Hope

Stefan is a singer and songwriter, whose music has become something of a staple on Estonia’s airwaves over the past few years.

Stefan’s parents moved all the way from Armenia to Viljandi (in the south of the country) where they opened a restaurant and raised the aspiring singer.

His big break came in 2018 when he finished third in Estonia’s Eurovision preselection contest, Eesti Laul , as part of the duo VAJÉ with the song Laura (Walk with Me) . He followed this up with another 3rd place finish in 2019, and made the finals again in 2020.

Despite spending a good portion of 2020 in a giant ram costume (on The Masked Singer ), Stefan was named the country’s Sexiest Man of the Year by the popular magazine Kroonika .

Lyrics to Hope

We let them tell us what to do Why why why We live to die for worthy things Oh ya ya ya We promised we would never lose our pride Your word‘s worth nothing if you lie We‘re standing tall and looking up, our Father would be proud And I‘m happy to be working my own ground We‘ll be the last ones breathing here Hey sing your heart out boy For all the people great and small Oh, when all else is lost The future still remains our own We‘re taught that we were born to lose But why why why Don‘t waste your breath, it‘s time to choose Oh ya ya ya We promised we would never lose our pride Your word‘s worth nothing if you lie We‘re standing tall and looking up, our Father would be proud And I‘m happy to be working my own ground I said Hey sing your heart out boy For all the people great and small Oh, when all else is lost The future still remains our own I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope We let them tell us what to do Why why why We live to die for worthy things Oh ya ya ya No matter what they try, tearing up our lives I know we will always rise I said Hey sing your heart out boy For all the people great and small Oh, when all else is lost The future still remains our own I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope The future still remains our own I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope I hope
