2001: "Everybody" — Tanel Padar, Dave Benton & 2XL

Estonia was the first former Soviet country to win the ESC with the song Everybody, performed by Tanel Padar, Dave Benton and 2XL. 

After a poor result the previous year, Austria was not eligible to send a song to the ESC in 2001. Prior to the introduction of the semi-finals, attempts were made to limit the number of participants.
