ESTONIA 2012 - Ott Lepland - Kuula

Re: ESTONIA 2012

Please someone.

THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY! Still, no one has answered me: What is it about "Kuula" that is so damn special??????????
To me "Kuula" is the epitome of a meaningless fan-hype-favourite. What a disaster it would be if Ott Lepland won. Not only are there better songs in the final, but out of all these interesting and innovative songs, people choose the most conservative and old-fashioned as their favourite
The other fave, Lenna, has a much better song imo, but even "Minna Jään" is a bit old-fashioned compared to some of the other songs.
Don't miss this chance Estonia! Even if it will effect your result in Baku, I wish people would risk voting for something INNOVATIVE. What a waste of good songs...

I actually posted it a few pages back.

Ott sounds like an old Estonian favorites Alo Mattiisen and Tõnis Mägi.

and that's very powerful emotion for Estonians, because both were big idols for us.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

If he even consider it, I will no longer support his entry!

However for me it's currently between Ott, Lenna or Loss Paranoias.

I meant about understand how good it is. Even though English will totally make it 100% worse. Estonian is the best and most beautiful language for this masterpiece =)
But if he is going to release some singel or something, then he can try English lyrics, but he never sings in English

Re: ESTONIA 2012

The sickener would be if Lenna or Ott won, and changed their songs to English for the final, as they would more than likely fade into the background. In Estonian they are both beautiful songs. But I admire Estonia for its competition to fins its representative this year. The quality of its 2 semi-finals was exceptional and it is great to see and hear more leftfield/indie tunes given a platform like Mimicry and Tenfold Rabbit. This would also make it somewhat disappointing if Ott or Lenna won. It's good and refreshing when a nation sends something different which is why I would be delighted to see Tenfold Rabbit win. I doubt they can. I cannot imagine enough people voting for it. It seems more and more that televote equates to the teenagers' choice with SMS multi-voting - I think this is a troubling development for the ESC because I do not want to see a contest being dominated by teen-friendly pop tunes that are all about image/slick choreo and young, attractive male singers.

And people say that "language doesn't matter". You just pointed out two very good examples of where it matters VERY much.

Nobody would translate their song for Eurovision, I can assure you that.

Actors Tiit Sukk and Taavi Teplenkov have now been officially confirmed as the hosts of the final. Interval clips between the songs will form a side-competition for finding "the right Estonian". Sukk and Teplenkov will play different Estonian stereotypes who are all competing for "the right Estonian" title. These sketches are written by Andrus Kivirähk.

Oh, how I adore this picture xromance
Seriously people. How genius is it to write a song about a "lie-detector"? The music video is also amazingly cute & original. Seems like a very creative band?
I so wish this masterpiece won't go to waste. The rest of Europe will miss out on a great song... in fact, the greatest out of all the songs in Eesti Laul, if you ask me

Ott will win, Lenna will lose in super final.

Do you know how many will enter the superfinal?

- Ps. to me it would be ridiculous if Ott won with such a plain and dated song. I don't care about the allegedly 'beautiful' lyrics, because no matter what, the song will still be insignificant to me. And after all, it's the song that counts.

:? Only two!? Oh my god, this final will probably be too nervewrecking for me to watch... I'll probably only watch the performances, then leave in fear of the worst
