Yes Lordi won Eurovision, but what will happen next year in Helsinki, are we going to see a floodgate of kiss impersonators entering the competition or even more diverse and downright weird offerings, I hope it gets weirder as it can’t really get worse can it? The Finnish English language blogs I read covered it well, Georg blogged it live, Darren links to Silvia surely the highlight, and phils got the winning picture!
Oh and we all complain about those voting patterns I mean Russia’s Rubbish got 10’s and 12’s from virtually every country worried about its gas supply friendly neighbour! Some boffin has called this the Gravity Model, yes it’s a real scientific theory and has been written up with reference to Eurovision. Itresembles international trading patterns apparently.

They deserved it purely on the strength of the lyrics “the arockaplypse”, “on the day of rockening”. Genius!
Mathaios, you are right they were the best. Also it was the most entertaining Eurovision I’ve ever seen…….er maybe I should get out a bit more!
Eurovision is pure comedy. Best one ever gor me was a few years ago when I was in Greece. I threw a Eurovision party and had about fifteen different nationalities present. Was just the best fun ever. Highly recommend doing that!
