Eurovision 2002: ESTONIA’s song: Runaway – Sahlene
In the lead-up to Eurovision 2000, many people thought Estonia would win. They had a fantastic song, and struggled in about 4th. Last year, they had a song so crap that I struggle even now to remember the tune of it, and it won. This year, they’ve chosen a song which is more similar to the 2000 classic (Once In A Lifetime, sung by Ines), but sadly, it’s just a pale imitation of it. It’ll do okay, picking up a few ‘host nation’ gratuity votes on the way, but it won’t set Tallinn on fire, and their early draw (8th) won’t help either.
