Estonian group Urban Symphony entertain midly with their song Rändajad (The Nomads) but it has all been done before.
The song sounds like a faster version of Clannad's Harry's Game, and the seated blond female violinists are just so 2008 it's not true.
Estonian TV jazz up the performance by a very sympathetic filiming, but in the end no amount of strange camera angles and other visual tricks can hide what is essentially a boring show performed without passion by six otherwise talented musicians who can do better.
The Nomads
In the desert heat the sand
Blows like ice-cold snow
Night soon unfurls her wings
Nothing but the wind to escort the nomads
It is the way they wander from one day to the next
It is the way they wander from one life to the next
It is the way it weaves an invisible path
Before them it waits until you are ready to take the risk
It conveys only frozen souls
The moonlight makes shadows of them
Warmth in a ray of sunlight
Is what the morning brings once again
It is the way they wander from one day to the next
It is the way they wander from one life to the next
It is the way it weaves an invisible path
Before them it waits until you are ready to take the risk
They wander from one day to the next
They wander from one life to the next
It weaves an invisible path
It waits until you are ready to take the risk
A voice echoes over the mountains up to the heavens
It is the way they wander from one day to the next
It is the way they wander from one life to the next
It is the way it weaves an invisible path
Before them it waits until you are ready to take the risk
It is the way
