Lordi wins Eurovision Song Contest

Finland has won the 51st Eurovision Song Contest, after a gripping competition in front of a capacity crowd in the Olympic Arena, Athens.

With the heavy metal anthem ‘Hard Rock Hallelujah’, Finnish rock band Lordi won the contest after an audience televote.

These guys are just plain bizarre, they make KISS look like a bunch of normal musicians.

“How weird is this? How cool is this?” said lead singer Mr Lordi. “Think about it, a rock band just won a pop song contest. This is weird, strange, interesting. We won the contest, looking like this. It just goes to show that Europe is not such a bad place.”
