Maian, with a large lead, is at the top of the rankings, followed by the duet of Andrei Zevakin and Grete Paia. In third place we find the band Púr Múdd. Fan favorite Stefan is in fourth place, while songs by Eurostars Anna Sahlene, Elina Nechayeva, Stig Rästa and Ott Lepland do not seem to be so popular. Especially, 1999 Estonian representative, Evelin Samuel is just in second to last place.

Will Maian be able to win the televoting of the Eesti Laul final?

See you on February 3 with the First Semifinal of Eesti Laul 2022!
