Lordi Frontman's Shocking War Criminals Discovery Inspires New Song

The home's scary past inspired the lyrics for House Of Ghosts, which appears on Lordi's latest album Scare Force One which was released at Halloween.

Mr Lordi tells Sleaze Rocks: "It's my grandparents' house. It's at least 79 years old, built in 1935. No-one knew what the house was used for until recently. My grandparents bought the house when my dad was young, maybe six or seven-years-old.

"The Second World War was going on. The wallpaper has been on those walls since 1939 or 1940. When we started renovating the house, we started taking off the wallpaper because we wanted to remove the old wood. What we found under the motherf***ing wallpaper is that there are actually written messages in Russian on the walls.

"I didn't know any Russian, so I called my friend who knows some, and she came and said, 'Oh my God, these are cries for help.' We had discovered that the house that I'm living in, that is my home, was actually one of the Nazi's radio controlling centres. I had no idea. Nobody ever told me. My relatives never told me that."

Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon Do Nerdy Third Eye Blind Cover

The two--both with impressive curly-haired wigs--can't get to sleep so they decide to stay up and have some fun, starting with Truth or Dare. "Is it weird if it's just two boys?" Timberlake asks. Of course not!

Soon, Timberlake is revealing he has a crush on Kimmy Gibbler from Full House and talks about his full beard and you know, what's going on down there.

The two then have a little fun singing their favorite song, Third Eye Blind's "Jumper," even doing a little harmonizing. But since it's after lights out, they have to be quiet. Of course they can't do it. I mean, it's "Jumper"!

Watch the clip to see what happens to the two singing campers when their counselor catches them here.

Queen's Brian May Explains Why They Teamed With Adam Lambert

Queen first teamed up with Lambert in 2009 to perform the band's rock anthem "We Are the Champions" on American Idol's season's eight finale. Lambert and Queen partnered again in 2011 at the MTV European Music Awards in Belfast. In the summer of 2012 they performed their first live concerts together with three sold-out shows in the UK at London's Hammersmith Apollo as well as concert appearances in Russia, Ukraine and Poland. While 2014 saw the pairing tour the world.

"We didn't look for this guy, [but] suddenly he's there, and he can sing all of those lines," May continues. "See, they're difficult songs to sing, Queen songs. There's too much range. So many people can't sing them in the original key - even if they are good singers. Adam comes along, he can do it easy. He can do it in his sleep!"

"He can sing higher than even Freddie could in a live situation. So I think Freddie would look at this guy and think, 'Hmm� Yeah. Okay.' There would be a kind of, 'Hmm... You bastard. You can do this.' And Adam also has this presentation, I think. He is a showman. He doesn't have to try. He is a natural, in the same way that Freddie was."

"Some people walk on a stage and they're able to do this, and they're able to connect with an audience. And Freddie had it, without a doubt, and Adam has it also. So for a band this is very important. Everybody's doing their thing, but you need that connection, you need that channel, and Adam is great."

Paul McCartney Appears On The Daily Show With Jon Stewart

The two of them riffed for a while about the pure absurdity of a legendary musician writing music for a video game. McCartney describes how he first encountered video games--'I'd see my grandkids playing them"--and began playing, and soon enough 'I was Mr. Cool" (and not cool because, you know, he's a Beatle.

Then the two get into an extended riff on the idea that McCartney would rather be making this guest appearance on Ellen. 'No, no, I'm really happy to be here," the rocker claimed, sticking his tounge into his cheek in a gesture of disdain.

He tells Hangar 19: "It's just like a marriage. We decided to take a little break from each other. I went to go jam with Helmet for a year and a half of f***ing the best fun. Page Hamilton, John Tempesta and Chris Traynor, we had a ball.
