#BIRTHDAY: Lulu from the United Kingdom is 74 today Do you remember when the UK of stuff were good at Eurovision? Yes, since we hit the 21st Century their fortunes have waned a little, aside from a certain performance in Torino/Turin. But in their prime, the BBC were […]
#BIRTHDAY: Vasil from North Macedonia is 38 today Those performers selected for 2020 but ended up performing a year later. They were a patient bunch. And some must have thought they’d blown their chance when the 2020 contest was cancelled. Today’s birthday boy Васил Гарванлиев/Vasil Garvanliev had to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jelena Tomašević from Serbia is 39 today We’ve got another home entrant here. They will always occupy a special place in Eurovision lore, as there has only been 66 of them. A small number have won, and a number have done the opposite. Maybe it’s best to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maja Tatić from Bosnia & Herzegovina is 52 today Do you have a favourite part of what used to be Yugoslavia? A part you have a soft spot for, and always cheer on if/when they take part in our favourite TV show? One ex-Yugo nation that is […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aistė from Lithuania is 45 today It’s not often that you get a song with the word thrush in it. Unless it’s a jingle for an advert for some medical products I guess. And when a bird is mentioned, it’s usually something more showy, like a bluebird […]
#BIRTHDAY: Vanja Radovanović from Montenegro is 40 today Many countries have never won the big prize in our favourite TV show. Some seem to have difficulties getting through semi-finals, even though they try – really try. Montenegro is a beautiful pocket-sized country. It produces some very scenic music […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jessy Matador from France is 40 today Have you had a good week? Has it snowed where you are? Or is it fine and sunny in an Israeli stylee? Whatever your week, you must be glad that it’s almost the weekend. So with that in mind, here’s […]
#BIRTHDAY: Blas Cantó from Spain is 31 today If you recall, it seemed like there were hundreds of performers who didn’t get the 2020 gig but were then kept on for Rotterdam 2021. Actually, the number was far less than that but it’s a nice thought to hold. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Mary Spiteri from Malta is 75 today When Portugal won in 2017, they had held the record for the most entries without a win. It’s not a record a country wants, but it’s one to watch. But who holds that record now? Well, it depends on your […]
#BIRTHDAY: Serhat is 58 today Every now and then, Eurovision yields a folk hero. They don’t set out to be renowned, but it just happens to them. And whatever they do, any criticism just bounces off them. In 2019, we saw the Sammarinese send today’s birthday boy Serhat […]
