713) Anett x Fredi - Write About Me

Being a soft indie folk/jazz track, many were surprised when this song was selected to participate in Estonia's selection for the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest. It doesn't attempt to be grandiose and comes from a very artistically honest place. These virtues earned this vibey tune a top three placement, including a perfect score from well-respected kiwi artist Kimbra, who was also featured on our list. Lyrically, the piece speaks of a phase of uncertainty in a relationship, with the speaker telling her lover that he should find more time for her. She asks him to write a song for her to prove that he still loves her. The meta nature of the track unravels in the vocal outro, as Anett says she wrote this song for him, even though she no longer loves him. In the live performance, Anett stands in the lit side of the stage, while Fredi is in the dark, and they're accompanied by a brass trio emerging from the dark during the instrumental breaks. The performance surely helped convey the meaning of the tune, as it went on to rank first with the professional jury.
Enjoy! ♪
