Will Italy have another win this year in the Euro final? Let me know in the comments!
If Måneskin will play... yes 🤣😋
To give the right year: Last time Italy won it was 1990 with Toto Cotugno.
i think we won, but I don't like the referee
1964 e 1990.
yes, indeed
Mia Martini is a myth, a legend, who sadly passed too soon. You absolutely HAVE to listen to "almeno tu nell'universo", one of the best Italian songs ever
Its One of the greatest Song you'll hear. So much so that a LOT of Italian singers keep covering It. Just beautiful!✨✨🇮🇹🇮🇹💯💯
@@victorfries8859 Absolutely, it is and always will be on eof the very best songs Italy has produced. On another planet honestly
Mia moglie l adora. A me mi appalla da morire
Totally agree. Almeno tu nell’universo is a masterpiece and Mimì was a great artist!
Yeah poor woman, one of the best voices we’ve ever had
There are some reasons why italy stopped partecipating in 1997 (also if you look they skipped some other years before that), but mainly was because Eurovision was not popular enough in the country and it was constantly overshadowed by Sanremo (and by a really big margin, audience-wise). That situation was even worse because the organization of the 1991 contest was a hot mess and RAI basically didn't want to organize it anymore, this followed by the fact that singers representing italy in '93 and '97 complained about lack of support and even RAI sabotaging them (especially Jalisse in 1997, they were the favourites to win apparently).. of course nothing was ever confirmed or denied, but certaintly those polemics didn't help, hence the absence in the following years.
Then Italy actually risked to never come back because in the '00s people literally forgot about Eurovision and the new generations hardly knew about the contest even existing, the comeback was kinda or orchestrated by Raffaella Carra' (she passed away few days ago, RIP), a really important show-girl/singer/announcer, who really wanted Italy to comeback and finally made it happen in 2011
oh, yeah. Eurovision completely passed me by all my life, honestly. If we hadn't had such a show (and win) this year I would have probably carried on like that. And it's such a pity for Raffaella Carrà, she was an icon, and she would have been perfect to host it next year (not to mention she'll be sorely missed in general, and especially as an artist).

Grazie per averlo spiegato, non ne ero a conoscenza. E, tra le altre cose, ero una di quelle che non avevano idea di cosa fosse l'Eurovision. Devo ringraziare soprattutto I vincitori degli ultimi 5-6 anni per averlo appreso.
@@pirimpallopirimpalli4932 Such a pity: those were the years of Giorgia, Pausini, Elisa, Nek, Paola e Chiara and many more. I think Italy could have easily won.
Tutto sommato ci è andata bene perchè nel 2006 gli avremmo spedito Povia col "piccione", gli anni dopo un vagamente accettabile Simone Cristicchi seguito da Marco Carta e Valerio Scanu senza contare il rischio sfiorato di mandare Pupo e Vittorio Emanuele Filiberto!
Romina Power is the daughter of the famous 50's hollywood actor Tyron Power. Her wedding with Albano (the man she sang with) in 1970 was one of the most followed events in history in Italy
Romina Power is the daughter Zorro
Fai Rumore (the 2020 entry) is an incredible song, with a very deep meaning. I get that slower songs aren't your thing - and tbh I didn't care for it from just the MV - but his performance of it in the Verona Arena and the love it got from the Italian public during the pandemic has made me fall in love with it. Please give it another chance Noosh!
"fai rumore" and "adesso" are 2 amazing songs by Diodato.
He and Marco Mengoni are two very elegant and sophisticated singers.
@@Val-gk3vi and most of it they nail EVERY NOTE THEY HIT. Their attitude and capability are something out of this world (and that's why gays didn't like Diodato in 2020, since they prefer shitty Elettra Lamborghini)
Talking about Albano and Romina "I hope they are not together"
Oh boy do I have some news for you
now i have to look this up
@@emilygalassi4210 holy shoot 😱
@@emilygalassi4210 that's so sad!
15:53 Forgive me I got it wrong but If that means that Diodato won because we knew ESC was going to be cancelled, than no, since Sanremo isn't a National selection but a huge festival on its own, so he won Sanremo with the Esc participation as a plus that he could refuse. The performance at the Arena di Verona during the lockdown was breathtaking ✨🎶
Italy is one of the best countries in Eurovision, always putting out great songs, while still staying original and not just manufacturing the songs to be as popular as possible.
