Teräsbetoni was considered a bit of a novelty band among all the big and super serious Finnish metal bands. And also heavy metal was kind of a thing in Eurovision for a couple years after Lordi so i think some got a bit bored of it. I mean this song and band is great and now I appreciate this a lot more than then, but i guess some thought that we could have sent something better too. Anyway this is one of the best entrys ever from Finland imo. Also I think our metalheads are not so much into power metal as other metal genres.

For me, this is a gem that I'm appreciating much more today, than I did in the past. I think the reason it didn't do so well is because the audience was kinda tired of the genre during that era. I mean they did send 3 metal songs in a row (2006-2008). I feel this entry would have felt much more fresh among the audience today.

These dudes were the best this contest has ever seen. There were also a few bands that were good and Lordi is not included in this number. Because you can't compare a circus troupe with a real heavy metal band. Otherwise, this competition is so-so. Even Johnny Logan was pretty bad in 1987, and he has one of the best songs this show has seen. But who cares about quality, isn't it? 🙂
