UNKNOWN: Lisa Gold-Rubin*, Itzhak Okev and Nehama Shutan* (all Alphabeta, 1978), Alex Cooper (Katrina and the Waves, 1997)

*I did uncover some information regarding Lisa Gold-Rubin and Nehama Shutan which would make them Pisces and Leo respectively, however I was unable to confirm whether they were the actual Eurovision performers or whether they just happened to share the same names. The lead for Gold-Rubin is stronger... but still unconfirmed 😅

**Some sites list Tymofii's birthday as being in September, however his actual Ukrainian Wikipedia page shows it as February 6th, so that's what I'm going with

Corrections/additional information welcome!

“why doesn’t the u.k just send adele, or something?” is my least favourite eurovision argument and it only ever comes from people who fundamentally don’t understand eurovision

it’s not about who is more globally successful. it’s about who is most likeable, weirdest, sexiest, campiest, energetic, memorable, entertaining, moving, fun. who has the best vibes?

san marino sent fucking flo rida once and you know what happened? nobody gave a shit. they came 22nd. out of 26. it’s not about your achievements or success outside of eurovision

man playing a dragon age game as an abomination would rock so tremendously tho. you're a possessed person and you have to play as two characters making up one person and balance it out so one half of the equation doesn't swallow the other half. maybe you could choose what kind of spirit at the beginning of the game and it would count as your class basically. It Would Be Cool
