passionpop Estonia has won one Eurovision, debatably one more than they deserved. That was in 2001, though you might think it was in the 1970's, except that Estonia have only been in Eurovision since 1994.
The song from Estonia is getting me back to the club/party songs of this years Eurovision, which i haven't missed. it isn't the strongest of that genre, or the weakest, so it might be the second final for Estonia since the introduction of the semi.
OK, ignore the 1.5 verses of lyrics, the ill-fitting dress and princess singing the song. Yeah this song is lame, but the performance is pretty neato. I have even put down the glass I am drinking from and I still think this is a good little performance. it wont win, but it brings this act from being a toilet break song to something that could be potentially good to watch.
I am still impressed by the appearance of that baton. i love acts in Eurovision that seem to pull random props out of their arse. I am unimpressed by the dancer with the 'bleached sides and black top' hairdo THING! so it all balances out to be average, which defines Eurovision really, really average.
Getting back to better memories for Estonia, maybe. Home ground advantage sometimes helps, but the cost of Hosting a Eurovision is high. unfortunately the only cost cutting appears to be in Sahlene's skirt. Maybe KFC was a sponsor in 2002, so she was promoting the thighs?
