Duett (translation: Duet) was the Norwegian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1994 in Dublin performed by Elisabeth Andreassen and Jan Werner Danielsen. This was Andreassen's third appearance in the contest.
The song deals with the power of song itself, with both performers describing the feelings they get from hearing the other's voice. They sing that it makes them feel free and united in spirit.
It was performed 17th on the night following Lithuania and preceding Bosnia and Herzegovina. At the close of voting, it finished in 6th place with 76 points.

Med din sang strømmer varmen inn
Bringer vår til et frossnet sinn
Gjennom is finner sangen vei
Til en elv dypt inni meg
Isen går, elven våkner opp
Flommens kraft fyller sinn og kropp
Først som gråt fra et kildevell
Inne i deg selv som bryter fri
Og nå er fossen fri og vill
Som dansere av ild, en mektig strøm
Vi er ett, med varmen i vårt blod
Med styrken i vår tro i en sang
Våg å gi, slippe våren løs
Sangen bor under alt som frøs
Flommen går i et fossefall
Våren i krystall bryter frem
Og nå er fossen fri og vill
Som dansere av ild, en mektig strøm
Vi er ett, med varmen i vårt blod
Med styrken i vår tro i en sang
Fri som flammer i en dans
Duett i sinn og sans for første gang
Vi er ett med varmen i vårt blod
Med styrken i vår tro i en sang
I en sang
With your song, warmth enters
Brings spring into a frozen mind
Through ice, the song finds its way
To a river, deep inside me
The ice melts, the river awakens
The power of the flood fills mind and body
First as tears from a spring
Inside yourself that breaks free
And now the waterfall is free and wild
Like dancers of fire, a powerful current
We are one with the warmth of our blood
With the strength of our faith in a song
Dare to give to set the spring loose
The song lives under everything that froze
The flood turns into a waterfall
The spring in crystal breaks through
And now the waterfall is free and wild
Like dancers of fire, a powerful current
We are one with the warmth of our blood
With the strength of our faith in a song
Free, like flames in a dance
Duet in mind and sense for the first time
We are one with the warmth of our blood
With the strength of our faith in a song
In a song
