  • 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.

    The thing that often goes unsaid about this is that, despite it causing confusion at the time, the song is literally one of the most fitting songs ever performed at Eurovision. Instead of being some unrelated love ballad its whole premise is about how music can bring people (or demons and angels) together and put differences aside. That's the whole premise on which this contest was founded.

      In the semi-final that was the Netherlands, they finished 20th out of 23 countries and did not qualify for the final. In the final Ukraine was performing after Finland, but they did pretty good, finishing 7th out of 24 countries.
