Estonia, Elina Nechayeva, 3

The Wiwi Jury — our in-house panel of music unprofessionals — has reached the end of their Estonian journey where we have listened to and ranked the 20 songs competing in Eesti Laul 2018. Last is Elina Netsajeva with her operatic song “La Forza”. Was the force with us? Read on to find out!

Elina Netsajeva – “La Forza”

“La Forza” reviews

Antranig: “La Forza” is beyond epic. This is otherworldly elite popera that should blow the competition out of the water. This must be the winner of Eesti Laul 2018 because nothing comes close in terms of quality. It doesn’t stand out as a traditional Eurovision entry but neither did the last two Eurovision winners. I could see Elina winning Eurovision and taking us back to Tallinn and it would be well deserved.

Score: 10/10

Barnabas: “La Forza” is definitely a standout track, and it is, (despite being a crossover opera track) a fan favourite as well. The vocal techniques are amazing, and if someone, then she will hit those high notes! Eccezionale!

Score: 9/10

Deban: A soaring pop-opera ballad with an impressive crescendo. When listening to “La Forza”,  positive adjectives pour out of my core. It is grand, epic, serene and beautiful. Elina’s voice takes you on a smooth journey to soprano’s heights. Even though this genre of music isn’t the main course at Eurovision, when it’s cooked well, it deserves to come out of the kitchen.

Score: 9/10

Lukas: Opera isn’t my cup of tea but Elina makes me really start to like it. From the start her voice just captivates and brings you into the journey of this song. Elina has a voice of an angel and she shows it in this song. Her high notes give me goosebumps. In recent years opera-inspired songs have done well at Eurovision. If Estonia chooses this act I think that the final is guaranteed for them.

Score: 8.5/10

Rick: “La forza” sounds like it was recorded on another planet. Mystical, magical and very professional. Not only because of Elina’s angel-voice, but also because of the production. It grabs your attention immediately. This would never be my personal overall favourite, but I’d still like to see it at Eurovision to have some variety.

Score: 8/10

Robyn: The song will appeal to people who like vocal theatrics. If big “Sound of Silence” money notes are out of fashion in pop, a song like “La Forza” is there to pick up the pieces for people who like ladies with lungs. Full respect to that audience, but this just sounds like a bunch of vocal tricks to show off the singer’s range.

Score: 4.5/10

In our Eesti Laul Wiwi Jury, we have 15 jurors but only room for 6 reviews. The rest of our scores can be found below:

Angus: 8/10

Will definitely do as well as Amaury Vassili and Malena Ernman a few years ago – and doesn’t deserve a higher ranking. Heard a thousand times. At least this is the song for all those with a high need for ostentatively displaying their pseudo culturalism since they perceive it as something like classical music. Conclusion: that girl’s definitely a gifted singer – but that’s it. The song is nothing

Opera is always a risk at Eurovision and this is no exception. It’s also obvious that if it wins, it will be a polarizing enrty.
Personally, I’m not a fan of this genre, though I loved Il Volo in 2015.
“La forza” is a beautifiul song and Elina can definitely sing. I’m not sure if it’s the best choice but I’ll wait for the live performance to have a clearer opinion. Sometimes, you can’t understand much from a strudio version.
7/10

I believe in everyone being entitled to an opinion but sometimes, people are just flat out wrong. This is brilliant. I would have thought its qualifying was a mere formality and was already thinking about whether Salvador’s points record was in trouble. However, after seeing the UK’s abysmal choice, I am not taking anything for granted anymore.

that’s, for the moment, the only possible contest-winning song heard this year (so, nope, not esamiba, even if i hope latvia sends madara to lisbon) – even if there’s plenty more to come.

epic, soulful, time-stopping and, well, kinda universal. that’s, also, what we (have to?) request from a eurovision contestant. 9/10 imo.

Not really sure. Good voice of course but the song itself sounds to me a bit over-perfected or too much polished. I don’t know how to say, but I miss kinda something authentic.

Nevertheless, this is indeed polarizing and I think this and Stig’s song could make the race.

There’ve been a bunch of French songs from non-French-speaking countries (Cyprus and Austria come to mind), Italian has been in the game a bunch (Croatia just last year, Latvia), a few Spanish. Some do a ton of languages (Romania in 2007). But yeah, English is usually the default “other language.”

I like to keep my mom updated on what’s going on in Eurovision and when this song was released I told her Estonia is gonna win. Hearing this gave me the same feeling as hearing Occidentalis Karma for the first time. Dunno if that’s a good sign or not.
The song is easy to understand and vocal manustupration aside, it doesn’t come across as overly pretentious. Italian obviously tends to do well at Eurovision and so does Northern sterility. I’m not sold on the dress yet, but that might very well change.

