Estonia ESTONIA 2022 - Stefan - Hope

[escYOUnited]

We let them tell us what to do
Why why why
We live to die for worthy things
Oh ya ya ya

We promised we would never lose our pride
Your word's worth nothing if you lie
We're standing tall and looking up, our Father would be proud
And I'm happy to be working my own ground

We'll be the last ones breathing here

Hey, sing your heart out boy
For all the people great and small
Oh, when all else is lost
The future still remains our own

We're taught that we were born to lose
But why why why
Don't waste your breath, it's time to choose
Oh ya ya ya

We promised we would never lose our pride
Your word's worth nothing if you lie
We're standing tall and looking up, our Father would be proud
And I'm happy to be working my own ground

I said
Hey, sing your heart out boy
For all the people great and small
Oh, when all else is lost
The future still remains our own

I hope

We let them tell us what to do
Why why why
We live to die for worthy things
Oh ya ya ya

No matter what they try, tearing up our lives
I know we will always rise

I said
Hey, sing your heart out boy
For all the people great and small
Oh, when all else is lost
The future still remains our own

I hope

The future still remains our own

I hope

You'll get Monika Liu from Lithuania

I wanted to reply to this post with a GIF depicting "I´m Not Your Mother"´s live performance by Lolita Zero.

When I googled "GIF Not Your Mother Lolita Zero" - Google warned me about the fact that child pornography is illegal.

WTF!!!!!

Yeah okay I mean I'll be okay with Monika Liu even if it's just a 8/10 but Lolita Zero is just a big NO

In fact she has an accurate name 'cause her song is literaly ZERO

 

[A-lister]

Yes 'cause there's a difference between my 1st winning and my 8th winning even if both are 10/10s

Or maybe they aren't actually 10s you are just having some inflations in your scoring?

Yeah they are 10s but I seriously should start giving 11 and 12/10s

 

[EscGeek]

Yeah they are 10s but I seriously should start giving 11 and 12/10s

That's literally the definition of inflation

This is the leaderboard after all the contestants gave points to each other.

Still baffled by the horrible selection in the final. Why did we organize public quarterfinals is beyond me if the final is still filled with mandatory trope songs (good ol "one oldie to fill the viewer demographic" in there too). Minimal Wind, Stefan and Ott are my favorites because they clearly stand out. The way songs like Vaikus and Laululind were left out, eh.

Vote for Ott Lepland - "Aovalguses", I beg you!

 

[kamc]

All this “Sandra” hate is sad
I hope the Estonian public really get behind them tomorrow night and push them into the super final!

Ah, but you're not a synth-head. For many of us purveyors of electronica, it is a sublime piece of #darkwave - a hypnotic, John Carpenter-esque, electronic odyssey. Pure analog brilliance ... with completely nuts staging

The artist's taste is just as bad or even worse than the taste of the general Estonian televote, impressive

 

[Daybreak]

Terminaator, the band that's pretty much the flagship of Estonian rock, will perform during the final.

 

[mauve]

I think I won't watch the show tonight since it seems that Stefan will win anyway. I will concentrate on the other shows where things are more open. I just hope that there will be a surprise and that Stefan won't win with this boring song.

Laululind was pretty bad though if you ask me, and Vaikus while nice was nothing write home about still.

I find it pretty mindblowing that the adjective: fair (in Polish sprawiedliwy) is ebaõiglane in Estonian. It just comes across as otherworldly too me for some reason.

u are absolutely overreacting right now lol

and btw, laululind was terrible (vaikus should've qualified over mis nüüd saab though)

 

[laululind]

Hope we get a good show tonight! Let's see if anyone can improve, or what the ones we've not yet seen live have to offer. I think most of the frontrunners would have some chances to qualify come May (tho' some clearly need a massive overhaul), but Stefan feels like the one with best odds to be on the left side of the scoreboard if he does qualify. But first let's see who actually comes out on top tonight. I'm going to guess the superfinal will be Stefan, Sahlene and Ott. Seem like the most logical combination considering both tele- & jury votes. But could maybe see Elina or Stig sneaking in there too, if juries don't bury them. Maybe Jaagup, if he gets a big jury boost? Anyway, not long to go until we find out!

 

[ZoboCamel]

Would be happy with either Stefan or Anna (though still sad to miss out on the other, since both are quite up my alley in a below-average Eurovision year). Hoping for one of those to take it!

 

[AlekS]

ELYSA will perform live tonight:

 

[Mainshow]

I will keep my fingers crossed for Stefan as well - I don´t like the song and I think it´s ridiculously dated BUT I can totally see this song work in Eurovision (like qualifying, attracting jury votes and televoting alike) whereas "Champion" sounds like a cheesy, formulaic Eurovision-cliché which would definitely be tanked in the semis. It´s not 2005 anymore.

I´m still hoping for a miracle and see Elina win this whole thing but Stefan would probably be the "most promising" act regarding Eurovision.
