Eurovision has largely been the domain of overly-precious folk songs and cheesy pop music. The years have brought few bona-fide hits; Abba’s “Waterloo” is one of the few Eurovision winners to remain popular outside the confines of this bizarre nationalist relic of a contest. By and large, people seem to treat Eurovision they way they would ballroom dancing in the Olympics: worth watching and cheering for the home team, but otherwise faintly embarassing at best and worthy of savage mockery at worst.
Lordi is about to make things a little more entertaining. The Finnish metal band, with over 40 percent of the national vote, was declared the winner of the Finnish Eurovision finals, and will represent the country with “Hard Rock Hallelujah,” an awesomely hilarious metal opera that sounds ripped straight out of the 80s. Lordi will do nothing to convince naysayers that Eurovision is at all a respectable contest that rewards the musically proficient—look at the crazy-ass masks they’re wearing, for chrissakes. But you can’t help but cheer for a band that has an impeccable sense of fashion and a superb command of the English language. They can conjure words like “arockalypse” and “rockening”—as in “day of”—out of thin air. How did civilization last this long without “rockening” in its vocabulary?
Aside from the obvious underdog factor and the sheer absurdity of a possible Lordi win, I want “Hard Rock Hallelujah” to take home the big prize because it’s about time a cheesy heavy metal song won Eurovision. Why should pop ingenues and folk troubadours get all the glory? If there’s room for a transsexual in Eurovision’s ranks, surely there’s room for five monster-faced, Kiss-worshipping, Finnish rock ‘n roll angels bringing that hard rock.
Hallelujah.

Lordi hard rocks my world! I am looking forward to Eurovision in a way that I haven’t in a long long time and will defintely be tuning in on the 20th of May.
One small but important correction - if its Dana international you are referring to, she is a transexual, not a transvestite.
kevvy-k, April 29th, 2006 at 7:00 amDoes anyone remember when a metal band has got so much free publicity in a media? It’s a long way from the Artic Circle, if you wanna rock’n'roll…

a finn, May 15th, 2006 at 10:36 amGood song, cheesy video clip (=> 100% fitting).
Nick Rivers, May 16th, 2006 at 6:38 amBUT WHERE IS THE GUITAR SOLO?
the first good band in years in the contest. At least Finland knows what music is.
Pascal, May 16th, 2006 at 3:41 pmGO LORDI! Easily the most imaginative song on ESC. I am definitly voting as much as possible for Finland. This makes eurovision worth watching…THE ALBUM IS AMAZING AS WELL.
Str82hell, May 17th, 2006 at 8:34 amHEAVY METAL FANS…KEEP ON ROCKING!
Finally music that is entertaining and …fun! Usually eurovision songs are unintentionally funny this one is real show. Much needed injection of originality among the same-old contestants.
kks, May 18th, 2006 at 7:38 pmThis song rocks. I hope they will win.

We love you Lordi!!!!!!!!!!!
Pyry, May 20th, 2006 at 5:37 pmI’m from Croatia and I just wanted to say that you rock! I love you guys…
Alyx, May 20th, 2006 at 5:49 pmRock On Lordi! About time we got some life kickin’ to the contest.. The Swedes seem to be jealous to the finns to some extent.. however they gave us 12! Someone mentioned about a guitar solo.. they seem to have cut it off since the stage time is quite restricted.. Now it’ll be interesting to see how the contest rocks next year.. GO LORDI, YOU TOTALLY ROCK!
oZ, May 20th, 2006 at 5:50 pmI’m 55, but Lordi rocked my soul (as well as my Sweet Babe’s)! Thank goodness someone had the “mettle” to kick ass at the ESC. It’s of course sad for all the others who worked hard and did a good job, but Lordi brought life (and a valuable message) into the whole thing.
vermonter, May 20th, 2006 at 5:57 pmThe French television when Lordi was performing: “Finland has never won the contest and this song won’t win either.” It was so much fun listening to them after the points started coming!
a finn in paris, May 20th, 2006 at 6:05 pmOh non, but we won! Kiitos!
WELL, LORDI DIDI IT WELL!
AKIS "E-MORTAL ONE", May 20th, 2006 at 6:14 pmHELL YEAH FROM ATHENS, GREECE AFTER THE FIRST METAL BAND HAS WON THIS SHITTY CONTEST! ALL THE HELLENIC METAL FREAKS HOPE THAT LORDI DID SET THE START FOR THE TRANSITION TO SOMETHING ELSE. EUROVISION R.I.P.,
METAL IS RELIGION, HARD ROCK HALLELUJAH, PRAISE THE GODS OF THE NORDIC AND HELLENISTIC PANTHEON!
OH, AND ALSO PRAISE LORDI….AKIS, 26 ATHENS
The same happened here in Switzerland, “finn”. The commentator on Swiss television simply couldn’t believe the popular vote (as opposed to the opinion of those in the apparently highly insightful media) and how the results actually turned out. I love this. Hallelujah!

