I think Cosmos from Latvia were the best. Unfortunately Eurovision is not about the best musical performance. It think the show would we better with Jurys voting.

Now it would be great that some other bands of this genre could particpate next year and then the eurovision would gain tle popularity that once had 8)
Nah please not. One time is great, but I don't hope there will be many imitations next year in Helsinki..Then it becames the opposite...then it becomes a rock festival and a pop song will win :lol: Nah don't think that but still..

Lordi blinddating:

- How do you recognise him?
- He promised to wear a flower on his buttonhole.

BTW, buttonhole (napinläpi) is conjugated wrong in the Finnish version.

Seconded. I knew there was no way they were going to win but I just had to do it. They told us to "vote for the winners" which I couldn't do in Finland so I voted for the funniest song :wink:

Any idea where they're going to host the event? My knowledge of Hellsinki is not that great but I couldn't think of any place big enough for a huge stage and a crowd that doesn't lok pathetically small on TV.

I think the most probable places are Hartwall-Areena or Helsingin Messukeskus.

The song wasn't great, and the outfits were completely stupid, but I'm glad they won, simply because it was different. It certainly didn't tie in with most people's perception of what a Eurovision song should be, so they should be commended for that!
Bravo Finland!

I didn't vote for nothing 8)
I already thought they would make it in the top5..but number1 no..It really surprised me that Greece gave them 12 points..I thought such a country may find them satanistic or something like that..
But anyways it's just great!
Lordi on paras indeed! 8)
I'm not surprised. There' a big Metal community on Greece, I guess that they all voted on Lordi.

Now I wonder, whos will represent Finaland next year??? Nightwish??? Amorphis??? Stratovarius??? Sonata Arctica??? :mrgreen:

It would be great if it would be Sentenced but unfortunately they have split-up last year.

"Napinläpeensä" would be correct.

Nightwish once tried taking part in the ESC. But back then the national contestant was chosen by a committee of music "gurus", who decided Nightwish was too barbaric to perform internationally or something like that :D