I loved your reaction, even tho I didn't agree with everything. How can you not like 2018 and 2020?
Can we talk about how Måneskin has almost 40 million listeners in spotify?? I'm so happy for them:)
maneskin was already the most streamed participant and the most popular band in italy prior to eurovision
Diodato's song is beautiful, when it was presented in Sanremo it meant the metaphorical silence after the end of a relationship, then it took on a powerful meaning during the period of the 2020 pandemic. "make noise" and instead there was silence in the streets because we were all at home.
Italy have always known how to do Eurovision. 'Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu' (or 'Volare') won record of the year and song of the year at the very first Grammy Awards and was the number one song of 1958 in the USA. Remarkable.
And by now Volare is the only Eurovision song that won a Grammy Award
reality is Italy never cared about Eurovision... what it does know how to do is Sanremo.
4:14 This song is about a girl who says to her lover that she has not the age to go out alone with him ("non ho l'eta" means "I don't have the age"). She says that he's is older and has more experience and that he knows more things. And then she tells him that if he wants then he can wait for her and she'll give him all her love.
10:48 Toto Cutugno. It was a song about unity after the fall of the Berlin wall. (Fan fuct: Italy first place, France second place. Like this year!)
Now, Gigliola and Toto are alive so one of my wishes for ESC2022 here in Italy is having the 3 winners all together! That would be amazing!
P.s: Actually a lot of the singers we sended (well I didn't send anybody lol) at the ESC, are really important names in our musical culture: Massimo Ranieri, Gianni Morandi, Iva
Zanicchi, Gigliola Cinquetti, Nicola di Bari, Domenico Modugno, Al Bano, Mia Martini, Ricchi e Poveri, Matia Bazar, Franco Battiato, Umberto Tozzi, Anna Oxa, Fausto Leali.
These are really important names.
Even after 2011 there are important artist of nowadays: Marco Mengoni, Emma, Mahmood, Ermal Meta and obviusly Maneskin
P.S: 14:28 Actually Francesca has a song with Maneskin th-cam.com/video/gMSnJJiZ7UI/w-d-xo.html
and this is the making of: th-cam.com/video/2fVd3ulbap0/w-d-xo.html
15:07 you should read the lyrics of this song, it's heartbreaking
Thank you for this ❤️
4:14 soo inappropriate 😱
@@BaverIy It is. But she is a very responsible girl and says " let me live a romantic love story, waiting until that day comes..." She basically turns him down until she is ready for "more".
At the time, Gigliola was 16.
BTW, she is also the one who performed "sì" coming second right behind ABBA that year.
You forgot to mention 1991's entry, Peppino di Capri: "Melancholie di settembreeee..."
Omg, don't do Diodato dirty like that. 😂 I legit think if the contest went on in 2020, he had a big chance of winning it, because his performance would have touched so many people, especially in the year that we were having at the time.
You have to react to " tutti I vincitori di Sanremo" ( all Sanremo winners) to understand the quality of Italian music.
"i hope they are not together" ma'am Albano and Romima were our grandmas' Brad and Angelina😭
Italy thought the quality of Eurovision and the voting rules were not good, so they took a few breakes (1981-82, 1986 and 1994-96). In 1997 they came back for once with Jalisse who were extremely popular in Italy following their Sanremo win, so when they came 4th at Eurovision it was considered a huge disappointment and a bad result for them. Despite claims that RAI didn't treat the contest seriously enough and didn't want to win at all, because they didn't want to host again (especially with the fact that 1991 Eurovision in Rome was pure mess), Italy decided to stay out, mostly because of low interest from the Italian public. Then in late 2000's many people started campaigning for Italy to compete again (the biggest star to support a comeback was perhaps Rafaella Carra, who sadly passed away this week) and they did in 2011. ;)
At least she lived to see their return to the competition, saw them win again and knew they would be hosting next year.
Historically the Italians have considered the Eurovision song Contest as a "draft" of the Sanremo festival, the Italian people do not have a "historical memory" of ESC because they have never considered it much. This is also the reason for so many years of absence. In 2011 we are back and the popularity of ESC in Italy is growing more and more. Now with the victory of the Maneskin I believe that Eurovision Song Contest has actually become important ALSO for the Italians, finally.
I love maneskin, i have all their albums, but diodato's song is something extraordinary. I remember the performance in Verona, surrounded by nothing during the lockdown, an emotion doubled. what a masterpiece, brilliant
You should give 2018 lyrics a shot. The lyrics is pure poetry and one of the most meaningful one.
