Eesti Laul 2017 was confirmed already three weeks ago, so I guess Mart Normet and ERR were happy how EL'16 went and will do it at the Rocca Al Mare Arena (Saku Suurhall) again.

I hope that in 2017 Estonia will be back to their previous 2009/2011/2013-2015 approach, namely sending songs that aren't fanwanked but that reflect the quality, the modernity and the "un-Eurovisionness" of the Estonian music scene.

Well, okay then, that's confirmed.

Eesti Laul 2017 final will be held on 4th March 2017 and tickets will go on sale next Thursday (5th May).

i hope anett kulbin tries again in 2017, she was robbed of a place in the final this year.

Huh, Rockefeller Street in 2011 was one of the most fanwanked entries we've ever had, in 2013 and 2014 we had songs that won largely due to their "Eurovisionness" while beating songs that actually became big hits in Estonia (Päästke noored hinged and Für Elise).

Eesti Laul 2017 to allow collaborations with foreign songwriters/producers in some capacity. Working on rules that would still retain a strong Estonian core.

Bloody hell, Mart, why... why?!?!

[SpZ]

Someone should organize a petition against that.... Mart Normet is seriously being lame. He basically said that he wants G:son to write entries for the national final.
