#BIRTHDAY: Darude from Finland is 47 today Can you spot a winner from a first listen? Yes? Well, could you spot a candidate for last place at first listen too? It can be tough at the top, but equally tough at the bottom. Imagine the scene. A certain […]

#BIRTHDAY: Tó Cruz from Portugal is 55 today As you know, our friends in Portugal achieved their victory after the longest ever non-winning streak to date.