You should really react to Matia Bazar’s “Ti sento”. Their singer, Antonella Ruggero, has such an incredible voice ❤️
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!
To Vacanze Romane too. I would say that the latter is really beautiful and above all innovative for the time
"In Cairo people don't know what time is it now
Today the sun over the Rambla is not the same
There's a concert in France, people are having fun
Someone's singing loudly, someone's screaming "to death"
It always rains in London, but today it's fine
The sky doesn't make concessions, not even at a funeral
In Nice the sea is red for fires and shame
With people on the concrete and blood in the sewer"... Non mi avete fatto niente . L'inizio fa venire i brividi
You shoud check the lyrics of the 2018 song and put it in context (Do you remember the terrorist attacks in Nice, London, Barcelona, Cairo?). It was an amazing and really emotional song. And you should definitely look at Diodato's performance for ESC in the Arena di Verona: simply breathtaking!
The Sanremo festival is the main singing competition in Italy so the songs are not made specifically for Eurovision. For this reason some may seem unsuitable for Eurovision but perhaps this is a strength of Italy.
I don’t know if you know this, but the singer Italy sends to ESC is, generally, the winner of the Sanremo festival. Sanremo is a very big event for Italy and it is called “the festival of the Italian songs”. So it’s not that Italy had a feeling that 2020 ESC was gonna be cancelled, it’s simply that Diodato won Sanremo last year, as Måneskin did this year 😁
Fun facts
1957 - This song was five minutes long, which prompted the Eurovision three minute rule.
1958 - First foreign language song to become #1 in the US and won the very first Grammy for Record Of The Year.
1966 - The alternate San Remo version sung by Gigliola Cinqueti was a huge hit in Latin America.
1967 - From this year on and until 2013 (except for 1972 and 1997), Italy stopped sending the San Remo winning song to Eurovision, although some of the San Remo winners competed in Eurovision in the same year with another song.
1969 - Iva Zanicchi was elected to the European Parleament in 2004 and 2009.
1970 - Gianni Morandi was my mother's teen idol.
1974 - In Italy, this year's contest wasn't broadcasted live because there was a referendum on the divorce, so the Italian song wouldn't influence the vote (because the title means yes).
1975 - US born Wes Johnson was the second black man to compete at Eurovision. His daughter Romina sang in The Artful Dodger's classic garage hit Movin' Too Fast.
1976/1985 - Al Bano and Romina Power were a married couple from 1970 to 1999. Romina is the daughter of Hollywood star Tyrone Power.
1979 - The first ever Eurovision song not to use the orchestra, just the band's instruments.
1980 - Alan Sorrenti is half-Welsh.
1988 - There wasn't a three minute Eurovision edit for this song, so it just faded out after three minutes.
1990 - The backup singers were members of the Slovenian group Pepel I Kri that represented Yugoslavia in 1975.
1991 - This song is in the dialect from Napoli.
1992 - There was no music video or taped performance of this song, so the Eurovision preview shows (that was how people could know all the Eurovision songs of the year before the internet) only showed the audio with pictures of Mia. BBC also added some stock Italian landscape footage. That's the same singer from 1977.
1997 - After winning San Remo with this song, apparently Jalisse have submitted a song for San Remo 22 times ever since but were never selected again.
2011 - This song won the newcomer section of San Remo.
2014 - This and 1988 are the only Eurovision songs ever not to get any points from Portugal.
The fact is that Italy, in the past, has not sent often the songs wich won Sanremo; the winners sang different songs ( I never understand why🤔).
If they had sung the winner's songs of Sanremo, we would have won more often.
Simply because the singers, if they decide to participate in ESC, can choose if they want to change it or not.
@@lellab.8179 ti rispondo presupponendo che tu sia italiana.
Credo, invece che la ragione fosse che i cantanti usassero l'eurovision solo per promuovere i loro dischi ( quindi portavano inediti) perché, per loro, non era un festival così importante come lo era il festival di Sanremo, per cui non era tanto importante vincere.
Credo che canzoni come " per Elisa", " se stiamo insieme", " uomini soli" e " perdere l'amore" ( solo per citarne alcune) avrebbero vinto a man bassa in quegli anni, ma forse i dirigenti rai non avevano questa gran voglia di far vincere l'Italia ( c'era già Sanremo, perché rischiare di spendere soldi per un altro evento canoro?)
