Keep it in Estonian!!

Of course it will stay in Estonian, we have never translated any song for the ESC.

Very good entry again. Some may complain, ok, but is this ESC year, as a whole, gonna be good ? This one will remain way above average.

I think Grete didn't win because juries/people don't want to turn EESTI LAUL TO SVENLAUL.. too bad for them. Grete could be in top 5, winner wont pass to the finale 100%

Well, I hope so!

Would be a pity if it got translated, and I think 2009 and 2012 and the 90's entries speaks for themselves... you simply don't need to translate to get some pretty good results in ESC. Actually, I think Estonian is even helping you out because it sounds really nice ;) Since the introduction of semis, the only successful Estonian entries were in fact in Estonian :)

It's not that bad, certainly not to compare with last year's entry but satisfying, especially considering the weak Estonian NF line-up. I mean we could have ended up with Winnie Puuh....

Wow i'm actually pleasantly surprised with this. It's quite a lovely little song. It's not a desperate, soulless attempt at being "relevant" like a lot of esc ballads this year. It's just a pleasant, uplifting, very well sung number by someone who doesn't look like she's just been handed the lyrics to a song and told to sing it.. *cough cough Russia & Georgia* This will grow on me:p

I like the song, I think it's one of the better ballads this year and it should be in the final. 8 points.

Many songs that weren't that successful last year could actully win in 2013 -.-
OMG WHAT A BORING YEAR!! :( Only 15 songs are left to be chosen and I doubt they will be able to save the edition.

Well, second year in a row Estonia chooses the most boring song of them all. I guess this will be yummy for the traditional ESC-fans.
At least this one has a very pretty melody and together with the language it sounds beautiful. I also like the country-flavour in this song, it fits it well. 7 points.
I wonder when will Estonia send a non-ballad again? :lol:

Maybe because it wasn't written with Eurovision in mind? Birgit didn't even plan to participate in Eesti Laul this year but her boyfriend kept pushing the idea so she did it.
