\u201dI am very excited about this! Singing in English was fine, nothing that I hadn\u2019t done before, but singing in Estonian was a real challenge for me! Hard but very pleasant challenge\u201d,<\/em>\u00a0says Lauris who during a recording session was supervised and corrected by Estonian theater artist Maret Kukkur!<\/p>\n

\u201cI truly believe that Latvia and Estonia have many things in common and \u201cMa jooksen\u201d song and video will be understandable also for Estonian people. Estonian language is hard, but sounds very nice. I hope Estonians will like and dance to this happy and positive summer song just like Latvians do it this summer! I am not Estonian and you may tell that when listening to the song. I tried my best to sound as good as possible, so hopefully you won\u2019t be too critical about my accent \u201d<\/em>, says Lauris.<\/p>\n

“I would like to thank all the great people who were involved and helped me to bring this a little crazy idea into reality- Eva-Maria Eensalu,\u00a0 Mrs.Tungal, Thomas G:son, Maret Kukkur,\u00a0Di\u0101na Briede\u00a0and also Elina Joenurma and Jakko Maltis who did a great job in dubbing our voices in Estonian for the music video!\u00a0 Thank you all very much!”<\/em><\/p>\n

As we remember,\u00a0Lauris Reiniks new single “Es Skrienu” (I’m running) in the first week of release\u00a0set a record<\/a>\u00a0as this year\u2019s most often purchased song during the course of a week in Latvia.\u00a0Official Music Video<\/a>\u00a0was among the most watched videos in a single day on\u00a0YouTube<\/a>, rising to 16th place.
