BIRTHDAY: Zlata Ognevich is 33 today I may have said this before, but some songs in our favourite TV show always benefit from a prop. It doesn’t have to be a big prop, even a blindfold can suffice at times. Sometimes, it does need to make an impression. […]
BIRTHDAY: Muriel Day from Ireland is 77 today* Some of you may only have ever seen contests in glorious colour. And the quality seems to get higher every year. A pity the songs don’t always follow suit. Although we take colour for granted now, it wasn’t always the […]
BIRTHDAY: Mary Roos from Germany is 70 today Have you ever wondered how difficult it is to open a Eurovision Song Contest? On the one hand, you get your three minutes out of the way and can then sip the free bubbly. I’m looking at you Amandine. But […]
BIRTHDAY: David Civera from Spain is 40 today One of the things about taking part in our favourite TV contest is the audience. Yes, it’s a TV show first and foremost, but there will always be a crowd that you have to sing to too. In the good […]

BIRTHDAY: Gisela from Andorra is 40 A new year, and we can now say that Israel will be hosting this year. Exciting, isn’t it? Well it is for the 42 countries that will be there on stage between 14 and 18 May. Will yours be of them? One country that […]
