Finland's musical group 'Waldo’s People' are afraid of losing control at Eurovision Song Contest.
“I got this panic emotion that I cannot describe to you. My world is tumbling down,” sings the group's front man, Marko Reijonen.
Hailed as the best europop act in Finland, 'Waldo' has been ranking as one of the most successful dance music artists for over a decade. His ‘Lose Control’ is a radio hit in Finland.
Waldo says “it’s cool to show the world that other kinds of music besides rock and metal are made in Finland. 'Lose Control' is all about life. There are moments and times when things don’t seem to go right. This song is a way of dealing with the facts of life, and is our way of inspiring people not to give up.”
In 2006, the Finnish hard rock band 'Lordi' scored the most points ever with their ‘Hard Rock Hallelujah,' while Russia came second at the Eurovision in Athens with Dima Bilan's 'Never Let You Go.'
