#BIRTHDAY: Elina Nechayeva from Estonia is 29 today How do you feel about the free language rule? Does it promote a song as many more people can possibly understand it, or do you think each country should stick to its roots? Our friends in Estonia have a language […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ryan O’Shaughnessy is 28 today It’s always good to see a success story. One where someone gets through, despite the odds being against them. Which is a tenuous link to Ireland. Those heady days of the 1990s seem a long time ago, and past performance is no […]
#BIRTHDAY: Cesár Sampson from Austria is 37 today We occasionally bang on about any country being capable of winning our favourite TV show. Some have that fluke result, some are knocking on the door of winning most years, and some blow hot and cold. Today we go to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sevak Khanagyan from Armenia is 33 today Our friends in Armenia are definitely trying. They’ve mostly got into Grand Finals, but we all have bad days, don’t we? Even Sweden. Back in 2018, 1TV of Armenia sent today’s birthday boy Սևակ Խանաղյան/Севак Ханагян/Sevak Khanagyan with a really […]
#BIRTHDAY: Franka from Croatia is 28 today Our friends in Croatia have had their ups and downs over the years. Sadly, it’s been mainly downs lately. But they should take comfort that anyone can win our favourite TV show. Just look at Portugal. But even though they’re not […]
BIRTHDAY: Michael Schulte from Germany is 30 today We need to bear in mind that part performance is no guide to future performance. Some countries win, completely out of the blue, and then sink back into obscurity. Or a country could have one really bad rogue result amid […]
BIRTHDAY: Fabrizio Moro from Italy is 45 today If you could put money on the next country of the Big Five to win, who would you pick? Germany was the last of them to win, but that was a long time ago now. But that leaves Spain, France, […]
BIRTHDAY: Rasmussen from Denmark is 35 today Denmark. A fine country eh? Full of bacon, pastries and the odd singer. And once you get them talking in their own language, you’ll be more amazed than at any time in your life. They’ve sent acts of all shapes an […]
BIRTHDAY: Amaia from Spain is 21 today As you’ll know, we pick performers from all years when we celebrate birthdays here. You’ll relish the black & white of some, but equally you’ll enjoy the “4K HD-ness” of the more recent contests. As it happens, today we go all […]
JESC BIRTHDAY: Jael from Australia is 14 today Jael Wena represented Australia at JESC 2018. She finished third. Happy birthday, Jael! Author: John Stanton Source: Eurovision Ireland
BIRTHDAY: Jenifer Brening is 23 today Is it me, or are there more false flaggers than ever now? And false flaggers whose native land already participates? Often there’s a home element to every entry, but it’s not always the case. If you’re a small country like, say, San […]
