ESTONIA 2012 - Ott Lepland - Kuula

Re: ESTONIA 2012

We agree on at least one song I thought this was a gem too and should have represented Estonia

Hmm, this is an interesting song to agree on haha, 'cause I don't really see it fit your "idea" of quality music you presented in the other thread.

Anyways, glad to see we agree on something, and that more people liked that one.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I think POP Maniacs song is so brilliant. There is no solo part for anyone so it's really difficult to sing off cue. Always someone there to support you vocally.

Hope they pull off the choreo and singing. Then it could be a definate winner.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I think Rockefeller street by Getter Jaani was PRETTY AMAZING a song in 2011. Even my nickname "Metafeller" is coming "Rockefeller" (;
I just wanna say that, Getter Jaani is in my top 3 of 2011 songs. And in 2010, song was so weird. It was cool. I wish we could see Estonia in Final in 2010.
And finally, 2009 song "Randajad" is in my top 3 of 2009 songs, too. Estonia has so so so much good songs in this contest. I hope you will have a cool song again in 2012.

Yes the song was great! Too bad she didn't score higher but whatever!

As for this year, I think it's an uphill battle for Estonia. Nothing really seems to stand out and I think anything they do pick has a good chance of getting lost in the semi.

Music video for POP Maniacs' "I Don't Know" will be released tomorrow.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I really don't understand what makes everyone like Kuula that much?? I don't appreciate music like that, because i just think it sounds too corny and unimaginative...
I think there's a lot of innovative songs with beautiful melodies in this NF. It seems Estonia has a very nice music scene, and i love it! I'm hoping for either Valedetektor, ride, A Little Souldier, Tantsulõvi, The Destination or Mina Jään

Music video for Mimicry's "The Destination" will also premiere tonight @ Eesti TOP7.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I love The Destination! It sounds to me like a nice ethereal 80'-inspired dance song, but there's nothing "wooow" about the music video though. It's just fairly entertaining.
It's clear that Estonia takes Eurovision seriously. In Denmark I don't think a band similar to Mimicry would ever participate in the NF

Re: ESTONIA 2012

What a great tune by Mimicry. Disagree strongly with those who say Estonia offers nothing this year. Also like Lenna and POP Maniacs - a fabulous, eclectic selection. All would be worthy of a place in Baku.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Nice song by Mimicry. I think, it has good chances in the NF.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I'm begging all Estonians to vote for Mimicry. Amazing song and I like the video too. Simple and stylish.
