Oh Lordi – whatever happened to the competition in Eurovision?

The Russians did well, but I think the song was alright, but was definitely improved by the Olympic ice skater…
Not entirely sure, but does that mean that the visual aspects of a song make it sound better? You can find some clips around the webscape if you want to see what I’m talking about.
Not that I’m one to knock the power of images with music, it’s just that was meant to be a song competition!
Just about everyone recognises the Rolling Stones ‘tounge and lips’ image, possibly because Mick Jagger has a similar look…
By comparison, The Beatles image was limited to spelling – plus some amazing photos.
I think the idea of the Eurovision competition is in danger of being a talent show with a predictable result. Two years ago Finland supplied a ‘Monster Metal Rock Band’ who Read the rest of this entry »
