Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah - 🇫🇮 Finland - Grand Final - Eurovision 2006 Winner

We are already counting down to the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest in Baku. We do that by looking back to recent editions of Europe's favorite TV show. This time we go to 2006, when the contest was held in Athens, Greece.
Lordi represented Finland in the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest with the song 'Hard Rock Hallelujah'. They won the grand final in Athens and brought the contest to Helsinki in 2007.

[@andrewp.8278]

@@qq84 well, their victory seems to be legit, because this format is unusual for this show, and I guess it consolidated the rock fans(even those who were indifferent about this show previously) all over the Europe to vote for them

[@rowo2774]

Actually the jury creates balance because ethnic groups more often prefer their mother country (just analyze audience votes over the years). Therefore smaller or less populous countries like Finland benefit from the jury. Russia nearly won that year with a song probably no one here remembers.

In France, both french commentators were just joking about this performance with condescending comments. Watching Lordi winning this show was... quite... very satisfying.
