I beg to differ. I remember it, and it will go down in my book as the best winner of Eurovision ever. I think Lordi will be pleasently remembered by many because they did something outrageously special and memorable. Most winners, however, are forgotten. Sure, I can name some 90s winners, but do you remember any winners after Y2K except Lordi and (obviously) Alexander Rybak? Cuz I don't. Okay, I can slightly remember 07, and I was reminded by 08 this year, but 00-02, 04 and 05 are completely lacking from my memory (remember winner of 03 because of who came in 3rd, hehe)... but 06, damn 06 surely is fresh in my memory. Whether you like the song or not is of course a matter of taste
