The lyrics of Estonia’s Eurovision 2024 song have been modified!

5Miinust & Puuluup won the ticket to Malmö after their victory in Eesti Laul 2024, the show through which Estonia’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest is selected. However, in order to compete, they had to change a few lyrics from their song “(Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi”.

More specifically, “Lay’s”—a well-known brand of chips—was mentioned in the Estonian song’s lyrics. However, this is against EBU regulations, which forbid any mention of brands or trademarks. As a result, the delegation of the country had to alter the lyrics of its entry to adhere to the competition regulations.

The modified lyrics are as follows:

“ainus kott, mis näha, täis pandipudeleid”

(the only bag on the table is full of bottles)