"Non Ho L'età" By Gigliola Cinquetti not only won ESC 1964, it entered the charts all over the world and sold something like 25 million records... Gigliola Also partecipated in 1974 and arrived second after Abba
Marco mengoni just stand out!! Epic!
Diodato 2020 too! You were wrong this time sorry 😅
2014 was a weird year. They didn't send the winner of Sanremo. You could react to "Controvento" by Arisa which was the winner of that year.
I suggest you focus on 1984 "i Treni di tozeur". Very beautiful and original song.
Franco Battiato was an important songwriter here in Italy
Hi, Noosh! Al Bano and Romina... Wow, those were a super power couple back in the day. Their age difference is 8 years, but they were married for 30 years. Unfortunately in the mid-nineties they lost a daughter (literally lost, she went missing during some holiday, I think, in the US, and never turned up again. She was in her 20s) and apparently the blow and the stress eventually broke them apart. A few years ago they started performing together again, though.
Regarding the dresses of their backing vocalists at 10:00, the design may be very unrelated to each other, but you might notice that there's a theme: they're wearing the three colours of the Italian flag (whether this makes it better or worse... up to you!).
There are quite a few songs in there that brought me back. But among all these artists I'd especially recommend Mia Martini. If you can find a video of her "Gli uomini non cambiano", with English subtitles, that was a very powerful song indeed.
Aw no that’s actually very sad ! She looks so much younger so thanks for informing me!
@@noosh101 I'm re-adding this because I think it might have gotten hidden in my previous message. Here's my suggestion for a possible reaction: Mia Martini, "Gli uomini non cambiano" (I think it might be easy to find a video with Eng Sub on TH-cam). The lyrics are very powerful.
al bano and romina power were actually married and had several children.. she's the daughter of hollywood actor Tyrone Power. They divorced after the disappearance of one of their daughters ruined the marriage.. (I think he's about 7-8 years older than her..not too bad actually)
After all the singers, the Maneskin with fireworks in the back saying "noi siamo diversi da loro" (we are different from them) fits so well 😂
TRUE LOL 😂✨👌
1977 singer Mia Martini is one of the greatest Italian singers of all time, she committed suicide young but left many wonderful songs and in particular her song 'Almeno tu nell'universo' is a gem, one of the classics of Italian music, deep insightful lyrics sung with incredible voice. Franco Battiato, who died a few months ago, was one of the greatest chansonnier Italy has ever had. His lyrics were terrific (La Cura, for example). 2013 and 2020 entries were very appreciated in Italy (and both the singers are intelligent and cultured guys), but maybe they're too slow for your taste. Btw 1970 and 1971 singers are still singing!
1970 and 1971 (Morandi and Ranieri) are some of my favorite singers of all time. They even participated in sanremo 2022 in which they got 3rd and 8th.
Hi Noosh, those singers of early '70s nothing have to do with the then contemporary italian progressive rock scene. This latter were in the same vein of your Genesis, Fairport Convention, Van der Graaf Generator, Colosseum, If, Jethro Tull and the like. Just few groups and songs:
- PFM (Premiata Forneria Marconi):
"Impressioni di settembre";
- Area:
"Luglio Agosto e Settembre (nero);
- Banco (Banco del Mutuo Soccorso):
"Non mi rompete";
- Le Orme:
"Sospesi nell'incredibile"
...and more. Check them out.
the 2018 entry has very strong and emotional lyrics. I recommend you to read it and watch the video of the song!
Massimo Ranieri is an incredible one man show. The man can do everything and what a powerful voice he has. Enchanting. Mia Martini... nothing to say. She was one of a kind and a wonderful, fragile soul. Why is "Gente di mare" (Raf-Tozzi) missing in this video? They performed in 1987. That song will forever be my absolute favourite 💙 Try Marco Mengoni with "L'Essenziale" at Radio Italia Live 2015. Live orchestra, a lot of people singing along and the beautiful Piazza del Duomo in Milan 😉Link: th-cam.com/video/KME1jpGcfZU/w-d-xo.html - "Non mi avete fatto niente" (Ermal Meta - Fabrizio Moro) was written after the terroristic attack of 2017 in Manchester, during Ariana Grande's concert and was inspired by the letter of a man who wrote that, even if "those people" took his wife's life away he won't hate them. "Non mi avete fatto niente" means "You haven't done anything to me" and that means that he won't change his mind, he and his family will keep going strong and peaceful even with all the pain they're suffering. It's very deep. Here's the Music Video: th-cam.com/video/V4zO_1Z_1S8/w-d-xo.html
I love it....
