Aaaand they're in! Mor ve Ötesi is a very nice and handsome Turkish rock band with attitude. What are they doing in the silly old song contest anyway? Their exclusive Eurovision website, Delirium.fm, is documenting the whole escapade.
Here's the first rehearsal:

About us
Tinet - after many years of studying among other things the Russian language and the cultural history of Russia, the Soviet Union and the Middle East, she has moved to one of the many cities of her dreams (Berlin, Germany) and works as a gun for hire for various publishing companies with typesetting, graphic design, translating and writing, besides drawing comics about funny Russians. She dreams of making big fat richly illustrated coffee table books about the images of Central Asian, Caucasian or Russian men from a cultural historic angle.
Ainur - Ph.D. of History at the University of Lund, Sweden, who in her research has focused on nationalism, identity and stereotypes, mainly in the context of Finnish views on Swedes. She also draws historically correct comics about the Jazz age in the 1920's, which also deal with nationalism, identity and stereotypes, in a quite entertaining way.
Tinet and Ainur are sisters, and their ethnic background is as follows: 62.5% Finnish, 25% Mishär Tatar, 12.5% Kale (Finnish Roma).

Nooo ... I prepared a whole entry about them already, and you beat me to it! Damn you internet companies for not giving me internet at home soon enough!
I guess I'll revise my entry a bit.
Okay, I always comment twice lately, once before I read the post and once after I've read it. XD
Well, what was Lordi doing there? Maybe when Lordi won, the Turks realised that there was a chance for *real* music in the Eurovision ...?
Sorry!! But it's better to have lots of entries about them, isn't it?
