Eurovision 2017: Estonia

The dramatic duet is a staple of Eurovision and Estonia has provided this year's example.


Koit Toome and Laura   "Verona"

Cheese.   Pure unadulterated musical cheese.  The singing is overly dramatic, the lyrics are soppy, and the stage chemistry is lackluster.

This is likely going to have a top 10 finish.  It's a "traditional" Eurovision song, and the campness of the song combined with the professional gleam of the production makes this very easy for both juries and viewers at home to vote for it.

I'll be skipping over it when it comes up on my iPod.
