BIRTHDAY: Yannis Savvidakis from Cyprus is 57 today We mentioned a duet the other day, and how with two performers, you’re likely to tick more boxes. And more ticked boxes mean more votes – or so you’d hope. Not that many duets have won our favourite TV show […]
BIRTHDAY: Sabrina from Portugal is 38 today Do you ever wonder what goes through the minds of defeated semi-finalists? Do you think they expect to fall at the semi-final stage? Or are there thoroughly disappointed? Eleventh place must be that most unlucky of positions. You only just miss […]
BIRTHDAY: Dan Bittman from Romania is 58 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: Vaidas Baumila from Lithuania is 33 today It’s duo time to brighten up your weekend. We all love duos, and it’s sometimes the case you prefer one half to the other. So it helps if there’s something for everyone. Today’s duo seemed very happy together, and one […]
BIRTHDAY: Lidia Isac from Moldova is 27 today Which country would like to see win the contest for the first time? And would you go there if they did? Several countries are gunning for it. Let’s take Moldova for example. Not always a ‘fashionable’ country, but with some […]
BIRTHDAY: Jonida Maliqi from Albania is 37 today Did you enjoy the last Eurovision Song Contest. You must remember, it was in Tel Aviv. You were wearing your blue jumper. It hardly seems 10 months ago that we were by the sunny Mediterranean. Our friends in Albania, more […]
BIRTHDAY: Emma Marrone from Italy is 36 today Our friends in Italy have done fairly well since they can back from exile. Seven top 10 finishes in their last nine attempts, including two runner-up spots. Which other of the Big Five can boast that record? Of course, for […]
BIRTHDAY: Gaitana from Ukraine is 39 today Do you have parents from two completely different places? Is one parent from Ireland and the other from Israel, for example? It’s great when you can benefit from two different cultures. It shows that this world isn’t so big after all. […]
BIRTHDAY: Lado Leskovar of Yugoslavia is 78 today What’s your favourite type of song? Is it one that celebrates love? Or one that tells us about what we’re doing to the planet? Or something darker? They all have a place in our favourite TV show. And back in […]
BIRTHDAY: Tonina Torrielli from Italy is 86 today Even though we were looking forward to a riotous cavalcade of quality song in Rotterdam in May, looking at the present isn’t what we always do here. It’s good to look at the past. After all, there were contests in […]
