Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on April 20, 1972)

Happy Birthday, Željko! May your day be filled with more joy than the moment you almost conquered Eurovision in 2004. Honestly, second place never sounded so good—your voice still echoes beautifully across Europe!

From "Lane moje" to countless hits afterward, you've proven that silver medals can shine brighter than gold. Your melodies have become timeless classics and continue charming generations of fans worldwide.

Here's wishing you another year full of unforgettable performances and catchy tunes—and perhaps finally getting revenge on Eurovision judges someday! Until then, keep singing loud enough for all Europe (and beyond) to hear—we'll always award you our personal douze points!
