Lordi

I'm pretty sure, if lordi would win this years contest, then next year everyone would wear pretty costumes and play "death metal".

:lol: The Eurovision "Death Metal" contest would be great - everyone dressed up as Tolkien characters playing ironic 80s hard rock songs about Satan!
 
It wouldnt really be that interesting seeing as Sweden would obviously win before the contest even started lol

I get the impression that when they played the group stages everyone in Finland with a sense of humour phoned everyone else and said "Get the fucking tele on" (in Finnish) so..."arvioida naida televisio model after"

I used an online translator so if one of you Finnish people wants to translate that a little more idiomatically.


The rules of the contest prevented finns from voting Lordi, just like they prevented any nation from voting their own candidate. That means Lordi made it to the final with the help of foreign voters, not finnish ones.
Your sentence "arvioida naida televisio model after" doesn't make a slightest sense but literally it goes "estimate screw (or shag) television model after". What is that supposed to mean?
 
Lol...I thought the entrants were voted for by the country they came from and then once the competition started it was the other countries who voted for them? Perhpas not, I've no idea how Eurovision works.

And as for the translation, like I say it was an online translator, perhaps not the most reliable. Please taranslate it more idiomatically, thanks.

Finland 1 - 0 Powers.

Yes, you are right. That's how it went.

What the hell you want me to translate? I still have no clue :cry:
Ok, maybe I got it.
"Get the fuckin tele on!" is "Telkkari auki vittu perkele!" in finnish
 
I'm reading in the news (Dutch) that greek conservative organisations want Lordi banned from the eurovision.

The Union of Greek (female) Scientists, the Tower of Piraeus and the Centre for the Coordination of Hellenism lodged a complaint against them to the EBU (European Radio Union, organiser of the EV). Lordi cultivates and extenuates satanism and undermines the foundations of the greek and european culture, according to them.

I thought these people died centuries ago.
