One of my favorite ESC entries of all time. I love the mood of the song, the instruments, the language, her stunning voice and she’s the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen 😍

Yeah, Randajad is one of my favorites from Eurovision. Also I loved that it was an Estonian-language entry, love the sound of that language in song.

Text of this song is also beautiful. I'll leave translation in English below. The Nomads In the desert heat, the sand blows like ice-cold snow The night soon spreads its wings Nothing but the wind to escort the nomads That is the way they wander from one day to the next That is the way they wander from one life to the next That is the way it weaves an invisible path on them, it waits until you are ready to take the risk It carries only frozen souls The moonlight makes their shadows Warmth in a ray of sunlight is what the morning brings once again That is the way they wander from one day to the next That is the way they wander from one life to the next That is the way it weaves an invisible path on them, it waits until you are ready to take the risk They wander from one day to the next They wander from one life to the next It weaves an invisible path It waits until you are ready to take the risk A voice echoes across the mountains up to the heavens That is the way they wander from one day to the next That is the way they wander from one life to the next That is the way it weaves an invisible path on them, it waits until you are ready to take the risk That is the way

Best Estonian entry ever! 2009 was such a strong year: you had this, Norway (Rybak), Iceland (Yohanna), Azerbaijan (you need to react to it), Turkey (Hadise) and Portugal (underrated).

I remember my aunt, who’s not Eurovision fan at all, so loved this song , and she set it as the ringtone. Definitely one of the best Estonian entries

The real winner of Moscow 2009, love Estonia!

I am still hyping this song nearly 10 years after. Next to Regina (Bosnia) my favorite in that year.

On that note my fav Eesti entry was 2012 though.

In my top 5 faves of all time!

Estonia is one of the best countries in Eurovision

my 2nd favorite eurovision entry of all time the estonian language is so beautiful and this song inspired me to start learning it and the song is just so ethereal and magical and other worldly definitely deserved more than what it got

Who is your first?

The title of the song means Nomad/Traveller & is one of my favourite ever song from Estonia!! ❤ 🇪🇪 P.S. Finnish and Estonian always roll their "r"s , we also do the same in Welsh so I can roll them also 😉

Posted after watching: I'm glad you apparently appreciate this song as much as I do. It really is hauntingly beautiful & captivating.

I like this it's probably my second favourite estonian entry from eurovision!

Posted before watching: This is my winner from 2009, & in my top 5 performances I've ever seen. I am VERY excited to see this reaction.

I didn’t realise that Sandra (the main singer) tried to represent Estonia in 2014 until last year lmao. This was also in my top 3 that year

Eurovision Fan 2014 was an awesome year for Eesti Laul. They had at least 4 potential winner entries in the competition (one of them was Sandra Nurmsalu) and they finally chose that awful expressive dancer lady who didn't even qualified for the final. Still all of Estonia should be retroactively slapped in the face...

2014 Sandra Nurmsalu got fucked over by judges. Most of the judges were friends of Tanja and even Tanjas husband was a judge!!! They gave Sandra low points, that she would not get into top2. That year Top 2 went into phone votes and people decided who will win. Sandra was clearly best entry that year. Tanja was all playback and didnt sing live. It's humanly impossible to sing so clearly while jumping around all over the place. Traffic -"Für Elise" was other geat entry that year.

One of my favorite Estonian entries, everything just melted perfectly, the melody, her voice and the beautiful Estonian language...thank you so much for this reaction. This needs to be in a soundtrack for some epic movie...

Yes!!! Estonia's best entry and one of my favorite ESC songs ever! Estonian is such a beautiful language.

My favourite entry from 2009!!

This performance was sooo good!

One of my favourites. Great song, great language.

Estonia 2009 = One of my favorite Eurovision song of all time.

I need more entries like that! And generally in Estonian! That's my winner of 2009 ❤️ They came 6th as far as I remember

FINALLY! I've been waiting for you to do this reaction for the longest time! Apart from Fairytale, this performance was one of the catalysts that led me to LOVE Eurovision. Everything about this performance was just stunning.

2009 had 3 of my top 10 ESC entries ever and this is one of them.

