Play
Lyrics:
It's getting late and be that as it may\\nI turn to you, I turn to you\\nWe might seem so obvious to me\\nBut not to you, not to you\\n\nWe ain't got all night\\nTo find out what is right\\nSo let's go undecided till we know\\n\nThe only way to go\\nIs let your feelings show\\nSee all your walls come down\\n\nAnd just hit play\\n'Cause that's the only way\\nTo find out if it's love\\nThat we're fallin', we're fallin' into\\n\nI didn't know what to do\\nBut now I'm good as new\\n'Cause I'm stronger, much stronger with you\\n\nSome might say it's an ordinary day\\nBut not for me, not for me\\nIf you feel your senses disagree\\nBear with me, bear with me\\n\nWe ain't got all night\\nTo find out what is right\\nSo let's go undecided till we know\\n\nIt's the only way to see\\nIf we were meant to be\\nLet all your walls come down\\n\nAnd just hit play\\n'Cause that's the only way\\nTo find out if it's love\\nThat we're fallin', we're fallin' into\\n\nI didn't know what to do\\nBut now I'm good as new\\n'Cause I'm stronger, much stronger with you\\n\nSome might say it's an ordinary day\\nBut not for me, not for me\\n\nAnd I hit play\\n('Cause that's the only way)\\n(To find out) If it's love\\nWe're fallin' into, into\\n\nI didn't know what to do\\nBut now I'm good as new\\n'Cause I'm stronger, much stronger with you
Estonia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 with the song "Play" written by Fred Krieger, Stig Rästa and Vallo Kikas. The song was performed by Jüri Pootsmann. The Estonian broadcaster Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) organised the national final Eesti Laul 2016 in order to select the Estonian entry for the 2016 contest in Stockholm, Sweden. The national final consisted of three shows: two semi-finals and a final. Ten songs competed in each semi-final and the top five from each semi-final as determined by a jury panel and public vote qualified to the final. 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, "Play" performed by Jüri Pootsmann was selected as the winner entirely by a public vote. Estonia was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 10 May 2016. Performing during the show in position 13, "Play" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the first semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Estonia placed eighteenth (last) out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 24 points.
