  1. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    There aren't any juries in the semis any more, like last year. Which, this time around, I'm quite glad for. :LOL: Our qualification odds would probably plummet if they were still there! At least with televoters, there's a chance we might make it. :giggle: And if the juries dislike us in the...
  2. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Eh well, at least we're pretty close to the end of the show and didn't get the earliest possible slot in second half. :giggle: Also there's a pretty big possibility there will be a small break between us and Italy, for the hosts to introduce them. Seems unlikely they'd have the "guest...
  3. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    I'm pretty sure 99.99% of the general audience won't remember a song from 2006, other than the winner perhaps, so I doubt them having similar suits will really be an issue in this regard. :LOL: Much more likely some might think "oh, another Käärijä copycat!", but nothing to really do about that...
  4. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Uh, well.. I imagine they're actually singing, yes. :LOL: With 6 people already on stage, there's no room for hidden backing vocalists. I suppose there's a chance they might be using pre-recorded backings during some parts, hard to tell.. but if they weren't singing at all, their live...
  5. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    So they will actually do some pre-parties, was wondering about that! Back in the day, Estonian acts never used to show up! :LOL: But in recent years, they've been much more active in this regard. Alika was all over the place last year! :LOL: I guess they have more time/money to spend, or maybe...
  6. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Yeah, people who like countries to send relevant acts should be happy! 5Miinust is one of the more popular bands we have right now and Puuluup are well known & respected in their genre. :giggle: Definitely not some random unknowns who only show up in Eesti Laul every other year. :LOL: Tho'...
  7. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Expected result, once it was clear the juries didn't sink 5Miinust. :giggle: Happy with the winner, tho' kind of sad for Ollie at the same time. :LOL: That's the trouble with having several favorites! Our first proper rock entry will have to wait I guess. Not sure he's going to be up for...
  8. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Either 5Miinust or Ollie will be fine by me! :LOL: So here's hoping one of them will be the winner and we'll get a fun show overall! :giggle:
  9. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Uh, ERR, honey.. I wasn't actually making a suggestion! :LOL: There must be a die-hard ballad fan working in ERR, making those running orders! Trying their absolute best to give them a push of some sort. :unsure: No idea why else they'd have this obsession with ending their shows with such...
  10. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    I don't think the main problem for Brother Apollo will be not being Estonian or (possibly) bad vocals, it's just the song itself. :LOL: I'm not sure it will have as much appeal as Ollie or Bedwetters last year. I'd think, if they were in contention to get a great result, there'd be at least some...
  11. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    My family prefers Ollie this time around. :LOL: And the amount of online love & feedback I've seen about Ollie does lead me to believe he'll do pretty well this year too. We got lots of "everyone I know likes Ollie!" last year, but Alika still won in the end. At the very least I'm expecting a...
  12. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    What an anticlimactic choice that would be. :LOL: Truly cement our reputation as the country who always picks the bland mid safe songs, no matter what we have on offer. But we certainly can't rule it out. Very hard to judge tho', since he hasn't performed yet. :unsure: Feedback so far is all...
  13. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Well, he was 3rd with the juries last year, so I'm not expecting him to completely flop this year either. Of course the jury members will be different so in theory they might hate rock. :LOL: But since he's got decent vocals & overall package, I don't see him lower than midtable with juries...
  14. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    No arguments from me! :LOL: And I think there aren't too many people that think like that.. but I've definitely seen a few comments of that nature. 5Miinust is great but not for Eurovision, they'd probably flop, Ollie would do better. I imagine most of those people like both songs anyway.. would...
  15. Estonia ESTONIA 2024 - 5miinust & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi

    Well, the first two didn't have any semi finals at all so that probably helped. :LOL: Also the '09 edition (and semis from 2011 onward) being studio shows rather than big live concerts. But yeah, if EL was a bigger priority, they could probably find more money at the expense of some other stuff...
