TERÄSBETONI Advances To EUROVISION Final

According to Helsingin Sanomat, Finnish heavy metal Eurovision hopefuls TERÄSBETONI carried the nation's colors into the final last night.

The band's "Missä Miehet Ratsastaa" (“Where [the] Men Ride”) was among the ten songs selected by SMS and televoting to go forward from the first semi-final.

An advance poll of Eurovision fans had also dropped TERÄSBETONI narrowly outside the top ten, and a snap poll among users of Helsingin Sanomat's online portal also got it wrong, with 62% predicting that the band would not make it.