I'm proud of your enthusiasm for Måneskin
7:48 fun fact Romina Powers was born in Los Angeles, her father was Tyrone Powers, an American actor who played Zorro, she's one of the rare example of English speakers who achieved to speak Italian without strong accent
If i'm not wrong Nina Zilli had that hairstyle and outfit cause Amy died the year before and she did that like a little tribute, then she continued to dress like that for a while.
Btw if you want to listen to Mia Martini songs, some are so beautiful. She is one of the best we had in Italy and even is she sadly passed away in 90's (sad story behind it) she still one of the best for the lyrics of her songs.
@Letizia Snix Mia era ed è una delle migliori non soltanto per i testi delle canzoni ma anche per la sua meravigliosa capacità interpretativa
Fai rumore was just a masterpiece and so special!!!
actually 2018's song has a really deeper meaning than it seems
Hard to immagine any more beautiful and passionate Love Song than, "Dio, come ti amo" , maybe "Tu si na cosa Grande", always by Donenico Modugno, Who composed and sang the worldwide famous "Volare" as Well. When You listen to it, You easily feel the first emotions that mean You fell in love and You surrended to it ; wondering of that enchantment raping your body and soul. This is What a good real man feels like, perfectly explained in lyric. Mia Martini: Almeno tu nell'Universo could be the female answer. Great Song. Hard not to become emotional and get gooseboomse.
Don't understand any Italian but 2018 hit me from the first verse. donno why. I learnt the meaning of the lyrics a lot later but didn't matter much cause it became my favorite. You should listen to Ermal Meta's other songs. his voice is soul stirring. Piccolla Anima is my personal favorite
The re-listening to the songs from the old times !!.....very interesting initiative !!!
2015 yes please.
Give 2018 and 2020 a chance! 2018's lyrics speak about peace. 2020's took on a VERY DIFFERENT MEANING because of the pandemic...
4:14 Gigliola Cinquetti was 16 when she won. The song, actually, says: "Non ho l'età per uscire sola con te" which means "I'm not old enough/I'm not of the right age to go out alone with you".
1964 is still one of the most famous Italian song! And then... Modogno! ❤
Modugno, i am italian
@@marcosg7095 Pure io, ho digitato male.
My top 3 is 1987, then 2015 and 1997 but they really have a lot of great songs, and is my favorite ESC country.
Thank you❤️🇮🇹, I loved that those songs represented us at ESC😍.
If only we sent Sanremo winners with their respective winning song like in this past those years I would have been even better. Take a look if you want at the 80/90s ones😉
I think you should re-evaluate "Non ho l'età" by Gigliola Cinquetti. It's a legendary song that talks, in a very delicate way, about sex, not an easy topic in the 60es. She was also only 17yo when she performed (and won eurovision). Also her voice was inclredible (the short clip didn't make her justice). Here's he original full performance th-cam.com/video/Utd9cHBPfRA/w-d-xo.html
I still sing and cry the wonderful song of diodato. absolute masterpiece, one of the best songs ever
Awww, you used my video ❤️ So cool, I love your reactions!
One of my favourite Italian entries will always be "L'essenziale", Marco's voice is amazing and I loved the song at first listening and that almost never happens to me 😅
And of course Måneskin 🔥
Anoushka, You have wonderful fresh energy, keep it up!
Ne ho viste molte di recensioni ma tu resti la N1 ,sei Meravigliosa 👍🤟👏
thank you for this :) Gigliola Cinquetti's 1964 "non ho l'eta' "song is brilliant. pls listen to it in your time with english translation, it pulls at the heart strings :)
Massimo Ranieri is one of the best voices of Italy, really. He's such a good actor too, and for the 90s italian generation he's always remains the voice of Quasimodo in the Hunckback of Notre Dame (Disney) probably 🤣❤️
OMG I FORGOT ABOUT THAT! 😱🎵🎵🎵🎵 Now i have to go back listen to the italian songs from the movie!! Massimo has such a strong voice~And can be so gentle too~~
Go read the 2018 lyrics, that's one of the most powerful songs in eurovision... So meaningful
Matia Bazar probably the best Italian band ever. Antonella is one of the best singers I’ve ever come across, internationally
One complaint... The 2020's song was unbelievable.... That's a masterpiece of music and even non mi avete fatto niente.
