Tõnis Mägi "KOIT"



Another good song what is very popular from Estonia and was first time singed in 1988 under singing revolution.

Tõnis Mägi - Palve



A perfect song for celebrate our Independence day in Estonia! That song reminded me times, when we had singing revolution in Estonia to sing ourselves free from occupation. Hope you all like the melody and those, who understands also the words, it just goes to heart.

Happy Independence Day Estonia,

Happy Independence Day Estonia! Today, it has been 93 years, since Estonia got free first time as an independent country.  It has not been always a good times, but hopefully future will be brighter for our small country. After Estonia got it's first independent, we had to re-gain it again in 1991 after Estonia had been under Russian occupation for 50 years. 


After Estonia got it's independence for second time, Estonia has been through so many changes. Most newest probably will be the election, what will be in march. Before that was that from new year, Estonia has new currency. They joined with Euro, what made a lot of people mad and prices raised to sky. 
Today's celebration day has also sad moment, since people think about what happened on Sunday. As there has been said, Estonia is a small country and the population is not that big, now we are 10 more less. It is sad, when those things happens, but more sad is, that those happenings will be dragged in to election campaigns to throw dust and dirt for each others campaigns. That is so sad, but those moments should not be taken up today.
Hopefully people in Estonia have had a nice day today.
