Finland In The Eurovision Song Contest 2006

The Finnish Final was held on 10 March at the Caribia hall in Turku , hosted by Heikki Paasonen & Jaana Pelkonen. The Finnish viewers chose the band Lordi to perform ''Hard Rock Hallelujah'' at Eurovision. The song was a favourite before the competition and also scored major success when released as a single. Hard Rock Hallelujah is a rock anthem with sophisticated lyrics. The song is written and composed by band member Mr.Lordi.

Lordi is a melodic theatrical heavy-rock band, mostly known for their unusual monster costumes and lyrical themes. The members are Lordi, Amen, Ox, Awa, and Kita who together have released four albums with many hit songs. The members have never shown in public without their masks. Lordi itself says the band doesn't exist without the masks. The selection of such an unusual style of music and stage theatrics has caused a small controversy in Finland and there have been calls for a reconsideration of the choice.
