BIRTHDAY: Vaidas Baumila from Lithuania is 33 today It’s duo time to brighten up your weekend. We all love duos, and it’s sometimes the case you prefer one half to the other. So it helps if there’s something for everyone. Today’s duo seemed very happy together, and one […]
BIRTHDAY: Trijntje Oosterhuis is 37 today Four years too early? Well, It’s not often someone is four years too early outside of an Olympic setting. But as we’re heading to Rotterdam’s fair city in the spring, it’s good to celebrate what the Dutch have done in the past. […]
BIRTHDAY: Monika Kuszyńska is 40 today We’ve all been through adverse times. Life’s not easy sometimes, and it’s how we cope with what’s thrown at us and how we come out of it that’s important. Today’s birthday girl Monika Kuszyńska has been through the mill a little. She […]
BIRTHDAY: Maria Elena Kyriakou is 36 today Continuing our Mediterranean theme – well, it started yesterday – we move east to the popular country taking part in our favourite TV show since the 1970s. As we’ve discussed, Greece’s success has mainly been 21st Century, when someone gave ERT/NERIT/ERT […]
BIRTHDAY: Guy Sebastian from Australia is 38 today It’s always exciting when a country débuts in our favourite TV show. Over 40 countries have participated, and there’s always rumour of more débuts to come. The newest country is that famous European country – Australia. Avid viewers for 30 […]
BIRTHDAY: Eduard Romanyuta representing Moldova is 27 today False-flagger alert! Well, of sorts. It’s one of those days when the worlds of false flaggers and persistent triers collide. With criminal results, you might say. Today’s birthday boy Едуард Едуардович Романюта/Eduard Romanyuta tried three times before he finally got […]
BIRTHDAY: Leonor Andrade from Portugal is 25 today I often mention those unlucky songs that were a year too early. The song the year later won, or did really well. So the year-too-early ones may just have paved the way. If you cast your mind back to Portugal’s […]
BIRTHDAY: Maimuna from Belarus is 39 today It’s sometimes the case that someone is credited as a performer, but they don’t actually sing. They could be really famous, and there’s a hope their name will capture a few extra votes. Today’s birthday girl Маймуна Амаду Мурашка/Maimuna Amadu Murasjko, […]
BIRTHDAY: Polina Gagarina from Russia is 32 today There’s often an air of inevitability about some results. A certain republic surrounded by Italy will do badly. A country on the Caspian Sea often does well. And then there’s a certain very large country that straddles Europe and Asia. […]
BIRTHDAY: Molly Sterling from Ireland is 21 today We like today’s birthday girl, and not just because she’s Irish. Some of us went on a boat trip with her, and chewed the fat for hours. It was a defining moment in 2015. It’s apt that the day Ireland […]
BIRTHDAY: Stig Rästa from Estonia is 39 today I’m loving today’s birthday. But more of that later. Our favourite TV show often throws up writers who keep coming back. It could be because they’re good writers. Or it could be because they’ve nothing better to do with a […]
BIRTHDAY: Elhaida Dani from Albania is 26 today Just occasionally a song passes me by completely. It’s not a bad song, or a silly song. It might just be unfortunate enough to be in a contest with more memorable songs. I’ll stop digging a hole for myself now. […]
In an unexpected turn of events, Poland have reverted to a national final format. The newly appointed TVP1 channel director Jan Pawlicki took to Twitter to reveal that the country will hold a national selection on March 5th. “Let the viewers decide who will represent Poland in Eurovision! […]