Ahhhh!!!! My favorite!!!! Love this so much!!! Everything was perfect

I said YESSSS soo loud and clicked so fast when i saw your video! This is my favourite Eurovision entry. It is just magical and i agree i love her rolling 'Rs'. The Estonian language is so beautiful. I would love to learn it one day. Thanks Jake

That was a pure magic. I was literally hypnotized by her voice, music and entrance overall :-) Eurovision definitely needs more performances like that. P. S. In 2008 Estonia represented one of the weirdest performances in the history of ESC, but in 2009 - one of the greatest. You can feel the contrast.

2008 was our protest song basically, because we de not qualify many years straight and Eurovision song contest got wackier every time. Estonian people decided- lets send comedy group "Kreisiraadio" to just mock the entire thing. Pull out flags, weird costumes and weird movments etc. 2009 was our apology to rest of the world :D

Such a beautiful language!

Such a beautiful and timeless entry, well done Estonia!

One of my favorites ever. I'm not even sure which one is the number 1

For me Estonia entries are the best

Absolutely love Estonia 2009. (Just like I loved Estonia 2018 and wanted it to win.) For me it was a tie with Norways 'Fairytail', who won 2009, and was my guilty pleasure - for just as you said, this Estonia entry is on another level, it cannot be compared. Actually - it is impossible to compete with music, the ranking is impossible.

I simply couldn't believe how perfect this was the first time i heard it.After their troll entry from 2008(Leto Svet)this was complete transformasion and i am so glad!!!

Джейк спасибо за реакцию очень красивая песня Эстонии привет из России✌✌✌

I think the word you are looking for is hypnotic. :)

The best Estonian entry imo. Love it. Knew you'd like that one.

This song was what got me so interested in Estonia and the language and it's been my dream to visit there for so many years now. In fact, Estonia remains as one of my top countries in Eurovision and I wish that both Elina Nechayeva and Urban Symphony would have won their respective years. This song, as well as "Skorpion" and "Päikese Poole" from Urban Symphony are still tracks that I listen to now. Such a shame that they didn't release any other songs.

Thank you Jake! My favourite eurovision entry of all time!

All this talk of r-s made me realise this is the first Estonian entry in Estonian that you react to. There have only been 3 in recent ten years - 2009, 2012 and 2013. Interestingly all three qualified and two ended up in top 10.

I'm so happy!!! This was THE SONG that I really looked forward to your reaction for, thank you!

I don't know why everyone wants to sing in english when it is this kind of beautiful music Europe wants to hear

Yeees finally I've waited months for this ♥️My favourite entry ever

Perfect, beautiful and sweet💎💖

One of my top 3 Estonian entries ever and probably one of my top 10 Eurovision entries. Hope Estonia will send more like this in the future!

I so so so so loooooove this entry and performance !

Told ya!!! Haha... Rybak won this year and Estonia got 6th place... this and Bosnia 2009 were my top winners

It's one of my favourite acts from ESC ever. I always make my non-familiar with the contest friends to watch this act one of the first and they love it and I make new Eurovision fans. :) Thanks Estonia for this amazing show and thanks that you brought this song to my country. :)

My favourite song that year ❤

France 1991 is something I'd like to suggest. It's my favourite song for riding a bike in the middle of the night.

Rändajad is a masterpiece

Jake, this came 6th and this song made me in love with the Estonian language. It's interesting that I had just watched UK 2009, who came 5th, right before this video and it's also overwhelming. Hope you can check it out as well.

Been waiting so long for this reaction and you didn't disappoint! 🤗 For more beautiful examples of the sung Estonian check 2012 & 2013

Probably, my favorite Estonian entry.

B E A U T I F U L on every level. A journey totally on it's on

This os such a great song and Sandra sings beautifully, but you should definitely listen a song called "Päikese poole". It's even better!

It’s between this and 2012 Kuula for my fav Estonian entry ever.

