#BIRTHDAY: Jamie-Lee from Germany is 27 today Who would you like to see win our favourite TV show this year? A song from one of the semi-finals? Or one of those automatic qualifiers? As we know, six countries per year make it straight through to the Grand Final. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Alvan from France is 32 today It’s good to see something different tried at a Eurovision Song Contest. Usually anyway. Sometimes, Schlager can get a bit staid, and how many have suffered death-by-ballad? So something a bit folksy can stand out. Take 2022 for example. Our friends […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paul Oscar from Iceland is 55 today Just occasionally, we get songs that break the mould. A song so different that it has to be seen to be believed, and our favourite TV show is never quite the same again. And that brings me onto today’s song. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Jørgen Olsen from Denmark is 75 today We love all the songs we pick for this birthdays feature – generally. And all manner of fates befall them. Some get stuck in the twilight zone of a semi-final. Some do much better. Today we have one that did […]
#BIRTHDAY: Alfred from Spain is 28 today Do you want a song from the late 2010s? Do you? Really? Something that still has a bit of a shine on it? In other words, a song from 2018? Well you’re in the right place. Do you remember Lisbon? That […]
#BIRTHDAY: Rykka is 39 today Do you like it when we see people from outside Europe (or, since 2015, Australia), taking part in our favourite TV show? Do you want to see the best singers, wherever they’re from? Or should they just be European? Of course, non-Europeans have […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tommy Nilsson from Sweden is 65 today There’s a core of people out there who believe that a certain country can do no wrong. You know the thing, a person could read out the phone book on stage and still make the top five. In other news, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Roko from Croatia is 25 today Eurovision attracts singers both young and old. We’ve had nonagenarians on stage. And mere children. Well, not the children any more, but never forget our show’s history. Today we have a singer who was towards the younger end of the spectrum […]
#BIRTHDAY: Cornelia Jakobs from Sweden is 33 today We’ve often said that a gimmick can often help your quest for Eurovision glory. It’s usually something blindingly obvious, like a costume change or a big prop. But it’s not always so. In Torino/Turin, today’s birthday girl Cornelia Jakobs (née […]
#PORTUGAL: And the winner is… Portugal’s Festival da Canção has just finished, and the jury and Portuguese public have picked a song destined to carry the hopes of the Iberian nation in Basel in May. But what is the song? It’s… Deslocado by Napa What do you think? […]
