Eurovision uproar

Category: music

Looks like the Finnish Eurovision entry is causing quite a stir in Europe (or in Finland, anyway), they even made it to the news tonight. Apparently, Lordi are just too ugly for the European stage and Finns are ashamed of sending such a travesty to the contest (I must have blinked through the part where ESC stands for good taste). Now correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t the Finnish contest decided by public voting? It’s a freakin’ democracy, get over it. The last time anyone noticed the Finnish entry was when we got null points. …oh hang on now… Doh!See what Lordi are already doing? I might just vote for Finland this time, the whole thing is turning out to be quite entertaining!

    I listened the Hard Rock Hallelujah song and it wasn’t bad at all. Appearances can be deceiving..

    That song is our national protest against eurovision song contest..? Actually it sounds quite much like 80’s hard rock - it sucks.
