Estonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024

Estonia was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 with the song "(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi" performed by 5miinust and Puuluup. The Estonian participating broadcaster Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) organised the national final Eesti Laul 2024 in order to select its entry for the contest. The national final consisted of two shows: a semi-final and a final. Fifteen songs competed in the semi-final and five were automatically qualified for the final. A total of five songs qualified from the semi-final: three were determined by a jury panel and public vote and two were selected solely by the public vote. In the final, the winner was selected over two rounds of voting. In the first round, a jury panel and a public vote selected the top three to qualify to the superfinal. In the superfinal, "(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi" performed by 5miinust and Puuluup was selected as the winner entirely by a public vote.

It was later revealed that Estonia placed sixth out of the 16 participating countries in the semi-final with 79 points. In the final, Estonia performed in position 9 and placed twentieth out of the 25 participating countries, scoring 37 points.

Background

edit
Main article: Estonia in the Eurovision Song Contest

Prior to the 2024 contest, Eesti Televisioon (ETV) until 2007, and Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) since 2008, had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest representing Estonia twenty-eight times since ETV's first entry in 1994, winning the contest in 2001 with the song "Everybody" performed by Tanel Padar, Dave Benton and 2XL. Following the introduction of semi-finals in 2004, they had, to this point, managed to qualify to the final on nine occasions, including in 2023, when "Bridges" performed by Alika placed eighth in the final.[1]

As part of its duties as participating broadcaster, ERR organises the selection of its entry in the Eurovision Song Contest and broadcasts the event in the country. Since its debut, the Estonian broadcaster had organised national finals that featured a competition among multiple artists and songs in order to select its entry for the contest. The Eesti Laul competition had been organised since 2009, and on 5 July 2023, ERR announced that it would organise the 2024 edition of the competition, thus confirming its participation in the 2024 contest.[2]

Before Eurovision

edit

Eesti Laul 2024

edit

Eesti Laul 2024 was the sixteenth edition of the Estonian national selection Eesti Laul, which selected the Estonian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024. The competition was held between 20 January and 17 February 2024 and was hosted by Tõnis Niinemets [et] and Grete Kuld.[3][4] Like in previous editions, Aleksandr Hobotov and Julia Kalenda provided Russian-language commentary in the live shows of Eesti Laul on ETV .[5]

Format

edit

In July 2023, ERR announced their intention to apply changes to the production team of the selection, with Tomi Rahula stepping down from his position as chief producer after five editions, as well as to the format of the competition.[2] Karmel Killandi [et] was later revealed as his successor.[6]

On 15 September 2023, ERR specified the details of the new format. This included only one semi-final on 20 January 2024 and a final on 17 February 2024. 15 songs competed in the semi-final and the top five qualified for the final, joining five automatic qualifiers for a ten-song final. The results of the semi-final were determined by the combination of votes from a 35 (or more)-member jury and public televoting for the first qualifiers, and a second round of public televoting for the remaining qualifiers. The winning song in the final was also selected over two rounds of voting: the top songs selected via the combination of a 9-member international expert jury and public voting went through a second round of televoting to determine the winner.[3][7]

Competing entries

edit

A submission window for interested artists was open from 15 September until 23 October 2023, with each applicant able to submit a maximum of five entries. At least 50% of the artists and/or songwriters for a submission were required to be nationals or residents of Estonia, with a lower fee imposed on Estonian-language songs compared to songs in other languages; both of the fees were doubled for entries submitted in the last two days before the deadline.[3][7] At the closing of the application period, 215 entries had been received – 88 in Estonian, 126 in English and one in Italian.[8]

The 15 semi-finalist entries and 5 finalist entries (plus two backups) were selected by a 41-member jury composed both of professionals and non-specialist music listeners, who were not informed about the identity of the applicants until after the selection took place. Selected artists and entries were announced during the daily broadcasts of the ETV entertainment program Ringvaade on 6 and 7 November 2023.[7][9][10][11] Despite being set to be released on 8 December 2023, some were leaked the previous day.[12]

Among the selected competing artists was Laura, who represented Estonia in 2005 as part of the group Suntribe and in 2017 alongside Koit Toome.

