Eurovision Song Contest 2006- Winner announcement and the winning performance 🇫🇮

Thank goodness we sent Lordi in that brief period when the result was only based on televotes.

[@ellem8990]

Hopefully we can go back to that

Thank God now juries appreciate that it is a song contest and not a circus

Great to hear! They opened one day in Finland few years back in our biggest real rockfestival and I was so surprised how good they were.

Back when the winner wasn't decided by jury

[@Mark-Gillis]

*woke jury

[@sanktalucia4959]

It's a song contest, not Europe's Got Talent. Loreen won because the jury is made up of people who work in the industry everyday. They pick winners, not memes.

[@pxter]

@@sanktalucia4959 they have shown time and time again how corrupt they are, and even videos of juries not paying attention to the songs during the jury show

[@legendaryjimbob7685]

Yeah, its song contest about whose got the best song. 2023 would have been landslide victory to Finland, considering the televote count was in top 10 highest ever obtained in the competion's history, but because some "professionals" half of who couldnt even name 5 music genres, much less even be bothered to listen to half the entries. Whose opinion should count more, 37 borderlining incompetent "so called professionals" or tens of millions of people? Judge voting shouldnt even be thing, period. Even for meme to win, it would take tens of millions of people from over 30 countries to make it happen, what are the odds that is possible? Yeah, jackshit. Fck the judges, their music taste is half the time in classical era and anything that isnt either pop or emo is trash in their opinion. For the judge votes to exist, they should made sure to be fans of different genres, not just one to ensure their voting isnt corrupted and pointless

I loved hard rock back then, and hated the eurovision, but My family is scandinavian, and they ofc always Watches the eurovision. So there I was, locked up in My room, playing video games. Suddenly, My mom kicks in the door and tells me to go watch the tv in our living room with her, a band of monsters is about to play. Even thought I thought she was full of shit, I went in. Missed the start, but came in watching while lordi was playing. And oh my, this was fucking awesome! I remember beggin My mom to vote on them, wrote to All My friends they gotta watch this shit. I hoped they win so much, just to watch them one more time. And when she came to My room telling me lordi was about to win, i just had to see the final votes with My own eyes. I'll never forget that night, and me and My friends bought the lordi album and were instant fans after that. What a time to be Alive!
