Estonia ESTONIA 2021 - Uku Suviste - The Lucky One

[escYOUnited]

Wonder if it ever crossed your mind
That what we had was really unbelievable, unbeatable, a miracle
Why'd you have to go and mess it up?
Why'd you have to make what was unbreakable shakable, unsavable?
And now it's too late to cross your fingers
I'm wide awake and not a dreamer
Hate it, but it seems the dreams were never true
For a little while the fates were with us
Wonder why they had to turn against us
I could make a wish, but there is no use

I can feel
Even though I'm numb
The change to come will hurt someone
I can see
This time it isn't me
I might be the lucky one

I don't need a crystal ball to show me
Baby, it is plain that you don't know me
When it comes to you I'm better off alone (Better off alone)
I don't need a crystal ball to make me
Realize that if I stay you'll break me
Every sign is saying I should be gone
I should be gone

Thought I had a cloud over my head
It had to be my fault that it kept raining down
Until now, I figured out
That if I had the nerve to say goodbye
I could look for clearer skies up over head
Weather says sun instead

I don't need a crystal ball to show me
Baby, it is plain that you don't know me
When it comes to you I'm better off alone (Better off alone)
I don't need a crystal ball to make me
Realize that if I stay you'll break me
Every sign is saying I should be gone
I should be gone

I can feel (Even though I'm numb)
The change to come will hurt someone
I can see (I can feel)
This time it isn't me
I might be the lucky one

I don't need a crystal ball to show me
Baby, it is plain that you don't know me
When it comes to you I'm better off alone (Better off alone)
I don't need a crystal ball to make me
Realize that if I stay you'll break me
Every sign is saying I should be gone
I should be gone​

Ugh, I always forget Estonia start half a day ahead of everyone else.

Did anything worth of note happen?

 

[AliceEsc]

Yay Juri, serve!

 

[crashworld]

Juri definitely brought it. Simple staging, yet effective. I don't like the song though. But I don't mind it going through. The vocals are great.

 

[EscGeek]

I originally thought I'd accept Alabama Watchdog's explanation of "we are just raising discussion points without really voicing / having an opinion", but eventually, no, I don't buy it.

Musically speaking, easily the best of the night. Too bad their song gives way too much room for interpretations I deeply disagree with, even if those interpretations might not be intentional (eventually, I am rather convinced they are)...

but you were the one who perfectly explained that the lyrics can be interpreted in many different ways

 

[BarefootBoogaloo]

I love all the museums we've gone to tonight, so educational

 

[NikolaiMoller]

OMG OMG OMG

WINNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BarefootBoogaloo]

I'M READY TO PARTY WITH YOU, LADIES!

 

[HayashiM]

but you were the one who perfectly explained that the lyrics can be interpreted in many different ways

Sure, that's true. What eventually made up my mind was the overall package and the 'Your opinions are no longer valid' news title (I just find way too many people in my live hiding ignorance and laziness by 'opinion'). All single elements can be explained somehow. Overall, I am just not convinced.

 

[NikolaiMoller]

Best vocals of the show, fun, uptempo = should be the winner here

watch them flop

 

[NikolaiMoller]

OMFG + KEY CHANGE

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Ana Raquel]

TALENTED
BRILLIANT
WINNER

 

[HayashiM]

Suured Tüdrukud

 

[estonia]

Suured tüdrukud had the best vocals of the night. Hands down! Also loved the part when the backing singers appeared.

 

[bstream]

That song had the best vocals and melody in the entire national final

 

[crashworld]

Suured tüdrukud serving the vocals of the night. It's pretty enjoyable. But then it reminded me of San Marino 2017, so I am not sure if there is appeal for them.

Just based on vocal performances:
1. Suured tüdrukud
2. Juri
3. Uku S
4. Kadri
5. Alabama Watchdog
6. Can't pick

 

[HayashiM]

My final rankings:

Suured Tüdrukud	Heaven's Not That Far Tonight
Gram-Of-Fun	Lost In A Dance
Sissi	Time
Kadri Voorand	Energy
Uku Suviste	The Lucky One
Helen	Nii Korgele
Uku Haasma	Kaos
Heleza	"6"
Rahel	Sunday Night
Jüri Pootsmann	Magus Melanhoolia
Redel	Tartu

Go Suured Tüdrukud! Feel free to win the entire competition

suured > redel >>>>>> you can order the rest >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> lockdownma watransphobiadog

 

[estonia]

After the performances my opinion did not change. Rooting for Uku Suviste, Kadri Voorand and Suure Tüdrukud tonight.

 

[EscGeek]

Sure, that's true. What eventually made up my mind was the overall package and the 'Your opinions are no longer valid' news title (I just find way too many people in my live hiding ignorance and laziness by 'opinion'). All single elements can be explained somehow. Overall, I am just not convinced.

That news title also has a double meaning.

#1 "Politicians are doing whatever they want and they are manipulating you the best they can to get their way, your opinions are no longer valid"
#2 "We weren't disqualified just because some fans got angry, your opinions are no longer valid"

But i won't convince anyone, so i better stop.
