#BIRTHDAY: 3 July – Aisel from Azerbaijan is 37 When your country has a good record in our favourite TV show, it puts extra pressure on performers to keep up this tradition. But there will come a time when that country will do badly. In 2018, our friends […]
#BIRTHDAY: 13 May – Alexander Rybak from Norway is 40 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 […]
#BIRTHDAY: 30 Apr – Sennek from Belgium is 30 Our friends in Belgium have only ever had one win, despite competing in our favourite TV show since the year dot. They’ve had a couple of near misses, but of the seven originals, that second win proves elusive. With […]
#BIRTHDAY: 27 Feb – Jessika Muscat is 37 today It’s always interesting how some countries choose their singers and songs. Some go internal, or there’s the bog standard national final. Or you could be innovative. Like a certain event in 2018. Our friends in San Marino tried something […]

#BIRTHDAY: Jenifer Brening is 29 today Is it us, 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 […]
#BIRTHDAY: Elina Nechayeva from Estonia is 34 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: Jean-Karl Lucas from France is 43 today Do you remember 2018? We were in sunny sunny Lisbon. Everyone was tipping certain countries to win. Or do badly. They got some predictions right. And some, well, not quite as right. As with every year recently, the Big Five […]
