Victor Crone will bring his Storm from Estonia to the London Eurovision Party!

After battling through a semifinal and a Grand Final in Eesti Laul, Victor Crone won the Estonian ticket to the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 in Tel Aviv, Israel with his song “Storm”. Co-written by Estonian favourite Stig Rästa, the Swedish born artist impressed the televoters at home and now will look to impress the UK fans at the London Eurovision Party

Second country lucky for Victor Crone

East Laul 2019 wasn’t the first national final that Victor Crone had taken part in. The Swedish vocalist took part in Melodifestivalen 2015 as part of Behrang Miri’s entry “Det rår vi inte för” which made it to the second chance round of the competition. 

“Storm” was one of 24 entries shortlisted as part of Eesti Laul 2019 and qualified from the first semifinal winning the televote and being the second choice of the juries. However, it was a much trickier field in the grand final. Victor Crone won the televote by a comfortable margin but wasn’t one of the favourites of the jury, narrowly scraping into the ‘superfinal’ round by just 1 point. The superfinal is decided by the public alone and it was in this round where “Storm” was selected to represent Estonia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 with 46% of the three-way vote.
