Estonia in short Estonia started of their Eurovision carreer with a non-qualification in 1993 and a penultimate place in 1994. After a year of rest in 1995 though, they came back strong with a string of top-10 finishes, culminating in a surprising victory for Tanel Padar, Dave Benton and 2XL in 2001. However after another good showing at home the year after, thing went rapidly downhill. The only Estonians to be spotted in a Eurovision final after 2003 were some spokespersons and four Ninja girls scoring big points .. for Switzerland.
In 2007, Gerli Padar showed us that Eurovision success does not run in the family, and stayed in the semifinal as well. 2008 Kreisiraadio were selected to be Estonia's first joke entry (unless Silvi Vrait is counted). They will sing the multilingual Leto Svet. |
