#BIRTHDAY: Simon Mathew from Denmark is 40 today We’ve not long been home from a contest that was almost in Denmark. Yes, it was in sunny Malmö, but many people travelled through the enormous Kastrup airport to get there. So could Copenhagen have made a claim to be […]
#BIRTHDAY: Maja Blagdan from Croatia is 56 today We’ve said it before, but some Eurovision performers can’t get enough of it. Some stop when they’ve finally made it to the bit time. Some just keep going… Maybe stopping at one appearance is the way to go. Today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Paulo de Carvalho from Portugal is 77 today Every song – in it’s own way – makes its own piece of history. It could be a country’s début song. It could be their lowest ever scorer. Or it could make its mark for wider reasons. Fifty (yes, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sarbel from Greece is 43 today Our friends in Greece were, to be fair, a country with very little success during the 20th Century. Everything changed in Copenhagen, and that win suddenly came within reach. As we know, Helena Paparizou eventually pulled it off, and a crop […]
#BIRTHDAY: Johnny Logan is 70 today Legend is a term bandied around all too easily in this day and age. Someone can get a maximum from [insert country here] because they used a line in that country’s language, and they get branded a legend. In 1987, history happened, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Eleftheria Eleftheriou from Greece is 35 today For every act that makes it to the big Eurovision stage, there are many who try and fall by the wayside. Persistence can pay off, and those who keep trying sometimes – eventually – make it. Today’s birthday girl Ελευθερία […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nathalie Pâque is 47 today You may think that the winners are the most important things to come out of the contest. They are one of them, obviously, but sometimes you have to look deeper to pick out other important aspects. Today’s birthday girl brought about a […]
#ESC2024: The Netherlands will not perform in the Grand Final The European Broadcasting Union has published a statement surrounding the Dutch entrant for the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest Joost Klein. It says: “The Dutch artist Joost Klein will not be competing in the Grand Final of this year’s […]
One sleepy Sunday morning during the rehearsals for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, we were around the breakfast table and our minds started to wander… discussions eventually turned to Astrology and we hit on an interesting notion: which Zodiac sign has won Eurovision the most? One thing let […]
#ESC2024: Irish fans give their views – Part 2 Eurovision Ireland ventured to Malmö’s Eurovillage at Folkets Park. We asked what how they were enjoying their time in Malmö, and what they thought of Bambie Thug’s chances in the Grand Final of the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest. Author: […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kikki Danielsson from Sweden is 72 today It’s home entrant time again. When you look through the years, several nations have had more home entrants than others – obviously. These may have been because their country won the previous year, or maybe because their country picked up […]
#ESC2024: The best/worst lyrics of the final? We all know that a killer lyric can be key to success (or failure). We’ve taken a look at those songs competing in the Grand Final, to see if there’s anything that will earn them those crucial extra points that could […]
#BIRTHDAY: Romuald Figuier is 86 today Eurovision loves a trier. You don’t win? No problem, just come right back with another song that could be a killer, maybe for another country. After all, it might not be you Europe is uncomfortable with, it could be the little principality […]
#ESC2024: Irish fans give their views Eurovision Ireland made it to the Eurovision quiz organised by OGAE Ireland at Fagan’s Irish pub in Malmö city centre. We got chance to speak to a few fans about their time in Malmö and their views on Ireland’s saviour Bambie Thug. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Marie Myriam from France is 67 today A winner? Well, someone has to. And this year it will be one of 37. Well, we can probably discount more than half of the field before they’ve sung a note in competition. Back in 1977, the field was a […]
