    Tomi "Mr. Lordi" Putaansuu, the singer who started the band avoids the publicity and very few people even know what he loos like, because he is always suited up for any public appearance. He has said in an interview that he has always been extremely shy around people and the suit gives him the confidence to perform publicly. He has been able to guard his personal life extremely well and even the Finnish media seem to respect that.

      Finnish media seem to respect it because when a tabloid was about to release pictures of Lordi way back when he was relevant the public backlash was so severe the tabloid and it's advertisers got cold feet, people were very upset that they were going to "reveal" him

      I remember there was one celebrity magazine that did publish his picture in the cover, but people started a campaign to turn the cover away (käännettiin lehti väärinpäin) so no one could see the picture. I avoided looking. That caused the backlash if I recall correctly. ​@@renaissancesnowblizz

    Well, this brings back memories! I remember watching this final alone late at night, as my family has already gone to bed thinking Finland couldn’t have any chance doing well. I couldn’t believe my eyes when those points started dropping! In the morning I said to my brother in law that Finland won. He didn’t believe me, until he red the news. 😂

      I remember watching it too! I was 12 at the time, and my dad had gone to bed already but I was waching the points being counted with my mum on our knees on the floor in front of the television. 😄 I can still remember the anticipation! And we went absolutely crazy hearing that Finland had actually won! No one could sleep anymore as we were screaming and dancing around 😄 Then I remember going outside to let our dog out, and we heard someone yelling and singing and celebrating very loudly somewhere in our normally very quiet and peaceful neighbourhood 😄

    @kmikko8438 9 месяцев назад +20

    No surprise that it reminds of glam rock, because Lordi's frontman is actually the founder of KISS Army Finland and he's a huge KISS fan. That also propably explains why Lordi's first ever hit "Would You Love a Monsterman?" has a chorus that sounds like KISS' "I Was Made for Lovin' You"
    By the time Lordi was announced to be our entry for Eurovision 2006, lots of people told that they're gonna move to Sweden if Lordi wins. All of those were silent after Lordi won it.
    Love to watch your videos.

    For a long time Eurovision was kind of a joke for many Finns, because it was more of a competition for Finland to not finish last than to win in Eurovision. According to the statistics I just found Finland has finished last 11 times (including semi-finals) and has got 0 points 3 times, and most other times Finland has been near the bottom of the list. Then came Lordi and surprised everyone by winning. I don't remember how many rock bands have been in the ESC before Lordi (probably not many), but since then some other countries have tried rock/metal with varying success. Lordi and last year's Käärijä are still exceptions and mostly Finland doesn't do very well and often has problems getting into the finals. Unless it's rock or metal, I guess the kind of (pop) music Finns like and keep sending to ESC is not what the general European public likes. Sweden is much better at writing poppy songs that everyone likes. The ESC kind of music is really not to my taste and most years there's only 1-3 songs that I like out of about 40 songs, but I usually still watch it just to see what terrible performances there are and how Finland and the couple of countries I like fare.

    • @Piia2023

      It is kind of funny to watch eurovision because while some (most) performances are pretty universal, some performances are so far from finnish culture. Usually those with half naked ladies throwing their hair and waving their butts not ironically :D I suppose some countries feel Lordi or some others we as finns feel comfortable with are very far from their idea of a good show. And these kind of differences of course make Eurovision great.
