Minimal Wind went through one of the most beautiful underdog stories I've ever seen in a national final. Firstly, they got drawn into the most competitive quarterfinal, and yet they managed to get through at the last second with the help of juries. After that, they again got drawn into a stronger semifinal, surrounded by favourites. And they even got COVID before the shows, leading to the MV being used instead of their live performance. And when they weren't in the juries' top 4, all hope seemed lost. Yet somehow, they made it through in the second round of voting. But the final was extremely competitive this year. Ex-Eurovision participants, artists with decades of experience, and small little Minimal Wind - the only debuting finalists. Yet simply through masterclass performance and a well-written modern song they managed to charm the hearts of juries, completely demolishing all the other favourites. And when it seemed like televote would abandon them in favour of flashier songs like Champion - they persisted and got through to the superfinal. And even there they went as far as they could, beating a big public favourite in a 100% televote round, landing in a very respectable second place. Not a single story is as impressive as the story of Minimal Wind, and I hope we'll hear more from them in the future contests. Minimal Wind - sa oled mu uus lemmikbänd. Armastus Venemaalt! ♥♥♥
that is so true. minimal wind are the real winners of eesti laul for getting second place in the most fame-based national final of europe. hope to see them back
This song is unique and relies on simplicity and sincerity. Sometimes, this all you need. It is worth mentioning they gave the most professional performance yesterday.
Great performance. Very great staging, great vocals as well and just a very mysterious but fun song. Im very happy they finished second place. They definetly deserved it.
Would be such a statement win for Eesti Laul. Some of the favorites are copies (if not plagiarized) and some tracks are just dull and suitable for local radio. Really original and strong track this one.
Looks like a jury favourite. I really like the intimate atmosphere and the subtle but effective staging- but think, if chosen, needs a revamp, to make sure it doesn’t get lost in the running order in Turin! 💛🇪🇪
I don't think this would have done that well in Eurovision had it been chosen (it would've done well with the juries obviously but I don't think it would've got the televote support to Q out of the semi, as much as I wish it could) but I keep coming back to it. It's such a simple song but the performance is mesmerising. Excellent vocals, excellent instrumental, excellent performance. It's just awesome. Hoping they'll come back in the future!
Kahtlemata stiilsem ja ehedam esitus selle aasta Eesti Laulul. Ega ei olnudki eurolugu, oli liiga hea selle konkursi jaoks. Noored esinejad, ruumi arenemiseks veel küllalt. Kui nad samamoodi jätkavad, siis võib juhtuda, et üks päev sattun isegi nende kontserdile.
both of the first 2 spots are from Viljandi, which has a very cool school with a jazz specialty. my other hometown, which baaaaaadly needs a concert hall.
Beautiful song with an even more beautiful performance! Although Stefan was my winner, this would really thrash the ESC juries! And most people had them as a sure elimination in first round... Hopefully they will go for 2023
i love stefan but stefans song is literally just avicii hey brother and elysas voice is too weak. saying that this song is "boring" shows u have no idea what ur talking about when it comes to music
How can you even call a song with a original and unique topline 'boring'? A song doesn't need to be flashy and upbeat to deliver a message or a feeling. This song had the authenticity that most other songs lacked in this competition.
Watch "Chanel - SloMo" who will represent Spain this year and then think about Elysa again whose performance was lack of energy. If you do something then be good at this or otherwise it's gonna be a failure. And Chanel is very professional. So as Minimal Wind and Elisabeth Tiffany are so talented collective and the song is very original and performed professionally.

What a beautiful summary of our journey. Greetings to Russia!
What a masterpiece! Sophisticated, fresh and authentic. These people know what they're doing. Well done!
This song is unique and relies on simplicity and sincerity.

Great performance. Very great staging, great vocals as well and just a very mysterious but fun song. Im very happy they finished second place. They definetly deserved it.
Don't underestimate this entry. Highly professional, intimate and great stage presence. Certainly a jury favourite...
The need to return. This was easily one of the best NF songs of the season
Hard to repeat the magic though
They’re back!❤️
Loved this song so much! Pls send another next year's Eesti Laul

This is so unique, my winner 😍
such a good song
Vocals on point!!!! Reminds to Anette with 'Write about Me" 💋
i just listened them back to back so similar vibes
Kunagi võiks mõni hea laul ka eestit esindada. See oli hea võimalus, aga eesti rahvas arvas teisiti.
Maybe next time
Ahh revisiting this masterpiece... her gestures and stage presence is something different. Improvisational, quirky and charming
Thank you! My winners! 🤩

Kahju et ei võitnud , lemmar !

Im too
Olin lummatud esimestest nootidest alates! Lemmik!
Top
Minimal Wind, parim! Tuult tiibadesse!
Esimesest helist,kuni viimase helini oli kogu kehas ääretult mõnus surin .ja muidugi pärast oli järellainetus.niiiii ilus laul .
they need a strong comeback!
Väga äge lugu oli/on.
Nice song
Seda lugu võibki kuulama jääda. Ülihea.
Väga ilus😍
Очень круто. Нечто такое самобытное, что хочется слушать и слушать, обязательно добавлю в свой плейлист, но это не для Евровидения 🤷♂️
Ооочень понравилась и мне
This really reminds me of what my boyfriend plays for me on his guitar. Guess I'm lucky
Ilus heli ja rytm
Arvasin ,et saad esimese koha aga esimese sai stefan minu jaoks oled esimene koht kõige parem laul kus sa sellise laulu leidsid ma ei saa aru hea laul
Fallait pas passer après la déesse.
Stefan cheating one person calls 9999999999 times
Nad
Jura!!
What a boring song! do you think this would qualify in the second semifinal? nope.
i love stefan but stefans song is literally just avicii hey brother and elysas voice is too weak. saying that this song is "boring" shows u have no idea what ur talking about when it comes to music

I say it as someone who rooted for Stefan and wanted him to win. This was the most high quality song in this selection
Watch "Chanel - SloMo" who will represent Spain this year and then think about Elysa again whose performance was lack of energy.
