Tonight is the big night!!

Or not. Whoever wins the Eurovision song contest tonight, will still fade in the spotlight compared to the Finnish contribution, Lordi.

This is not only my opinion, but by comparing search results on google for the last month, it is clear that the northern org like creatures have received some attention, at least in the searches.

The above is a google trend comparison of Lordi, and the two highest seated contributions, as estimated by various betting sites. Although I must admit that the actual music sucks, Lordi is a cool new turn to the lame, old fashioned, and more and more eastern European inspired show for people who speak and sing horrible English. But the fact that the music sucks, doesn’t seem to matter, as it apparently is a requirement for entry to the contest. I would have loved to see some orgs performing some real metal, like meshuggas “war” or something similar, to the eurovision “who got the most friends among bordering countries” contest. But maybe next year….
