BIRTHDAY: Hadise from Turkey is 34 today Let’s cast our minds back to former years, to countries taking a long-term absence from our favourite TV show. They could be financially constrained, disappointed with results, or there could be other darker reasons. Our friends in Turkey used to be […]
BIRTHDAY: Özkan Uğur from Turkey is 66 today We don’t always celebrate soloists in this column. There are singers who perform in duets, trios and bigger. But no bigger than six, obviously. Today we have a very active member of a trio who took part twice. It’s today’s […]
BIRTHDAY: Seyyal Taner from Turkey is 67 today Yesterday we had one of the most famous singers to fail to score in our favourite TV show. Just like buses, here comes another one. And just like Jahn, this performance will leave you out of breath. Back in 1987 […]

One of the best things about Eurovision is that it moves every year – so not only does every contest give you another set of songs to enjoy, but it also gives you a brand new host city to explore and fall in love with! But just how […]
Every Monday for the last few weeks, we have been looking back at former participating nations at the Eurovision Song Contest. This week, in our final #MondayMemories, we look back at Turkey, a country that competed 34 times – the last in 2012. Turkey debuted in the Eurovision […]
Eurovision 2018 will always stand out in the history books for the year that 3 countries lost their 100% qualification rates from the semi-finals. Many of us here at Eurovision Ireland never dreamed we’d see the day Russia or Romania failed to make it into Saturday night’s main […]
