is 43 today Our friends at the EBU encourage as many countries as possible to take part in our favourite TV show. Some decide against it, either due to funding or lack of interest by the broadcaster. Us diehard fans would love to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Malena Ernman from Sweden is 50 today Yes, we pick on that powerhouse with the blue-and-yellow flag today. You’re probably already sitting up to see which lucky Swede it is. Well read on. Today’s birthday girl Sara Magdalena ‘Malena’ Ernman had a go at that very interesting […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nela Pocisková from Slovakia is 30 today The duet is a curious beast. Two performers that you hope are in tune with each other – in every sense of the word. It’s no good having two randomers just thrown together for a song contest. Today’s birthday girl […]
#BIRTHDAY: Brinck from Denmark is 46 today Does a well-known songwriter help to get a song votes? Eurovision is a songwriter’s competition after all, and a singer’s performance can make or break a song. Back in 2009, our friends in Denmark talked Ronan Keating into co-writing a song […]

#BIRTHDAY: Andrea Demirović from Montenegro is 35 today It’s a tough gig being first to perform at our favourite TV show. And if the Saturday night isn’t bad enough, just imagine doing it on the Tuesday night. It can’t be easy having to warm up three nights of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Oscar Loya from Germany is 41 today The Big Five (formerly known as the Big Four). Do they warrant a position in the Grand Final? Or should they have to qualify like everyone else? It’s a question that goes back over 14 years. For now, at least, […]
BIRTHDAY: Hadise from Turkey is 34 today Let’s cast our minds back to former years, to countries taking a long-term absence from our favourite TV show. They could be financially constrained, disappointed with results, or there could be other darker reasons. Our friends in Turkey used to be […]
BIRTHDAY: Susanne Georgi from Andorra is 43 today You want colour? Well after two days of glorious monochrome it’s a now a good time to see if you’re colourblind or not. And it’s not only colour, it’s also from this century! Control yourself! Do you remember Andorra? They […]