Holy crap.
Wesley, May 20th, 2006 at 6:37 pmI seriously think Hari Mata Hari should have won.
Maja, May 20th, 2006 at 7:25 pmWe are the winners of Eurovision!
In your face, everyone! In you face, botox-Carola with your copy of Abba’s The Winner Takes It All! In your face, arse-jigglers who didn’t make it into top-3! In your face, makers of boring and safe songs! In your face, Greeks who wanted 40000(!) euros for the pyrotechnics and who broke their own rules by bringing pyros to their own song at the final stage! In your face all who said Lordi would not prevail! In your face you religious fanatics who sued Lordi! Welcome to Finland next year!
L. P. Old, May 20th, 2006 at 7:55 pmFantastic! Awesome! The best song ever by a long shot in ESC. I’m a Finn living in Australia and I can’t wait to actually see them winning it tonite. Long live rock’n roll! Long live Lordi!

It won’t suprise those who know me that I was rooting for Finland right from the begining. I’m so glad they won. The only thing that disturbs me slightly is the realisation that hard rock is going mainstream ‘cos I rather enjoy being in a select group.

Jaghatarsvenska, May 22nd, 2006 at 7:19 amAnd HELLO, IT’S only a show, it doesn’t make Tomi and the other band members satanists or whatever you think they are, they just have their own style in music and on stage! And if you like pop, then go and listen to Madonna or whatever and sut up!
Jaghatarsvenska, May 22nd, 2006 at 7:23 amFUCK LORDI!!!! SUCKS………..BEAHHHHHHHH
DFSDFSDF, May 22nd, 2006 at 7:45 amRock on Lordi!
Congrats from down under! Finland hosts some of the best bands in the world and these guys just add to that list.
About time Eurovision had a band you could not only laugh at but also enjoy the music at the same time! hopefully the start of more to come…
Yeah and i agree with Jaghatarsuenska - Theres plenty of other things to worry about in this world other than “Satanic Music” (not that this even is) so go crawl back under your rock and keep listening to your Abba Albums!
Keep it up Lordi! BRING BACK THE BALLS TO ROCK!

Daniel, May 22nd, 2006 at 12:46 pmAfterwards, I still thought this win would be some sort of a weird prank. It just can’t be true… it can’t… OMG WE WON IN EUROVISION!!! WHEET WHOO! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! And a couple of finns claimed, that if Lordi wins, they’ll move to Sweden. And Lordi actually commented on this that the whole band will come and help with the packing. And some columnist also claimed to eat a hatful of crap (yes, sh*t, poop) if Lordi won! Didn’t think this would be possible? Hope you enjoy your meal! Ehe he he hehee… Don’t know wich is better, Finland, or a hard rock band winning the eurovision. If this would have been, say, a band from Norway, I wouldhave voted for them anyway. I’m truly, truly, so HAPPY! We are the champions! We won Sweden (We even got the full pointsfrom them!) XP! Yay!

capy, May 22nd, 2006 at 3:01 pmI am from Croatia. Lordi are so cool…. but Severina and Moja stikla is the best…. Go go go go Seve
Matea, May 22nd, 2006 at 3:09 pmThe greatest band won this time. The old people in Finland saied that they will move to Sweden if Lordi wins. And it is saied that Hell will frozen before Finland wins in Eurovision. Lordi came, saw and rocked!! Im glad that Lordi was voted for Finlands singer and not Tomi Metsäketo who sings, what i like to call “Granny Pop”.

Dannyel, May 22nd, 2006 at 3:29 pmAs much as I’m enjoying this, I’m closing this thread to further comments. I think the world’s aware of your loyalty to Lordi now. (I think the all caps helped.)
