That "up up up" bit in the Swedish song is annoying as hell. I love Eurovison but there's too much anonymous Europop written by Swedish hacks clogging up the competition these days.

Having said that the worst songs were Germany and Denmark, which were sort of snootily anti-Europop singer songwriter bollocks that sounded like they were written on the back of a fag packet

per comments upthread, I had to remind myself that I was watching Eurovision with friends, rather than on ILX, when this appeared:

It was one of previous Eurovision winners Lordi, wasn't it? Ah, how I yearn for those glory days...

Yes that was Mr. Lordi, of Lordi.

YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT COUNTRY IS THIS, RIGHT?
Lordi made a horror film called Dark Floors a Finnish friend described as "terrible, absolutely terrible". It's streaming on Lovefilm in the UK so i'll probably end up watching it, though.
