#BIRTHDAY: Peter Nalitch from Russia is 40 today Do you ever wonder why a certain song does so well or so badly? Do you think it was robbed of a place in the Grand Final, or got through when it shouldn’t have done. Back in 2010, Russia sent […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ketil Stokkan from Norway is 65 today We all know that every country has a living Mr and Ms Eurovision. Some places have clear leaders. But some other countries have some healthy competition. Norway’s Mr Eurovision sadly died last year. No one can ever really replace him. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Scott Fitzgerald from the UK is 73 today Do you like a close contest? That show where more than one country can win, even going down to the last vote. It’s less likely these days, with bigger scores and more countries. The close contest did happen several […]
#BIRTHDAY: Fabrizio Faniello from Malta is 40 today Think of a small country. Now think of a smaller one. Is it Malta? It’s not always lumped with the European microstates, but it isn’t exactly large. And if it won the big prize at the Eurovision? It would easily […]

#BIRTHDAY: Boaz Ma’uda from Israel is 34 today The last contest to actually take place was in Israel. It was a good old affair, amongst the warmth of the eastern Mediterranean. Were you there? It was as a result of Israel’s fourth win 42 attempts. Not a bad […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sophie Garel from Luxembourg is 79 today Are there any countries you miss? Those that have taken part in our favourite TV show in the past, but sit on the sidelines these days? Luxembourg might spring to mind. With five wins, they were once a powerhouse of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Anastasia Prikhodko is 34 today It’s home entrant time again. A home entrant who was also not quite a native of the country she was representing. Are you confused yet? Well, it’s happened more than once, and can nicely spice up a contest. In 2009 we’d all […]
#BIRTHDAY: Björn Skifs from Sweden is 74 today Over the years, many acts have tried on more than one occasion to win the top prize in our favourite TV show. Even places like Sweden, a country which has so much talent that suits the Eurovision Song Contest. Today’s […]
