Re: ESTONIA 2012

When they read out the qualifiers for the final, is this random?

Random order. Full details will be revealed after the final next week.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

When they read out the qualifiers for the final, is this random? Do we know who received the highest vote, down to 5th, and does it release figures on 6th to 10th? I am very disappointed Mimicry didn't make it. It was a top tune. The brunette girl with the female band members playing violin - that is a very cheap song imho. Should have got nowhere near qualifying. Pleased Tenfold Rabbit and Lenna got through - the 2 stand outs in semi 2.

Totally random

Re: ESTONIA 2012

And my prediction vs. reality:


- Teele +
- Lenna +
- Mimicry -
- Soul Militia -
- Traffic +

Re: ESTONIA 2012

What do people think for the final? I prefer Lenna to Ott if these are the big 2, but if there is going to be a surprise I would be happy to see Tenfold Rabbit win - this is a beautiful song too.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Honestly, i have no idea, almost all (except Traffic and Birgit) have equal chances...

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Honestly, my favorite is Birgit. Her song is pretty darn enjoyable even though it might be a little too middle of the road for people.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I disagree about Traffic and Birgit. They are quite on top of the bunch for me!

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Very upset that i didn't manage to see this semi-final. I've been out all day... And I'm on the verge of crying over the fact that neither of my last two favourites made it tonight.
Regarding Cat Eye i was kinda ready in advance that she wouldn't proceed, but Mimicry!??? Their performance must've been really bad, cuz the song in itself was sooo good, imo. Another great disappointment for me this year... Now i will just cheer with all my body and soul that Loss Paranoias will make it all the way

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Seriously peeps! I dunno how many times i have to ask this, and I'm probably getting on some people's nerves, but WHAT IS IT that people find so good about Ott Lepland. I really want to know, because i have no clue. What did I miss in his song/performance/lyrics whatever???

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I really liked Mimicry. Amazing song, amazing artists, their performance wasn't perfect, but let's be honest only Soul Militia and Tenfold Rabbits were the ones who actually carried the tunes on this semifinal. Even lenna didn't sing well tonight. Well I really hope that Tenfold Rabbits wins, but I'm pretty sure that Lenna, Ott or Liis lemsalu are going to win.
NB! I'm so relieved that Orelipoiss-Zombie didn't get to the final.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I'm with you, Knub. Ott is a decent enough tune but nothing special about it. Mimicry was a gem. I worry about Estonia's taste. They selected poorly last year. I hope they don't mess up again. For me, the Tenfold Rabbit song is like something Radiohead could have penned. It is a beauty. But if it's a choice of Ott or Lenna, then it's Lenna all the way.
Can someone explain, how exactly the semi-finals and final is decided. I saw jury members there tonight - did they have 50 per cent of the vote? Did they reveal who was the no1 choice of the jury, or do they just give their overall top 5 randomly? And will this be the same in the final? Surely it is wrong to announce who the jury like best while the public are still voting - this sort of thing will often sway the public's choice.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

nice songs from Estonia tonight. My favorite was Teele Viira.

 

[Knubelznarm]

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Teele Viira is such diva-licious 80's popstar. Great performer, but i think the song is lame. The only good thing about it is the 80's feel...

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Outside of Lenna, Ott and Tenfold Rabbit, the rest are not strong enough to make a dent in Baku. The popularity of Lils Lemsalu is especially disconcerting. This is a tune guaranteed to nose-dive at the finals. It is pure mediocrity.

I think people are "tricked" by Liis because she is beautiful and has a nice voice. But I agree... If you see past that, the song is totally mediocre.
LOSS PARANOIAS ALL THE WAY!!!.... Even though i'm pretty sure their chances are tiny

Re: ESTONIA 2012

I have 1 guestion!

I was just wondering, does anyone know where were 2 members of VIOLINA last night??
There was only the blond one (Johanna-Marie)...The other two weren't there (Daana and Kall).

You can see on this picture members of Violina.

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Valedetektor is my favourite in the final lineup.
