One song generating a lot of froth at the Eurovision Song Contest is “Espresso Macchiato,” a dance-pop ditty by Estonian rapper and visual artist Tommy Cash.
Estonia’s entry in the pan-continental pop competition, which holds its grand final on Saturday in Basel, Switzerland, is a playful dance-pop track that reels off a string of Italian cliches — including references to spaghetti and “sweating like a mafioso” — before a singalong chorus: “Espresso macchiato, macchiato, macchiato.”
