🇦🇲 Armenia takes to the stage…

This starts off as a soft piano ballad, with Brunette lying on a sloped structure that's been erected at the front of the stage, against a backdrop of swirling graphics. Then just as the audience is swaying dreamily, Brunette drops a fierce rap interlude and the whole thing goes OFF. Brunette has incredible stage presence and a powerful vocal, and this staging makes really clever use of light and graphics during the tempo changes. Powerful stuff -  you can see Brunette's costume in the backstage photo below.
