ESTONIA 2012 - Ott Lepland - Kuula

[Milos-BC]

I liked every Estonian entry starting from 2009, but this is not my taste..........the song is too flat and boring.

The singer is great, but the song does nothing for me.

 

[Den]

I think Estonian is the most beautiful language in the world. Really. I'm in love with it afrer Randajad.

Very nice song, I hadn't noticed it at the beginning, but now I've started to like this song very much.....And out of the three versions above, I prefer the spanish one.....

 

[Marie Jane]

Spanish version so beautiful

 

[RainyWoods]

Im not particually keen on the english version. Lyrically it's abit... meh really, although Ott does sing it beautifully in any language. The Estonian version however is stunning and probably the biggest grower this year for me. In places the song is abit generic (or at least it starts that way) but it builds beautifully and theres no denying the power of the song when it explodes. It's stunning and ends beautifully, rather like an Antony and the Johnsons song. Im very fond of the song now.

 

[WhoKnows]

Love the English and Russian versions.

 

[Jetro]

Best ballad of this year. 8 points

 

[eerik]

All three translations were done by the same guy - Stanislav Bulganin - so no wonder why the Russian version sounds so good.

Director Rene Vilbre from our delegation commented the 1st rehearsal and said they were happy with the sound but the visuals were not what they wanted. The Germans promised to make it better.

[Matt]

I should start charging my friends 30 Euros to attend my birthday party

ESC opening:

 

[eerik]

Our backing singer Marvi is ill with some stomach problems and the bus broke down on the way to rehearsal so our team was 30 minutes late. Not a good day.

Hopefully this not lucky day will change to very lucky day on Thursday ^^

I want Ott to see sooo badly in Final
Before I wasn't sure at all that he can make there. (I loved the song, but others didnt) But this all seem to have changed.
I don't care which place will come in Final, but I want to see Ott in Final =)))

 

[voteme]

Not really given this much of a listen, think it could top the second semi though...

 

[Godfroid]

I don't know if anybody already post this, but this is weird...

Even the sounds from the start are the same...

 

[Marie Jane]

Honestly, i don't see any similarities.

 

[eerik]

I see no resemblance. There are songs that are surprisingly similar to Kuula, but this is definitely not one of them.
