#BIRTHDAY: Silvia Night from Iceland is 43 today As you’ll have seen from our birthday feature, all kinds of song have been on that stage. Some are well-crafted songs that might be slow-burners. And then there are the others… Today’s is a uniquely crafted song that attracted all […]
#BIRTHDAY: Isabelle Aubret from France is 87 today It’s about time we had a winner. And it’s about time we had something in glorious black & white. So when those two parts of a Venn diagram work, it’s only right we oblige. Back in 1962, France notched up […]
#BIRTHDAY: Rebeka Dremelj from Slovenia is 45 today Stage acts have come a long way over the years. It was once ground-breaking when a Dane had two dancers mincing around behind her in Luxembourg. Now, that would be seen as twee or just plain daft. These days, you […]
#BIRTHDAY: Märyon from Monaco is 38 today We know that there’s always talk of a certain micro-microstate returning in 2026, most likely singing in French. But in the early days of the contest you couldn’t move for songs in français. That’s because one of those francophone countries was […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lum!x from Austria is 23 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: Ryan Dolan from Ireland is 40 today Sometimes you want some countries to have success. Maybe it’s because you’d like to see how they host a contest. Or they did well in years gone by and have since lost their way. Talking of countries that have lost […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ester Peony from Romania is 32 today What do you think of stage shows? Should they be kept simple, in order to emphasise a song? Or is there anything wrong in a kickass dance routine or novel staging? Both can work. Just look at the contrast between, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Debrah Scarlett from Norway is 32 today A song like today’s song is one I don’t want to stop. You get them sometimes. They look a bit odd to start with but draw you in as they go along. By the end, you wish the song was […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ochman from Poland is 26 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 39 today Did you miss the countries that sat on the sidelines this year? We know some could return in 2026, but some have made the subs bench their second home. We obviously like bigger Eurovisions, so when the roster is revealed for […]
