News - Estonia: More information on Eurolaul | Eurovision Song Contest News - Azerbaijan 2012 

More news on the Estonian selection for the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest, Eurolaul, have been published through Estonian website escestonia.com. Now it seems clear that bouth Soul Militia (formerly known as 2XL) and Vanilla Ninja will take part in the competition. Both have been among the teams that were asked to submit an entry.

Soul Militia
It was a hard year for the group: While one of their members is writing songs for other artists, another one is starting his solo career and a third one is professionally dancing. Nevertheless, they will come together again for the Estonian national final. They will try to finish their song before mid december so that there will be plenty of time to play it on radio stations. Kaido told that the song will be 'soulmilitia-alike' but modern and fast-paced.

Vanilla Ninja
Vanilla Ninja are going to participate with a song in English since they think that a song in Estonian might be too risky. They referred to the song Tii (The way) that represented Estonia in 2004 but didn't make it to the final. In October, escestonia.com gave their visitors the chance to vote for their favourite music act to represent Estonia in 2007. The poll was clearly won by Vanilla Ninja who received 27% of the Votes. Soul Militia were at the bottom of the list only getting 1% of the votes.

Soul Militia were backing group for Tanel Padar & Dave Benton who won the competition for Estonia in 2001 (they were named 2XL at the time) with the song Everybody. Vanilla Ninja achieved an eighth position in 2005 with the song Cool vibes, representing Switzerland.
