#BIRTHDAY: Alexander Rybak from Norway is 36 today Some songs have just scraped a win, and some have won at a canter. Did you prefer the close contest, or should there by a time when a runaway runaway winner is a good thing? Occasionally a song comes along […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lidia Kopania from Poland is 44 today You know those countries that always turn up. They don’t always light up the scoreboard, but they come along every year, sometimes with high hopes and sometimes not. And many of these countries have never won – yet. In other […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aysel from Azerbaijan is 33 today Do you have an all-time favourite duo? Is it one of those pairing that achieve notoriety, like a certain Belgian twosome from 1973? Or someone a lot more recent like two Spaniards in 2018? Either way, we love duets as they […]
#BIRTHDAY: Zoli Ádok from Hungary is 46 today Our favourite TV show is a singing contest. Well, actually it’s a songwriters’ contest. But our performers don’t just sing. Many of them have other talents too. The prime one we often see – besides the singing – is dancing. […]
#CHRISTMAS2021: Eurovision Ireland Advent Calendar Day 18 Christmas is a-coming, so we at Eurovision Ireland want to share some notable performances by Eurovision acts of festive songs. Some are standards, and some may be new to you. Today’s song is… Author: John Stanton Source: Eurovision Ireland

#BIRTHDAY: Yohanna from Iceland is 31 today I know, we keep picking songs from the 20th Century that no-one remembers, and aren’t impressive. Well I’m hopefully redressing that balance today with a song from the 21st Century. That’s right. It’s recent. If you can call 2009 recent. And […]

#BIRTHDAY: Sasha Son from Lithuania is 38 today Another weekend and another birthday, and it’s from our friends in Lithuania. As you’ll know, they often have an interesting selection process down Kaunas way that seems to last some 51 weeks. Or is that just how it feels? This […]
#BIRTHDAY: Noa from Israel is 52 today Our favourite TV show always has noble aims, whether it’s to find something that people from Europe (and beyond) like, or just to bring people together in a way that politicians can’t. We should celebrate that fact we’re all in this […]

#BIRTHDAY: Anastasia Prikhodko is 34 today It’s home entrant time again. A home entrant who was also not quite a native of the country she was representing. Are you confused yet? Well, it’s happened more than once, and can nicely spice up a contest. In 2009 we’d all […]
