#BIRTHDAY: Célia Lawson from Portugal is 50 today If you ever get the gig to represent your country, you have to be prepared for failure as well as success. Only one country can win, so the chances are you won’t. So it’s a case of how well, relatively, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Katy Garbi from Greece is 62 today Do you remember when our friends in Greece were struggling to get any success in our favourite TV show? Those times have changed, and Greece can mix it with the best of them now. In the 1990s, there was a […]
#BIRTHDAY: Franka Batelić from Croatia is 32 today Our friends in Croatia have had their ups and downs over the years. It’s been mainly downs lately although there has been a recent ‘up’. And they should take comfort that anyone can win our favourite TV show. Just look […]
#BIRTHDAY: Igor Cukrov from Croatia is 40 today Do you notice that some areas specialise in certain styles of music? For example, our friends in Finland like their hard rock, and they’ve occasionally sent it to our favourite TV show. The Balkans, by contrast, like their big ballads. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Colm ‘C T’ Wilkinson from Ireland is 80 today Over the years, many big stars have taken part in our favourite TV show. Some are stars of the charts, some are TV personalities, but plenty have excelled in musical theatre. Back in 1978, the contest was opened […]

#BIRTHDAY: Jónsi from Iceland is 47 today We move north after our little sojourn into the Balkan world. And to someone who has been on that stage twice. Once alone, and once with a pal. You see it’s true that some just can’t get enough of the heady […]
#BIRTHDAY: Tony Cetinski from Croatia is 55 today For many performers, Eurovision gets into their blood. Many deny it, but plenty would love to come back and have another chance at singing in front of 100 million people, even if it’s just for three minutes. For them, it […]
#BIRTHDAY: Donna McCaul from Ireland is 40 today The great thing about our favourite TV show is that it’s full of people who do nothing but try. They find favour in their country, they tour Europe, they put up with interview after interview. And they put their hearts […]
#BIRTHDAY: Daria Kinzer from Croatia is 36 today Costume change. Are there two more enigmatic words in the Eurovision lexicon? One of these can enhance a quality song, or even make a less quality one all that more special. It all comes down to when the change occurs, […]
