The history of Estonia in the ESC is a sad story. Once such a great participant in the contest, have for some time falling deeper down into the horrible Eurovision Abyss of bad quality. And now, it seams like they've hit the bottom.

Wow, pretty early for preview shows isn't it?!

Yeah, unfortunately Estonia's entry is a bit disasterous this year... They'e done well in the past though.

The NOS should be broadcasting previews too. Various broadcasters in Northern and Eastern Europe show them on primetime but in the Netherlands we don't even do them on daytime !

guys , this year is not going to win a baland, its very hard for a baland to win in esc, i thing this year is going ukraine or russia is going to win, beacuse for sure is going to pass to the final ,and all ex soviets countreys who didnt pass they are going to give 10 or 12 points to russia or ukraine ( even and some countreys from ex-soviets who past also to the final like armenia and azerbaijan) who is 95% in the final they are going to vote with huge points russia and ukraine. also the immigrants from all ex-soviets countreys( moldova,belarus,russia,georgia ,ukraine etc) who lives in the others esc countreys , and its toooooooooooo many they are going to vote russia and ukraine, but personall i see ukraine to take the 1 place since many people who is not immigrants is going to vote for ukraine also beacuse they like the song. for me in the final in top 10 places i see that 12 countreys ( the two of them is going to stay out ;) ) russia, ukraine,greece,turkey,sweden, serbia, ireland ( oh my god :() ,romania, swiss, iceland, portugal and armenia

@ J K

I completely agree with you, Estonia should have picked "365 Days" - it's actually surprising that they didn't considering Birgit won Estonian pop-idol! Either that or "God Inside Your Soul", I love it so much and I first heard it on my birthday! Actaully I love all the songs from Eurolaul... :)

I love all of Estonia's entries (maybe 2003 a bit less than the rest of them), in fact I think I just love Estonia :) And I know it sounds wierd but I actaully like "Leto Svet"...don't ask me why!
