it will be popular with the i-pod generation.. very safe song should qualify the final.. then who knows.. i'll be safe too and give it five points

I agree with you on the iPod generation, and safe song comment. They could have been more courageous and send Hopaparei (but that song was just repetitive imo, even though it had great instruments). This song isn't hard to like, I like it A LOT more now than before :)

Woohooo! Glad Getter Jaani won! I watched Eesti Laul and it was an awesome NF overall! This is my favourite song so far, Estonia ftw! :D

I listened to the Semi final performance which I think was a lot better (vocally that is) so overall it is probably the best pop song of 2011 so far. It's catchy, it's modern and it somewhat stands out. Good effort from Estonia and I wish them the best of luck.

Solid effort by Estonia! Quirky and unique song although not exactly my type of music.

a 7 from me.

Well...it's pleasant and fresh but I prefer my Estonia mysterious and haunting like 2009 and 2010.
5 pts.

Best song have won ! I was scared that OutDamnz would win it. But public wanted a true Eurovision song. Directly to top of my list. Will get my vote surely.

WTF? This song is so confused :lol: The verses are awesome but then the Rockefeller Street bit comes in and completely ruins it :? And then the Keep Moving bit is just...random. Still, for the awesome verses and intro I'll give it 4 points.

A good choice! I think this will be recieved well by Europe as a whole. One of the better songs this year, thank god! Up tempo, cute, not amazing but not average ether!

Just watched Ithaka's performance. I like Getter, but Hopa'pa-rei! is fantastic. I like the repetition too. I think for foreign language songs, the only words non-speakers can pick out in the lyrics is the title. Therefore it makes sense to put the title of the song front and centre. Ithaka would have been my favourite entry of 2011 (as would have Jamala, Zlata, Trackshittaz...).

At least Estonia's next-best song is a good one. I can still cheer Estonia on in May.
