#BIRTHDAY: Lisa Angell from France is 53 today You may think that when Portugal won, they had been mightily unlucky to only win at its 376th attempt. Well I guess they have, but now the most appearances without a win honour lies with Malta and Iceland – depending on […]
BIRTHDAY: John Karayiannis from Cyprus is 27 today There are still plenty of countries that have never won the big prize at our favourite TV show. Some have come close, but can’t quite find that mystery ingredient to push them over the line. Banger or ballad? Male or […]
#BIRTHDAY: Elina Born from Estonia is 27 today Woo-hoo! It’s duo time today. That delicious mix of two singers. Well, it’s delicious when they do work together. Or it could be a potential car crash. Either way, there’s usually at least one singer that works, even if the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maimuna from Belarus is 31 today Performing at the Eurovision Song Contest isn’t always about being the singer. You could a credit as a performer, but through another role. And if you’re a competent instrumentalist, then why not? Today’s birthday girl Маймуна Амаду Мурашка/Maimuna Amadu Murashko got […]

#BIRTHDAY: Elhaida Dani from Albania is 28 today Do you think it’s only a matter of time before another country wins our favourite TV show for the first time? It could, of course, be this year. Our friends in Albania have never won, but they can get out […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aminata from Latvia is 28 today Does it ever pique your interest when you see someone with a noteworthy name taking part in our favourite TV show? They could be a native of their country, but have an interesting ancestry. Today’s birthday girl Aminata Savidogo is one […]
#BIRTHDAY: Boggie from Hungary is 34 today We mentioned our Magyar friends the other day, in that we missed them and we wanted them back. But it’s also true that they’ve tried a variety of musical styles down the years. What’s your preferred style? If it happens to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Václav Noid Bárta from Czechia is 40 today Some countries haven’t sent many performers to our favourite TV show. So when one comes along, it’s only right that we celebrate it. Even more so when it’s one of those special birthdays that end in a zero. Back […]
