#BIRTHDAY: Sue Schell from Switzerland is 75 today Many people have trodden the boards more than once, some with aplomb, and some doing stuff we’d rather not talk about. And I’m not possibly going to mention singers from the world’s oldest republic. But today we have a lady […]
#BIRTHDAY: Agnetha Fältskog from Sweden is 75 today When we celebrate the birthdays here, we usually stick to soloists and duos. However, when we can we’ll post the occasional birthday of a bigger group member. Especially if it’s a big birthday. When you think of Sweden – and […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nathan Trent from Austria is 33 today Do you have a favourite stage prop of all time? Is it a staircase used by the UK in 2009? The collection of pictures of ladies used by Italy in 1963? Or even a globe used by France in 2004? […]
#BIRTHDAY: Michalis Rakintzis from Greece is 68 today Things got a little odd at the turn of the century. We were trapped in Nordic/Baltic Europe after time in the eastern Med. Countries were taking it in turns to be relegated. And we had some interesting acts. When we […]
#BIRTHDAY: Goran Karan from Croatia is 61 today Over the years, some countries have been gunning for a win, only for that time to pass without success. They then slip back into obscurity. Of course, past performance is no guide to future performance. But when you look at […]
#BIRTHDAY: Fuat Güner from Türkiye is 77 today Do you have a favourite contest of all time? One where every song hits the mark, the host(s) do their job to perfection, and the production is just second to none?. Which on is it? In other news, in 1985 […]
#BIRTHDAY: Brooke Scullion from Ireland is 26 today Did you enjoy the contest in Turin/Torino? Did you go? Did the city meet your high expectations? And, of course, did your favourites make it to the Grand Final out of those cut-throat semi-finals? One highly tipped song didn’t actually […]
#BIRTHDAY: Céline Dion is 57 today For many performers, their three/six/nine/twelve minutes on the Eurovision stage is the highlight of their entertainment career. As nowhere else will they be seen by several hundred million people. But for others, Eurovision is a mere footnote. Today’s birthday girl Céline Marie […]
#BIRTHDAY: Dan Bittman from Romania is 63 today We all have our favourite decades. I loved the 1980s, as they were my formative years. However, the 1990s aren’t without their charm, as it was then that we started to see our favourite TV show expand eastwards. Whilst there […]
#BIRTHDAY: Pınar Ayhan from Türkiye is 53 today Do you miss Türkiye/Turkey? They weren’t always every juror’s favourite, but they did bring a little extra something to the contests they took part in. They even won once, which proves that anyone can win – yes, even that country […]
