Their participation for Switzerland was so random. 😂

Interesting that "Club Kung-fu" was so popular in Estonia and even in some European countries, but they placed only 9th in the national selection, just because of jury voting.

Well, call it like "masterpiece" is little bit exagerated but it's true that it was a ray of light for the bad records of Switzerland in the 2000s

Living in England Vanilla Ninja singing ‘Cool Vibes’ is the only Estonian (Swiss) ESC song I can remember or even know about, and since 18+ years later we are still listening it, I'd most definitely say 'Cool Vibes' was the masterpiece and deserved to win. 🥇

You are missing Piret's group Disko 4000 singing Ei usu from Eesti Laul 2010. She sang lead vocals for them.

Her 2010 entry was kinda strange since it was the televote winner in the first round but she lost the second round where there was tele only, same thing happened in 2013 and 2014.

Interesting to see this especially Maarja in 2002. Didn’t one year Piret Jarvis have an entry in against Lenna Kuurmaa? Vanilla Ninja actually beat Estonia going into the actual ESC finals in 2005, and were tipped to win it. Plus in my opinion they were the best and ‘Cool Vibes’ should have won. ‘Birds Of Peace’ won The Viña del Mar Festival 2008 in Chile. Probably down to song choice but a pity Lenna Kuurmaa didn’t succeed to represent Estonia, as she is the amazing talent and was a real world class singer. Plus I think Lenna deserved it. But at least Lenna actually performed and was successful at ESC, and 18+ years later people from around the world still listen ‘Cool Vibes’.

Fun fact: "Birds of Peace" didn't represented Estonia in Eurovision 2007 but they made it to represent Estonia in Viña del Mar Festival 2008 (it won the "Gaviota de Plata" -Silver Seagull- for Best Interpreters but lost the First Place -it won Italy and Domenico Protino with "La guerra dei trent' anni"-)

Kerli Kivilaan nigdy nie była członkinią Vanilla Ninja. Być może pomyliliście ją z Triinu Kivilaan (starszą siostrą Kerli) która była basistką w Vanilla Ninja w latach 2004/2005
