Jüri Pootsmann (Estonia): 'Play'
Written by: S.Rästa, V.Kikas, F.Kriege
21-year old Jüri Pootsmann won the Estonian version of TV show Idol in 2015 which landed him a record deal with Universal Music.
His status as Estonia's new musical star was cemented after being voted Best Male Act at the 2015 Estonian Music Awards. It's a long way from Jüri’s more formative singing experiences:
Watching the Eurovision Song Contest has always been a tradition in my family so it's so awesome that now I am actually in it!Jüri Pootsmann
"Nobody believes it, but when I was a child the tone of my voice was so high that I had to sing together with girls, not boys", recalls Jüri.
Now representing Estonia at Eurovision, the track was penned by the writer of last year's Estonian entry Stig Rästa along with Vallo Kikas and Fred Krieger.
Lyrics - 'Play'
It's getting late and be that as it may
I turn to you I turn to you
We might seem so obvious to me
But not to you not to you
We ain't got all night
To find out what is right
So let's go undecided till we know
The only way to go
Is let your feelings show
See all your walls come down
And just hit
Play
Cause that's the only way
To find out if it's love
That we're fallin', we're fallin' into
I didn't know what to do
But now I’m good as new
'Cause I'm stronger much stronger
With you
Some might say it's an ordinary day
But not for me not for me
If you feel your senses disagree
Bear with me bear with me
We ain't got all night
To find out what is right
So let's go undecided till we know
It's the only way to see
If we were meant to be
Let all your walls come down
And just hit
Play…
Some might say it's an ordinary day
But not for me, not for me
