The Estonians 2021
Tumblr media
I used to love the Estonian finals. I looked forward to their songs. I can say I have avoided writing this until now because Estonian final and I have fallen out of love, and we now just glare at each other across the room like enemies. There have been some classic songs that are chosen, but for me, their best songs seem to come every three years (give or take) and that ain’t good.
So ERR have a list of songs which they have split into two semi finals that will be performed on February 18 and 20, before their final on March 6. The artists each have a clip of their song and some of them are very good. But I wanted to listen to the songs and I’ve put down my notes from that. 
Semi-final one Tanja: “Best Night Ever” A dance number which will be great on stage with alot of choreography. It has a good sound and decent lyrics.  Hans Nayna: “One By One Hans has an interesting deep voice that is very nice to listen to. The song is quite good, maybe a bit quiet that it is forgotten. Wiiralt: “Tuuled” A very country sound. It’s unique at least and it may stand out for being different from the norm. Kea: “Hypnotized”  Uptempo song with excellent dance beat and good lyrics. Vocals okay, a decent song. Andrei Zevakin & Pluuto: “Wingman” Is it bad it took me 30 seconds to figure out this was not in English? It’s a speak-sing song, and while the music is nice, I’m not that into it.  Karl Killing: “Kiss Me” Sounds quite raw and acoustic which is a nice difference to what you hear in a national final. It does feel a bit juvenile, so I dont expect it to go far. Nika Marula: “Calm Down” This starts quietly and then there is a burst of sound. Like to see this live and see how it goes. Egert Milder: “Free Again” A pleasant and joyful kind of song. I like everything about it. Curious how it will stand up to the competition.  Tuuli Rand: “Üks öö” A fun song to listen to. It has a nice beat. Tuuli has a very generic voice.  Koit Toome: “We Could Have Been Beautiful” A wonderful song that has peaks and troughs and ups and downs. Suits Koit’s voice quite nicely, should do okay.  Kristin Kalnapenk: “Find A Way” Estonian jazz song; the music began and I was waiting on her to start singing, and she already had. The song has a good feel and seems to grow somewhat. Ivo Linna, Robert Linna, Supernova: “Ma olen siin When I saw that Ino Linna was singing, I wasn’t happy. Song is good though. I like the feel and the tempo and everything. 
Semi-final two Sissi: “Time” This lady has a very nice tone to her voice, and it suits the tempo of the song nicely. It is an emotional ride.  Gram-Of-Fun: “Lost In A Dance” Good beat to the song, but the vocals are a bit low and may need to be performed more powerfully to have an impact. I like it though. Kadri Voorand: “Energy”  Sweet, high voice and song played at piano. Interesting song, but Í’m not sure if it has enough to capture the audience. Helen: “Nii kõrgele” Feels like Estonia of the past with some nice harmonies and pleasant beat. Not sure though.  Redel: “Tartu” What is it? It seems to be a joke entrant, but it may not be. The music is great, the vocals are a mix. It feels like a mix of  Meiecundimees üks Korsakov läks eile Lätti and Leto svet. Rahel: “Sunday Night” A different sound to some of the others, but it doesn’t have enough to be competitive in this field.  Uku Haasma: “Kaos” Song is a bit too quiet and forgettable. Sadly, I was more interested in the film it came with than the song itself. Heleza: “6” French and Estonian is a really nice combination. I like it; don’t understand it, but I like the vocals and the beat.  Uku Suviste: “The Lucky One” Vast improvement on last year’s song. Much more interesting and the tone of this song is better. Uku is making the final again. Alabama Watchdog: “Alabama Watchdog” Something to awaken you from the stupor of the Estonian song selection. Heavy in the sound department. Thankful for something new and interesting.  Jüri Pootsmann: “Magus melanhoolia” A vastly superior song to ‘Play’. A mix of strong vocals and interesting music makes it a stand out song in the semi final.   Suured Tüdrukud: “Heaven’s Not That Far Tonight” Not sure about this. It reminds me of something else submitted to Sweden many year’s ago. Hmmm.
Conclusion
I don’t know why I didn’t wait and review these when the finalist were known instead of the torture of listening to all of these. I may come back and change my mind because I’d like to see them performed live before I can say what will win. 
At this stage, don’t be surprised if one of the former winners takes the crown. Of the others, Alabama Watchdog seems the best,

Tumblr blogger national selection season problems
Looking forward to the national selections, until you realise you can’t watch them on TV because you’re not from that country.
Most of the national selections get aired during dinnertime. This means having dinner/supper early or with the laptop, which is even harder if you still live with your parents because they don’t understand why you are so hyped about some TV program that does not happen to be broadcast in your country.
Lagging streams.
Or worse: streams not being available for your country.
Switching tabs because you want to watch the stream and liveblog shitpost at the same time, therefore missing some of the show.
The show is obviously(unless it’s either the national selection of your home country or Eurovision: You Decide) spoken in a language you don’t understand.
Having to watch multiple streams at the same time because you want to follow multiple national selections. 
Missing that awkward moment everyone suddenly talks about because you have been switching tabs in order to post something. Again.
Complaining about your fave not making it.
After the final, you spend the rest of the day/week/month/Eurovision year wondering why your favourite or everyone’s favourite of the show didn’t win.
Click on [read more or whatever it is in your country] for more relatable content, specific for a certain national selection. Feel free to add more!
Melodifestivalen
Keeping track of every good joke that is made.
And then realising you have missed that one moment when that host kissed a fully grown man in the audience directly at his mouth. 
F*ckboys winning over quality.
Having to keep track of all the röstningsrekords, because the previous ones are being broken pretty much every night.
Loads of LGBT and feminism.
You think Sweden will never send something like Euphoria again because of the f*ckboys and all the other participants but you still watch it, because of the amazing interval acts and you constantly wonder if Sweden could send one of those to Eurovision instead of the trash that’s called the participants.
Sanremo
Every. Single. Thing. Is. In. Italian.
When the show has started, 25 minutes of talking and commercial breaks follow before the first participant has even performed. 
And after a participant has performed, they start talking again and there are random interval acts and commercial breaks.
As a result having to stay up until 1 AM to see all the participants for five days straight.
Therefore struggling not to get bored while watching.
And getting out of bed each morning afterwards.
Being extremely happy that the the one song you desperately wanted to win wins, but then getting extremely disappointed because the artist you desperately rooted for refuses Eurovision participation.
Bad roasts.
Eesti Laul (+UMK and Söngvakeppnin?)
Okay, Swedish is hard, Italian is hard, but Estonian (or Finnish, or Icelandic) is not a popular language to learn. Because it’s HARD.
If the winner is everyone’s fave, everyone’s wondering why THE HELL Estonia/Finland/Iceland did not qualify.
And then, you’re desperately hoping for a song like Meiecundimees üks korsakov läks eile lätti, Hatrid mun Sigra or Hard Rock Hallelujah will ever represent Estonia, Finland or Iceland again.
