#BIRTHDAY: Amanda Tenfjord from Greece is 27 today We’ve mentioned before that Greece seem to have generally hit their mark in the last 20 years. One win, a couple of third places, and a regular qualifier from semi-finals, you can never write them off. And they sometimes surprise. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Stefan from Estonia is 26 today As we know, early in this century a whole heap of countries had their first wins. Some seemingly deserved, some seemingly less so. We’ll leave it to you to decide which falls into which category. buy that means a number of […]
#BIRTHDAY: S10 from the Netherlands is 23 today Have you noticed something start to happen, and it’ll only happen more and more? yes, it’s the post-2000 births. Those performers who were born after 1 January 2000. They won’t have been alive for three of Sweden’s wins, or the […]
#BIRTHDAY: Mia Dimšić from Croatia is 31 today Do you have high hopes for a particular country. No, not Sweden. I mean a country that has the capacity to win our favourite TV show, but have never quite managed that win just yet. Remember, any country can win. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Konstrakta from Serbia is 45 today There are occasions when songs come along that completely throw you. And sometimes in a good way. You think you know where a song’s going, and then it sends you a curved ball. This can be a good thing, and waken […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ronela Hajati from Albania is 34 today Those fan favourites, eh? The ones that certain quarters of fandom rave about. Absolutely rave about. Then when said fan favourite doesn’t qualify they all threaten to give up following Eurovision in favour of bouldering. Well, maybe not. In other […]
#BIRTHDAY: Malik Harris from Germany is 26 today Some countries have such high hopes every year, and they might start to think Europe has it in for them. The occasional good result, but then year after year of ignominy. Take Germany for example. In 2022 they sent Malik […]
#BIRTHDAY: Chanel from Spain is 32 today Do you love hype? That thing where a tune ends up being secondary to the personality that’s singing it? Or that thing when the fannage have already decided a certain song has won four weeks before that Grand Final? In other […]
#BIRTHDAY: Michael Ben David from Israel is 27 today Some countries have their stars. Those names that will attract a crowd whether it’s singing on stage, or at the local supermarket buying their favourite satay sauce. So many other aspire to be like that, but don’t quite make […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lum!x from Austria is 21 today That thing where you hear a Eurovision song – pre-contest obviously – and think it could really challenge for the win when it gets on that stage. And then, when you see it on said stage, you wonder what you were […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ochman from Poland is 24 today What do you think of people representing countries other than their birth? It can be more controversial when their birth country and their chosen country both participate. Or is it worse of a country picks any old false-flagger? Today’s birthday boy […]
#BIRTHDAY: Vladana from Montenegro is 37 today Did you miss the countries that sat on the sidelines this year? We know some are likely to return in 2024, but some have made the subs bench their second home. We obviously like bigger Eurovisions, so when the roster is […]
#BIRTHDAY: Achille Lauro is 33 today Every now and then a performance comes along that just sets a new bar for performances. It’s so memorable in so many ways. And these ways are not always favourable. Of course, every song – without exception (well, maybe one exception) will […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nadir Rustamli from Azerbaijan is 24 today You know how some countries that you write off when you first hear their song. And then they hit the big stage and you think they could be in with a chance? Much to your chagrin. In other news, we […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jérémie Makiese from Belgium is 23 today Our friends in Belgium have been taking part in our favourite TV show since the start – that’s 1956, if you were thinking the first contest was in 2012. They do the right thing and alternate between VRT and RTBF, […]
