#BIRTHDAY: Koit Toome from Estonia is 42 today What better way to kick off 2021 with the birthday of some who may get to Rotterdam in May. It’s often nice when we see people having another go at winning European singing’s biggest prize. Back in 1998, we saw […]
#BIRTHDAY: Artsvik from Armenia is 36 today Which country would you like to see win for the first time? For many years, it was probably Portugal, but now the field could be wide open. For somewhere a bit ‘exotic’, you may want our friends in Armenia to win. […]
