Absolutely. While Denmark did deserve to win, my three favourites of 2000 are Estonia, Malta and Norway.

Absolutely...!! 👍

[@s.leochapman417]

One thing I always find funny is that, for me at least, both Estonia and Latvia's songs and performances from the 2000 edition were much better than their own winning entries in 2001 and 2002 respectively.

[@stevebbuk]

Which one is the guy who won in 2001?

[@s.leochapman417]

@@stevebbuk A guy called Tanel Padar, alongside a singer from Aruba named Dave Benton. It is really, really bad.

Beautiful song, beautiful Ines. One of the best Eurovision Songs (perhaps the best). Congratulations Estonia¡¡

[@BeautifulEurovision]

She was way too nervous, yes, but omg... I love this entry! The song is SO well written, and she is such a beautiful, charming girl and a wonderful singer... This couldn't beat The Olsen Brothers, but in 2001, Estonia could have won with both this and Everybody!

[@markdowd1]

she may have looked nervy but she sang beautifully...

[@rogertemple7193]

"both a beautiful singer a beautiful voice."

[@kairi5171]

she was 17 when she represented Estonia! 🤣

[@piiluja]

Backing singers are also all remarkable persons, from left to right: Kaire Vilgats - has visited Eurovision stage 7 times as backing singer, and has participated uncountable times in Estonian competition "Eesti Laul", in some years multiple times with different performers. Kadri "Maiken" Koppel - well known voice and singing teacher, Jelena Juzvik - has participated in Eurovision finals 4 times as backing vocal, in year 2002 for two different countries. Tanel Padar - winner of following year Eurovision (2001), Pearu Paulus - one of the composers of that song.

Same. Eurovision 2000 was my first most memorable memory at the age of 4 when I was just a kid and I fell in love with it at first sight. I remember how much I was nagging my mom to keep track on when the contest gonna be shown next so she can call me and I would watch it.

[@AnIrishMan500]

I adore this song. Listened to it over and over again on a vhs tape back then. Memories of 2000 flooding back.

[@intreoo]

I genuinely think that if this song had competed in 2001 or even 1999, it would've most definitely won.

[@JeSuisRene]

A modern, fresh song that I don’t think would sound too out-of-place in today’s (2021) charts. Coupled with Ines’ laid back performance and the aspirational lyrics, I really like this.

[@sinikarvonen4581]

So nostalgic song. I was just a teen back then😀

[@Pemuciuse]

A classic Eurovision song. Her tone is good but the vocals are a bit weak. Her moves are a tad robotic but charming! As a Swede, I was there in the arena that evening and enjoyed one of the best ESC finales ever. This song should have been 1st or 2nd despite the flaws because it is a very unique piece of music after all.

[@o-b-1]

Estonia sent masterpieces in the 90's and also this one, and finally they won with Everybody

[@noelmcmahon3407]

I love this masterpiece and it is so stunning and i love it it should have won the Eurovision song contest

[@tiigrikutsu7288]

[@Euroviking86]

In retrospect, a very good tune, very catchy indeed, and a much more solid mix than on the single. On the other hand, pretty banal lyrics and a poor performance from Ines put the stopper in this. Still a far better song than Estonia's winner the year later.

[@Gumboliniz]

Makes sense for me. Without the hat she would be another of the eurovision beautifull girls run-ins. Everybody remembers the girl with the green hat. Also fitted well with the calm olive green stage design on clothes with the simple song, instead of all the very noisy songs in that period of eurovision history.
