Picture the scene. It’s 2006. Outsider, Lordi, have won the Eurovision Song Contest. Confused and out of touch officials around Europe scratch their heads in bewilderment. How can something as noisy as Lordi’s Hard Rock Hallelujah win by a land slide? Do the public know something others don’t? What ever the reason, imitation wins hearts and minds so let’s goth up our acts for 2007.
Which is exactly what happened. Especially with Switzerland.
The United Kingdom went all cheesy sleazy and failed.
Finland tried to win again (and this was my favourite)
But when it seemed that outsiders were going to win again, Plan B was put into action and Serbia’s entry won with Molitva.
After that, I lost interest in Eurovision for a few years…..
