"Nagu merelaine" (Like a seawave) was the Estonian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1994. It was the first time Estonia participated in the contest, after Janika Sillamaa had failed to qualify from the East European final in 1993. The lyrics were written by Leelo Tungal, a well-known Estonian poet and writer of children's books. The composer was Ivar Must, the same man who composed "Everybody", Estonia's winning entry in 2001. The song was performed tenth on the night, following Switzerland's Duilio with "Sto pregando" and preceding Romania's Dan Bittman with "Dincolo de nori". At the close of voting, it had received 2 points (both from Greece), placing 24th out of 25, leaving only Lithuania's representative behind. The song is sung from the perspective of a woman explaining herself to a lover. She likens herself to a wave in an extended metaphor, explaining that she will love him on her terms only.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nagu merelaine lyrics )〕 A cover version of this song (performed with a heavy metal backing ) has been recorded by Tanel Padar.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Album information - Veidi valjem kui vaikus )〕 It was succeeded as Estonian representative at the 1996 Contest by Maarja-Liis Ilus & Ivo Linna with "Kaelakee hääl" (Estonia's poor result having disqualified them from the 1995 Contest). == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nagu merelaine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
