Eurovision is gone ridiculous or should I say even more ridiculous. All this bloc voting is stupid. Finland votes for Sweden votes for Denmark votes for Lithuania votes for Latvia votes for Estonia votes for Russia votes for Ukraine. Who cares about the songs! Even we and Brits got in the act and voted for each others songs. It's a song contest not a fancy dress joke or it used to be.

The truth is that the only countries in Europe that write and perform good songs are Britain and Ireland. The trouble is that Britain stopped taking it seriously years ago and now send only leftovers and we are afraid to win it again because we already won it seven times and the TV company doesn't have the money to stage it again.

The truth is most Europeans are can't hold a note;) :p . No wonder the Brits, Irish and Yanks dominate the world of rock and pop music.:aok

Somebody took a few clips of the other Eurovision contest songs and put them together with Lordi, and included bits of the vote counting and the final song. This gives some slight perspective how different the Lordi song was to the others - and definitely some idea how enthusiant, orgastic the Finnish announcers were :)