Preparation and promotion

edit

In accordance with Eurovision regulations, which prohibit any reference to trademarks, mention of Lay's chips was removed from a verse of "(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi" ahead of the contest.[28] As part of their participation in the contest, 5miinust and Puuluup attended the Barcelona Eurovision Party on 6 April 2024,[29] the London Eurovision Party on 7 April 2024[30] and the Nordic Eurovision Party in Stockholm on 14 April 2024.[31]

At Eurovision

According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 30 January 2024, an allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in. Estonia was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 9 May 2024, and was scheduled to perform in the second half of the show.[32][33]

Once all the competing songs for the 2024 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the shows' producers rather than through another draw, so that similar songs were not placed next to each other. Estonia was set to perform in position 13, following the entry from Belgium and before the entry from Israel.[34]

In Estonia, all shows were aired on ETV with Estonian-language commentary by Marko Reikop, on ETV with Russian-language commentary by Aleksandr Hobotov and Julia Kalenda, as well as on ETV2 with Estonian Sign Language interpreters.[35]

In addition, ahead of the contest, ERR again organised and broadcast the Eurovision preview show Eurovisiooni laulud [et] between 31 March and 5 May 2024; hosted by Eesti laul presenters Grete Kuld and Tõnis Niinemets, each episode featured a panel composed of television personalities and members from the public who discussed and evaluated the competing entries,[36] ultimately decreeing a number of favourites – namely Austria, Cyprus, Ireland, Italy, Norway and Ukraine.[37] As part of the Eurovision programming, ERR also cooperated with DR and SVT alongside other EBU member broadcasters – namely ARD/WDR, the BBC, ČT, ERR, France Télévisions, NRK, NTR, RÚV, VRT and Yle – to produce and air a documentary titled ABBA – Against the Odds, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Sweden's first victory at the contest with "Waterloo" by ABBA.[38]

In late March 2024, the Estonian postcard, to be shown before the country's performance in each show, was filmed. Filming took place in the same industrial area in Estonia where the music video for "(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi" was set.[39]

Semi-final

edit

5miinust and Puuluup took part in technical rehearsals on 30 April and 3 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 8 and 9 May.[40] For their performance of "(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi" at the contest, they were all dressed in black.[41]

At the end of the show, Estonia was announced as having finished in the top 10 and subsequently qualifying for the grand final. It was later revealed that Estonia placed sixth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 79 points.[42]

Final

edit

Following the semi-final, Estonia drew "producer's choice" for the final, meaning that the country performed in the half decided by the contest's producers.[43] It was later revealed that Estonia would perform in position 9, following the entry from Spain and before the entry from Ireland.[44]

Estonia once again took part in dress rehearsals on 10 and 11 May before the final, including the jury final where the professional juries cast their final votes before the live show. 5miinust and Puuluup performed a repeat of their semi-final performance during the final on 11 May. Estonia placed twentieth in the final, scoring 37 points: 33 points from the televoting and 4 points from the juries.[45]

Voting

edit
See also: Voting at the Eurovision Song Contest

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Estonia in the second semi-final and in the final. Voting during the three shows involved each country awarding sets of points from 1-8, 10 and 12: one from their professional jury and the other from televoting in the final vote, while the semi-final vote was based entirely on the vote of the public.[46] The Estonian jury consisted of Alice Aleksandridi, Olavi Pihlamägi, Rolf Roosalu, Sten Teppan, and Kaire Vilgats.[47] In the second semi-final, Estonia placed sixth with 79 points, receiving maximum twelve points from Latvia. In the final, Estonia placed 20th with 37 points, receiving twelve points from Latvia in the televote. Over the course of the contest, Estonia awarded its 12 points to Latvia in the second semi-final, and to Switzerland (jury) and Ukraine (televote) in the final.[48][49]

ERR appointed Birgit Sarrap, who represented Estonia in the 2013 contest, as its spokesperson to announce the Estonian jury's votes in the final.[50]

Detailed voting results

edit

Each participating broadcaster assembles a five-member jury panel consisting of music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent. Each jury, and individual jury member, is required to meet a strict set of criteria regarding professional background, as well as diversity in gender and age. No member of a national jury was permitted to be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.[51] The individual rankings of each jury member as well as the nation's televoting results were released shortly after the grand final.

The following members comprised the Estonian jury:[47]