Really overrated, IMO. People are going crazy for this simply because it’s an opera song in a contest usually full of pop music. In an opera contest this would be just average. People tend associate opera as being highly superior to pop.

Reminds me of 2011 when France sent an opera song which everyone was convinced would win, but eventually it wasn’t even in the Top 10.

This actually finished quite high. I expected it to be lower.
It’s quite a divisive song and not as good opera pop as Opera Skalla. But better opera obviously. I like her vocals and it will be a different song for sure. I’d be happy if it won in Estonia but for me it’s not a standout favorite. It’s tied with another song but the odds seem to suggest that she has probably already won. As soon as the semi-1 show was recorded Estonia jumped so much in the betting odds.
An 8/10

La forza is a great song and has potential for great staging but for Eurovision’s sake I hope this doesn’t win the competition. Although Jamala and Salvador both delivered good songs with soulful presentation this current trend of winning songs does worry me a little bit. For ESC’s mainstream appeal it would be crucial to have a winning song that tops the charts in Europe and all over the world. Last time we kind of saw that was in 2012 with Euphoria. There’s always a place in Eurovision for these so called “timeless” songs, but for the brand, a more… Read more »

What is a Chart succes against a Eurovision victory? Nothing. There are hundreds of Mainstream Songs every year, but it takes more to be a Eurovision winner! At Eurovision you have 3 minutes to cause a Magic Moment… To create a timeless Moment. 3 minutes to make Europe feel the Eurovision Feeling. Eurovision winners don’t have to be Commercial, they just have to be that special Moment once in a year. That’s what it’s about, if you ask me!

Chart success is the measure of the ability of the song to capture people’s mind much after the contest. And by success I mean longevity and not the highest point the song received. Eurovision wins have happened by fluke just because people like the staging/performer/hate Russia.etc

Chart success is what determines how successful a song has been and it is pertinent that we as voters help the longevity and credibility of Eurovision by voting for songs that have longevity beyond one three minute performance and even being performed by a different singer .

I do agree that some of those chart friendly artists have really generic songs such as Drake and Post Malone, at least IMO. BUT there is a quite good diversity of songs in the charts nowadays.

Loreen was literally the reason eurovision became real. She is said to have brought on the modern Eurovision. She won with a song not a back story.
Salvador and conchita obviously make more headlines than loreen cause they won due to a backstory.
Amar pelos dois and Rise like a phoenix didnt make more headlines than Euphoria though!

Never lol, Latvia was a surprise winner in 2002! Possibly in 2000, but again I don’t think Latvia was expected to get 3rd. In 2015 it was the close again but, no one expected Latvia to win until after rehearsals, which is when no one expected Estonia to win! So I don’t think they’ve ever been faves to win at the same time

I agree with you though, if this and Esamiba win, this might be the first time Estonia and Latvia will battle it out against each other as favorites to win 🙂

I’m not the biggest “La Forza” fan, but when “Legends” get a way higher grade than this one… sorry Wiwi Jury, but I have to feel there’s something very wrong about it.

I agree with what Robyn wrote though. I would give it a good grade, but I have the same feeling that the song was built around Elina’s vocals as opposed to Elina’s (extraordinary) vocals serving the song. Anyway, I think it will be a deserved Eesti Laul winner if she can show the same strenght and passion when performing live.

La Forza is simply a magical experience! It reminds me of Plavalaguna’s song in The Fifth Element. To put it short – my kind of music! I am simply in love with everything about this song. If it gets picked, it’s a serious contender for my ESC winner, and judging by a lot of reactions, actual ESC winner as well. Tallinn 2019?

I think so. They can come close (Sweden came second in their 2015 poll, behind Estonia) but looking back, they’ve only gotten it right once (naturally, with Euphoria in 2012, the Grand High Priestess of Obvious Winners). A lot of their favorites don’t even qualify (San Marino was their second-favorite in 2013! I mean, good song, but when in Eurovision history has anyone put SM that close to victory?).

A beautifully arranged pop-opera aria. This is first class music that is perhaps so good that it feels slightly contrived and snobbish. I adore the Italian lyrics, and Elina’s voice is perfect on the track. My only concerns are that it’s a bit slow and that tge piercing soprano whistle register at the end will irk some people.

i’m with Robyn on this one- Elina’s vocals are stunning and if she does does go to Lisbon, she could potentially be the best vocalist we’ve ever witnessed on the ESC stage. Yet, I find the song incredibly bland and it does feel like it is purely to show off Elina’s vocal tricks. Additionally, though some say it may win the contest, I have my beliefs that it may not even go there- although Elina is well known, would the Estonian public send a song which is not in one of their native languages?

According to Italians she nails the language- also she is an internationally recognised opera singer. Her clout is beyond domestic albeit in a niche market which puts her well ahead of most of the competition.

Also she’s of Russian origin so could benefit a lot if Markus doesn’t win supernova.
