#BIRTHDAY: Despina Olympiou from Cyprus is 45 today Are you a real fan? Could you name every single song by every single country, in order? Could you also throw in where they finished? Then we like to throw in challenges every now and then. For various reasons, some […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jedward from Ireland are 29 today Do you think we’re short-changing you, with only one birthday per day. Well it wouldn’t be right if we were to dilute the attention we give to a birthday boy or girl. Unless it’s twins. And if you want twins, you’ve […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sandra Kim from Belgium is 48 today It’s a well-known fact that Eurovision fans love records. No, not the seven-inch kind, but the “Who got the most 12s” sort of record. One of those of note is the youngest winner. It’s held, of course, by today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Cliff Richard from the UK is 80 today For some Eurovision performers, that appearance on the hallowed stage might not quite be the highlight of their career. Important, definitely, but not the pinnacle. Today’s birthday boy Cliff Richard (né Harry Rodger Webb) probably needs no introduction. He’s […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jacques Raymond from Belgium is 82 today There are many people that have tried one more than one occasion to win European music’s biggest prize. Some do it knowingly, whilst others get drafted in late on, probably because they’ve done it before. Today’s birthday boy Jacques Raymond […]
#BIRTHDAY: Brian Kennedy from Ireland is 54 today Do you like a ballad or a banger? Or something in between? Or do you like all forms of song – yes, even Schlager? Our friends in Ireland are past masters at the ballad. They’ve won no end of contests […]
#BIRTHDAY: Isis Gee from Poland is 48 today It can be an odd thing being a false flagger. You could be up against someone from your country, who’s representing your country too. So it’s maybe less of a dilemma if your country of origin doesn’t actually take part […]
#BIRTHDAY: Séverine is 72 today Is it good to be a false flagger? Would you do it to deprive a native singer of the Eurovision gig? Or would you see it as bringing along your own expertise to a country that needs some help? Certain countries are/have been […]
#BIRTHDAY: Csézy from Hungary is 41 today There’s often a dilemma, as a result of the free language rule. Do you aim for the wider audience by picking a more common language, or do you stay true to your roots? The way taken by those torn between these […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kobi Marimi from Israel is 29 today You may recall last year we said that there had never been any Eurovision singers’ birthday of note (that we knew of) on this date, and then two came along at once. We celebrated one last year, so it’s the […]
