Laura would have had a worst results than Jüri, especially in this semi-final already filled with too many women singing pop songs. Hopefulyl next year Estonia will dare to send something more alternative and original (Bring back Mick Pedaja, Go Away Bird or I Wear* Experiment please xheat)

I wish Jüri all the best but even though I like his song I seriously don't care if he qualifies or not.

This will be the biggest flop of this year IMO. The performance is quite boring and so is the song. Juries will love it but Televoters won't give a damn. If this was in Semi 2, then maybe Juri would get through but in Semi 1 he virtually has no chance.

This is still my favourite song and it will remain my favourite even if it doesn't get out of the semi.

I agree. The song itself is really great but it flops really fast. It's not consistent.

I wasn't crazy about the song to begin with and I can't say that the performance swayed me. But that doesn't mean it was bad, it just was there and it was good enough I suppose. It's a tough Semi and I have a hard time placing this anywhere in my ranking. It seems to be fairly well liked but i just don't know if this song is for the masses. I'm looking forward to friday when the entire Semi gets to rehearse in one day. I'll have a better idea at that point or at least feel more comfortable casting my vote in the press voting. And I don't know if I was in a good mood but every artist that I talked to today was incredibly nice and likeable. Juri just seems to be having the time of his life. We were the second to last group to interview him. He was in that little cabin for a long time and as soon as I walked in, he greeted me by making funny faces and just screaming HEEEEYYY. He's actually quite energetic which I didn't really expect. Geez, I'm doing it again. I just get attached to the artists now and want all of them qualify, regardless of the song quality.

Wait, posts can just be directed to the trash bin by expressing an opinion someone disagrees with? Damn, why didn't I start utilizing this earlier?

Just when I thought Juri couldn't be any more awesome, he goes and says: "I think it's important for us to feel each other and 'come' together," in the interview. :lol:

Easily the most down to earth guy in the contest in the last couple of years. The fact he has the best song of the contest is such a bonus.

No one cares for this... Found it on the 2nd page even though second rehearsal happened a while ago xcry

Which brings me down to business: what's with people's costumes this year? This suit doesn't fit him, it's like it belongs to someone else. What was wrong with his national final suit anyway? Someone could please fly to Estonia and fetch it, please? Thank you!

Vocally perfect xup

I thought his national final performance was spot on as well, but I guess it'll come down to the broadcast to see whether the Casino Royale theme worked out or not. In regards to 'no-one caring for this,' it's probably because Juri's been consistent in his rehearsals, and there's been little changes. Its not as newsworthy compared to the other flops that are happening and the multiple Barbara Dex awards being handed out.

I would have thought our song will do better ... I mean, of course we don't know yet how it will do, but the lack of interest and support is pretty discouraging. I still want to believe that we will be a "dark horse", because I personally still see a lot of potential in this song, but even being a dark horse should have SOME signs predicting it could be so, but I don't see any signs??? Well, I haven't looked for them carefully either, has someone? Do you believe it could be a dark horse?

Actually a good sign is that it pisses of some people. I mean - it at least has the potential to trigger strong emotions, people aren't lukeworm :D

I'm so nervous now. Juri absolutely deserves to qualify but sadly might be forced out of the top 10 by the rubbish from :gr:, :at:, :az:, :ba: etc. I don't want to lose my favourite in the semi stage two years in a row xcry

The song is average, however his voice is really epic and it improves the overall impression to the better side. It is quite ok, and I believe he will qualify tonight without problems.


5 points.

I still think this is a great song with the wrong singer. It would be so much more convincing if Jüri could give it more punch. Visual presentation is also less than stellar. Anyway, it can still qualifiy although I will not be surprised if it doesn't.