Best song ever 😍

this is definitely a top favorite of mine; i even have a hard time deciding between this and "Fairytale" as my top pick for 2009. The singer also gets my pick for Most Beautiful Woman at esc

Ahh, 2009 - the year of the strings haha. But yeah, this one is also one of my favourites! :)

Yeah... that song was good! I was also shooked when I heard it and I am estonian :D . Still can't believe that we didn't won that year... and this year with La Forza. Altough I place "Rändajad" little bit on higher than Forza, because it was sang in estonian language. But Elina was really Forza when she sang La Forza so perfectly. This was really good reaction video- because it gave you an emotion that we could really see here :) Can I make a suggestion for next reaction? Listen to: Ott Lepland - Kuula (2012). He sang that in estonian, but part of the Eurovision tour, he has official english, spanish and russian versions of the same song. Should make a reaction to all of those. You wont be dissapointed! ;)

Hey Jake's face, great reaction. I love this entry. I always thought it was Loreena McKennitt inspired (which in my world is a good thing).

Well, I promised a surprise, so here it is - I made a translation. Nomads In the heat of the desert, the sand Flies like ice-cold snow Night laying down its wings Only wind stays with the nomads This is the path, they travel thus from day to day This is the path, they travel then from age to age This is the path, it runs as an unseen road Before them it waits if you dare to risk it Sole companion to the frozen souls Moonlight making shadows of them Sunrays of warmth Morning brings once again This is the path, they travel thus from day to day This is the path, they travel then from age to age This is the path, it runs as an unseen road Before them, it waits if you dare to risk it They travel thus from day to day They travel then from age to age It runs as an unseen road It waits if you dare to risk it Over the mountains a voice echoes to the sky This is the path, they travel thus from day to day This is the path, they travel then from age to age This is the path, it runs as an unseen road Before them it waits if you dare to risk it This is the path

My favourite

Best of that year, in my opinion

This in my second favorite entry for Estonia! Its such a good and different song than what we're accustomed to hearing. (For reference it comes second because of Amazing from 2014)

Loved this song :D

Yay I request that in private message, thank you!

Amazing entry, love it!

Love how he said rändajad.

Rändajad is a great entry. Reminds me of the female orchestral group Bond.

I feel shook too ...

This came only 6th. Deserved a top 3 finish if I got to decide!

In the semi-final performance there is one creepy moment, when the camera approaches her face and shows it from the side, when she gives the creepiest stare. I love the moment, I thought it’s intended until she skipped doing that in the final.

🇪🇪Estonian and my nese is in this band (and other ways closely connected). They were all super young and they barely were let to perform.

MASTERPIECE!!!! ❤️

its just so good

AMAZING! YES!

Because this song was on totally different lvl than all of the songs on esc.

I really like the violin part

In 2009 Alexander Rybak knew how to write a song. That ended with a Fairytale for him. Yes Estonia was great that year. They were good in 1996 as well.

You know the song is good when it starts with "kurwa"

I think the reason this song left you speechless is that the performance didn‘t try to prove anything to anyone - as if the competition couldn‘t touch it.

Nevermind those rolling r-s, Jake, try to pronounce"üle mägedede taevasse kaigub hääl". It's easier than you think.

Easily in my Top 10 of all time!!

The winner of Eurovision 2009 was Alexander Rybak's Fairytale, learn that name and song title, you're going to come across it a lot. As for Estonia 2009, they finished in 6th, which is underrated for me as I firmly believe that they deserved to win. You've already reacted to the 2nd place song (Yohanna's Is It True) and 4th place song (Hadise's Dum Tek Tek) and Randajad is so much better than they are. Sandra Nurmsalu (the singer) sang incredibly well and the song is so mystical and unique, there was nothing like it in 2009 and even nowadays, when Eurovision songs aren't afraid to experiment more, there still really hasn't been another Estonia 2009.

Please react to Slovenia's performance of Maja Keuc in Eurovision 2011

Way to better than the forgetable winner this year! Estonia really deserved better in 2009 :(

Only 6 place in ESC 2009. So sad. So sad.

Unique!

Estonia also was good in 2012

Check out their other song "Skorpion"

hi! have you reacted to 2009 russian entry already?

In my opinion Alexander Rybak is probably the most overrated winner of recent years. I mean I didn't get the hype then I still don't get it now. This song is pure magic and the fact that it only finished sixth still amazes me until today. Is in number 3 at my all time favorite Eurovision entries.

Suggestion: do Greece 2009! 🕺🏻

Se on tee. That is road. Aitäh

Germany and Georgia 2013

United Kingdom 2009 :) please
