ESTONIA 2013 - Birgit Õigemeel - Et Uus Saaks Alguse

[musicfan]

Basically they made it louder for those who don't have the attention span for a quieter song. I don't think the louder instruments are really needed to create any more excitement, but at least they haven't changed the melody which some here seemed to want.

 

[Alberca]

The 2:22 reminds me of last year's Pastora Soler, but shorter. I liked this song very much already with no changes, I hope Eesti gets into the final again!

 

[musicfan]

It's nothing like the Spanish song last year though, which was a naturally more dramatic latin styled song. Nothing wrong being a quieter ballad.

 

[ParadiseES]

This is one of those songs that don't bother me, but it just does NOTHING for me. Forgettable.

 

[Waterfall]

The girl is ADORABLE and I love the changes, I'm rooting for her~

As for the order, it's bad because it's early, but I was sure that the second position doesn't specifically have the same ill-fate as in the final. :?

I meant just the change in 2:22.

Waste of time (not only for Estonia,but anyone else do this)

Birgit is apparently pregnant

Birgit as usual gives a strong performance. No doubt the reason for the loud moment they added near the end is to get the attention of the part of the Eurovision audience that is only half listening to the songs, as usual at these things most of them are just talking while the singing is happening. I suppose that part of the audience has to catered for, which is sad.

 

[SRBIJA]

That was some nice performance indeed.

And that new ending is seriously making this song even better. Good luck

 

[SRBIJA]

Birgit is apparently pregnant

Yes, she is

 

[Waterfall]

She did a great performance, good job Birgit. I really wish she gets to the final.

Waste of time (not only for Estonia,but anyone else do this)

Fun for language fans like me. I'm not complaining.

 

[musicfan]

I think the lyrics are pretty good on this song, but while they very stupidly still don't put subtitles on songs in Eurovision those in another language will always be at an unfair disadvantage.

How much do you think it will help?

How much do you think it will help?

That's hard to say, but I think it should be done anyway, after all the lyric writers were creators of the song too.

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

Lovely song I think this will probably qualify.

 

[A-lister]

Lovely song I think this will probably qualify.

It's a pretty nice ballad indeed, but I think it'll struggle to qualify though

 

[ParadiseES]

Too forgettable to qualify IMO + most of the strongest songs in this semi are in the beginning and that can damage Slovenia and, especially, Estonia.
