#BIRTHDAY: Wyn Hoop from Germany is 87 today Do you ever get confused by song titles? You expect a song in a certain language because of the title, and you get something else? Songs in Serbo-Croat with English titles for example. Today’s birthday boy Wyn Hoop (né Winfried […]
#BIRTHDAY: Nadine Beiler from Austria is 33 today Some countries have had a patchy relationship with our favourite TV show. Take Italy for example. They took over a decade out, and eventually won when they chose to. Then there are our friends in Austria. It’s been a bit […]
#BIRTHDAY: Amber from Malta is 32 today It’s often discussed whether certain countries could host our favourite TV show if they won. We know for certain that winning can be a headache for some broadcasters. The Mediterranean’s happiest rock has never hosted the big ESC, but they do […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kathy Leander from Switzerland is 60 today Our friends from the heights of Europe that calls itself the Swiss Confederation have been stalwarts of Eurovision from the start. As you would expect, in almost seventy year’s worth of participation, there have been highs and lows. We all […]
#BIRTHDAY: Anne-Marie David is 71 today A winner? Well, there have been 70 of them, so they’ll crop up here from time to time. There is another winner who has a birthday today, but I’ll save her for another year. Today’s birthday girl Anne-Marie David has actually represented […]
#BIRTHDAY: Max Mutzke from Germany is 42 today Since the advent of the in-situ semi-finals in 2004, the Big Four/Five have always had their place in the Grand Final assured. Some disagree with this, but it can add that extra je ne sais quoi to proceedings. In that […]
#BIRTHDAY: Al Bano from Italy is 80 today Our friends in Italy are a very musical bunch. ‘Only’ three wins, but with the capability to win far more often should they choose to. And they even choose the range of configurations, from soloists to groups. And even, occasionally, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ott Lepland from Estonia is 36 today It’s always good when a singer’s birthday comes along whose song is a personal favourite. And when it’s perhaps a Baltic song, even better. And it comes from an excellent year. Estonia has only had one win so far, but […]
#BIRTHDAY: Can Bonomo from Türkiye is 36 today It’s always sad when a country decides to sit out our favourite TV show. We had a now-absent country yesterday, and we have another one today. Back in 2012, we saw the last entry to date from Türkiye/Turkey. We want […]
#BIRTHDAY: TWiiNS from Slovakia are 37 today Two birthdays for the price of one. Always a bonus, don’t you think? But as you’ll gather, a fair number of twins have taken part in our favourite TV show. There is always this fascination with twins, whether they’re tumbling around […]
#BIRTHDAY: Glen Vella from Malta is 40 today There are countries out there desperate to win the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time. Desperate, and will try any approach to do so. But is there a secret formula that other countries are keeping to themselves? In other […]
#BIRTHDAY: Evelin Samuel from Estonia is 48 today Have you ever thought of the journeys some performers have to make to get to a Eurovision venue? Things might be slightly different these days, and Australia travelling anywhere takes the record now, but it wasn’t always this way. Whilst […]
#BIRTHDAY: Lill Lindfors from Sweden is 83 today Yesterday we had a lady from Sweden in this slot. And guess, what, here comes another one. Flickorna tar över, as they say in sunny Örebro. Now, Sahlene could only manage a pitiful third in her contest, and she was […]
Good evening Europe and good morning Australia, this is Liverpool calling! Tonight is the Grand Final Jury Show, during which the 37 juries around Europe and beyond will watch a full run through of tomorrow night’s live show and cast their votes. 26 countries will sing tonight – […]
#BIRTHDAY: Anna Sahlene is 47 today That thing when your country wins, meaning you have to host next year. If you’re that winning broadcaster, it must be a year-long headache. Venue, date, theme, hosts – they all must be a nightmare. On top of all that, you still […]
