#BIRTHDAY: Lúcia Moniz from Portugal is 44 today Portugal? Why have they only had one win? They have a Latin-based language so some nations can ‘sort of’ understand them. It’s warm and sunny, and who doesn’t love a bit of warmth and sun, especially if you’re northern. Aside […]
#BIRTHDAY: Carola from Sweden is 54 today We know you like our birthday feature. Well this is one you won’t want to miss. Sweden is – in some eyes – the pinnacle of Eurovision-ness. So when a Swedish birthday comes along, we’re going to celebrate it. Today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lena Valaitis from Germany is 77 today It’s an odd coincidence that the writers of the song sung by yesterday’s birthday also wrote the song by today’s birthday girl. We should remember that our favourite TV show is a competition for songwriters as well as performers. And […]
Is there a song that really means something to you? Something that made you really fall in love with Eurovision? Something that you associate with a particular event in your life? In our ‘The Real Me’ articles, we get to the root of why we can’t get enough […]
#BIRTHDAY: Emly Starr from Belgium is 63 today Our friends in Belgium are a curious bunch. Plucky as ever, and taking part since the first contest (1956 in case you were wondering), and only ever had one win. It’s a nice arrangement that the broadcasters for the two […]
#BIRTHDAY: Dado Topić from Croatia is 71 today We celebrate all manner of things with our birthdays. The winners, the losers, the ‘also-ran’s. They all count, and you can guarantee that someone out there will like every single Eurovision song. So just occasionally, a song might not quite […]
#BIRTHDAY: Pave from Finland is 70 today Do you remember when countries had to sing in languages of their own country? None of this mixing it up or singing purely in English. It meant singers had to be creative if they were getting a message across. It was […]
#BIRTHDAY: Donatan from Poland is 36 today We have a very unique situation today. It’s custom for the named act to be on stage during a Eurovision performance. As far as we know, there has been one occasion where the named act had to take a step back […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ann Sophie from Germany is 30 today The Big Five. A good thing or a bad thing? Well, they put a lot of money into our favourite TV show, so we can see those jurors in HD rather than listen to them on a patchy phone line. […]
HappyNewYear: The 2021 Eurovision Season starts here Happy New Year! You may be wondering why we’re playing a non-Eurovision song (even if it’s by an obscure Nordic band from the 1970s). Well, from today, any song released for public consumption is eligible for the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest. […]
