After second round, all the participants were divided into three groups named "Yes", "Maybe" and "No". People in groups "Yes" and "Maybe" qualified to the third round. [6]

In the third round, girls were given a choice to sing either Janis Joplin's "Piece of My Heart" or Katy Perry's "Firework". Boys chose between Koit Toome's "Mälestused", Robbie Williams' "Let Me Entertain You" and Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody". Ten male and ten female participants advanced to the semi-finals aka studio rounds. [7]
