Irish singer Johnny Logan and Finnish hard rockers LORDI have made history by collaborating on two iconic Eurovision Song Contest winners.

The collaboration saw Logan releasing his own pop-rock version of LORDI's metal anthem "Hard Rock Hallelujah", while LORDI joined forces with former BATTLE BEAST singer Noora Louhimo to release a metal version of Logan's legendary classic power ballad "Hold Me Now".

LORDI leader Mr.

Lordi stated that the collaboration emerged during a spontaneous phone call between him and Logan, where they quickly discarded an initial idea for a duet in favor of a song swap.

The outcome was two Eurovision winning songs rearranged and recomposed in new styles, with Louhimo's powerful vocals bringing "Hold Me Now" to new heights.

Despite Logan being unable to appear live at the Eurovision Song Contest this year due to an Ireland-supported boycott, he expressed his delight for LORDI's participation and praised their energetic performance of "Hard Rock Hallelujah".

With Noora Louhimo working on her second solo album and a tour set for release in 2027, she is currently pursuing her career as a full-time solo artist.

The collaboration has been hailed as a unique pleasure by both LORDI and Logan, with Mr.

Lordi expressing pride and humility over having these iconic voices join their band for this special anniversary celebration.
