  1. Birdie

    "Sing, Little Birdie/310389" target="_blank">Birdie is the 1959 UK Eurovision entrant song that took second place at Eurovision 1959. Performed by husband-and-wife duo Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson, "Sing, Little Birdie" was the first UK Eurovision entrant to be recorded reaching #12 in the UK charts. Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson performed "Sing, Little Birdie" in the first semi-final of Eurovision Song Contest (ESC)/British Finals — the national preliminary round for the UK in Eurovision 1959 — on 2 March 1959. The duo also performed in the second semi-final of ESC/British Finals on 5 March 1959 with the song "That's It, That's Love", making Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson the only act to ever perform two songs in the same multi-artist formatted UK Eurovision pre-selection round; the duo also being double-entered in the national preliminary round for the UK in Eurovision 1960. Polly Brown would perform two contending songs in the UK pre-selection round for Eurovision 1976 but as distinct acts: herself and as a member of Sweet Dreams.

Examples of birdie in a Sentence

  1. Park In-bee:

    I didn't play too aggressively on the front nine but wasn't able to do what I wanted to do, but I was able to make a birdie on nine and that kind of got me started on doing things.

  2. Adam Svensson:

    Just stay patient. You hear a lot of people say that, pars are great out here. The odd birdie here and there is great. So I'm just going to go out there and have fun tomorrow and enjoy it.

  3. Russell Henley:

    I've played pretty well here so far. Hopefully I can have another good week here. The one thing I've always noticed, what changes for me, or what I am more aware of, is my attitude, i'm a little bit tougher and I'm a little bit easier on myself on this course. Because it's so hard, I know that if I can just hang around and keep making pars, maybe grab a birdie; if I just hang around the best I can, I feel like that's what you have to do.

  4. Martin Kaymer:

    I made 80-85 percent of the realistic birdie chances, it’s only halftime. There are always some guys who can shoot the same score I did in the first two days, so I approach tomorrow the way I approached this morning: very neutral. It’s nice to have a bit of a cushion, hopefully, but nothing has been done yet.

  5. Jon Rahm:

    You have to battle it. It's very difficult. When it starts raining, you start getting water on the club face and balls start being a little bit unpredictable, a lot of it honestly, is the short game. It's hard to hit all the fairways. It's hard to hit all the greens. You have to grind out the pars and make the best of the few birdie putts you have.
