I find Lordi's music incredibly boring. This so called "hard rock" is music for sissies. When I need energetic music I listen to extreme death metal bands such as Brujeria.

The uproar is just hype the pathetic tabloid newspapers have created trying desperately to increase their sales. Almost 50 percent of the voters voted for Lordi and only half a dozen (religious) people are against it here in Finland. The band is just playing along, talking about low self esteem and stuff, and trying the get as much attention as possible, positive or negative (personal opinion). The whole uproar thing started when some greek restaurant society stated aloud their concerns and finnish tabloids reported about it and then the snowball just started rolling.

You gotta love those Euro contests, football, singing and stuff.
So your contester is performing in english too. Well that sucks. I think every country should use their native language only, like it used to be at some point.
