#BIRTHDAY: Cesár Sampson from Austria is 41 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 37 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: Laura Rizzotto from Latvia is 30 today Nationality is a funny thing. Some countries taking part in our favourite TV show insist on someone who only hails from where they’re representing. Others have a more laissez-faire approach. Today’s birthday girl Laura di Karvaļu Rizzotto is of Latvian […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aisel from Azerbaijan is 35 today 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 in Azerbaijan […]

#BIRTHDAY: Franka Batelić from Croatia is 32 today Our friends in Croatia have had their ups and downs over the years. It’s been mainly downs lately although there has been a recent ‘up’. And they should take comfort that anyone can win our favourite TV show. Just look […]
#BIRTHDAY: Saara Aalto from Finland is 37 today Our friends in Finland have had a very spotty time at Eurovision. Only one win in xxx years, and very little else in the higher positions. It matters not, especially to the fans. They will love certain countries/acts/songs, however well […]
#BIRTHDAY: Michael Schulte from Germany is 34 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: Waylon from the Netherlands is 44 today If you’ve been a runner-up in our favourite TV show, it must be tempting to try again for the win. Several individuals have achieved this, but even more have not. It’s high risk, but could really burnish your credentials as […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jenifer Brening is 27 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 […]
