Tonight: Eesti Laul kicks off in Estonia!

For a small country, Estonia really punches above its weight in the Eurovision Song Contest, having achieved impressive results since it first entered in 1994. In 2001 the country even went on to win the contest in Copenhagen with the song Everybody.

Now, some 12 years later, Estonia and broadcaster ERR are eager for another victory at Europe's Favourite TV Show and tonight the first Semi-Final of Eesti Laul 2013 will take place in Tallinn.
