A good song needs a killer lyric. That’s obvious. But it also needs those specific lines that put it above the rest. What is your favourite line from a song? The first song sung by today’s birthday boy Donny Montell (né Donatas Montvydas) had plenty of them. And […]
#BIRTHDAY: Käärijä from Finland is 31 today We often say that anyone can win the top prize in our favourite TV show. Past performance is no guide to future performance and all that. The same can apply to language. While one language pervades most contests these days, there […]
#BIRTHDAY: Stefan Raab from Germany is 58 today Every country has its Mr Eurovision. And, of course, its Mrs/Ms Eurovision too. But some national claims to title are easier to judge. In Germany, you may think it can only be a certain Mr Siegel, with perhaps a Mr […]
#BIRTHDAY: James Newman from the UK is 39 today Eurovision fans love a record breaker. The singer who scored the most points. The countries that have won the most times. The first song to include the word ‘unbeknownest’. They all have their place. Other records are less coveted […]
Amy & Shelley Vol from The Netherlands, have turned 29 years old today. Amy & Shelley represented The Netherlands, alongside their sister Lisa, at the 2007 Junior Eurovision Song Contest – finishing in 11th place, with “Adem in, adem uit”. Happy Birthday, Amy & Shelley! Let us know […]
#BIRTHDAY: Olivia Lewis from Malta is 46 today Think of a rock. A big happy rock. Perhaps one in the sea. A sea bounding Europe to its south. Then think of how this happy rock would celebrate if it actually won our favourite TV show. Back in 2007, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Roger Pontare from Sweden is 73 today Hang on to your hats. To some people, today’s song comes from the only country that matters in Eurovision. No, it’s not Malta, although would you be happier if it was? Of course I’m talking about Sweden. Some would like […]
Viktorija Loba from North Macedonia, has turned 36 years old today. Viktorija represented North Macedonia, alongside Marija, at the 2003 Junior Eurovision Song Contest – finishing in 12th place, with “Ti ne me poznavaš”. Happy Birthday, Viktorija! Let us know what you think about the Junior Eurovision Song […]
#BIRTHDAY: Aurela Gaçe from Albania is 50 today Dramatic is always a high-risk strategy. It can do the business, as it can keep that valuable televoter completely enthralled, or it can bomb completely, as that same valuable televoter just points and laughs instead. Our Albanian friends like to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sandra Kim from Belgium is 52 today It’s a well-known fact that Eurovision fans love records. No, not the seven-inch kind, but the “Who got the most 12s” sort of record. One of those of note is the youngest winner. It’s held, of course, by today’s birthday […]
