is the name of the song that will be performed by singer Tommy Cash, who will represent Estonia with “Espresso Macchiato” in the first semi-final of Eurovision 2025 on May 13 in Basel, Switzerland, has announced his intention to revamp his performance in an interview, and clarified that he is aiming for the win in Basel!
Speaking in an interview, Cash expressed his determination to refine his act compared to the one presented during Estonia’s national selection. “We took off stuff that didn’t work, left the stuff that works and got more things to play around with,” he explained. “I want to show a different side of Tommy – he has many sides, and I want to let him out.”
While Cash declined to reveal specific details about the format of his semi-final performance, he teased: ” I would really like to keep people guessing”. He added that he is confident his fans will appreciate the changes: “I’m sure people will be very pleased.”
Cash also addressed the widespread support he has received from audiences across Europe. “we were literally trending in pretty much every European country. The numbers speak for themselves.” he said. Reflecting on how public perception of his song evolved, he noted: “Everyone has an opinion, and I know with every move we make, people figure it out more. At first, I released the song. People were like, ‘This is not Tommy’. Then they showed the show, and 20 per cent changed up: ‘Now I like it’. Now they’ll see the actual music video and again, people will change up, because it’s layered: we peel it off more. But it’s mostly overwhelming positivity from people.”
When asked about Estonia’s last Eurovision victory in 2001, Cash made his ambitions clear: “Yes, but it’s time to change that…I want to win! I will do my best because I know things will be moving soon. I really want to win and do it for my country. I think we have very good chances, and we’re really putting our energy and effort into it.”
Despite his confidence, it remains uncertain whether Cash has a realistic shot at victory. According to current betting odds, he is ranked seventh among potential winners. While this position is promising enough to leave room for improvement during rehearsals and live performances, such dramatic shifts are rare in Eurovision history.