Je confirme.
Wait no we had no feeling esc would be cancelled in 2020 ahaha, when Diodato won sanremo and accepted to go to eurovision covid was just a distant thing in china and we had no idea it would reach our country
I love the last 3 artists and songs so effing much! I was honestly the same about 2020. Completely forgot about it until early this year and then something clicked and now I'm obsessed with Diodato's music. 1984's Franco Battiato passed away recently. They just announced a tribute concert for him today that includes Mahmood and Diodato among others. You should react to Mahmood's new album btw!
i think i've never been so proud to be italian before 2021
How you can say "not good" for Marco Mengoniii, if you could understand the lyrics, you'll change your opinion 🥺❤️
Random fact about Maneskin's reach. They have been on a billboard in Times Square in NYC!!!!
I'm can't wait for the upcoming ESC 2022 in Italy!
Sad that Italy will won't participate in the upcoming JESC 2021 in Paris, France on the 19th of December, which sadly marks the first time since 2015 (When Sweden withdraw) that the winning country of the adult Eurovision of the same year did not participate in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest.
Francesco Gabbani was robbed! He deserved the win over Salvador's Ratatouille song.
You should react to Il Volo as well, they are amazing!!!
Please 🙏🙏🙏, see the lyrics and the official video of the song NON MI AVETE FATTO NIENTE (2018) and you will understand how important this song is !! Thank You 🙂🙂
Noosh! You almost got away with It... But i got you! This thumbnail... Ehehehe thats not Domenico Modugno there ;) i mean yes, that would be him from the TV fiction "Volare. The great story of Domenico Modugno" played by Giuseppe(Beppe) Fiorello! I love me some Fiorello brothers... Beppe Is so Handsome. You have taste my dear, u could've put a black & white photo of the Great Modugno but you managed to find a Handsome Beppe Fiorello out of google images
Hi Noosh, Ciao Bella, how are you? The most popular singer in the past have been , Domenico Modugno, e Claudine Villa Then others like, Mia Martini, Alan Sorrenti, il Volo, Anna Oxa ( great voice), Emma Marrone, Diodato.
In 1990 Toto Cotugno won tbe Eurovision song contest.
Noosh you are a very nice woman, I love your reaction and thank you for watching the Eurovision Italian songs ...
Love from Italy,♥️..
and forza Italia football team 🇮🇹
Noosh,you come to Italy in this year for your vacance ?
Just this: Francesca Michielin & Maneskin - song: Stato di natura
Through these videos you will have clearly perceived how the customs, tastes and habits of our country 🇮🇹 have changed over time. Some of the singers who have appeared in this video are among the greatest voices we have ever had in Italy, but unfortunately the songs with which they participated in the Eurovision were not the highlights of their career (except some cases). Also maybe not everyone knows that differently from other European countries where the song chosen for the Eurovision comes through a selection for that, in Italy the winning song of the Sanremo Festival (held every year in February in the Liguria town of Sanremo) will be performed to the Eurovision Song Contest.
The singers who win the Sanremo Festival CAN choose if they want to participate in ESC, but they can also change the song, if they want to.
@@lellab.8179 it's true, but these are particular and very rare events, in fact it does not happen often. In fact, it almost never happens that a singer gives up this great opportunity, especially if we consider it could be unrepeatable for his career.
Can you do this for Germany as well?
After Maneskin You must know others italian rock band . I suggest you...Seveso Casino Palace for example. The frontwoman (Silvia) is an amazing singer. Her and Damiano are my favourites singers. I' d like to listen them together...I suggest you " In four and for hate"....a very cool song for me....
If I knew you were doing this I would have prepered a bit of info to spice up your experience :DDD
You're very young and you might not know this but the music that you saw singing in the 80/90s were old traditional Sanremo's singers and people in Italy was no longer following that kind of music, at least not people of a reasonable age. I for once I was in my 20s and I remember none of my friends or relatives liked anymore that type of music and the Eurofestival (that was the name of Eurovision Song Contest at that time) had a very reduces audience in Italy, I have to say EBU was not putting huge efforts to removate the festival either, all in all it was a very old style prudish show so RAI, Italy State Broadcaster participating to the show decided it wasn't worth the effort, however with Internet and Social Media growing everything changed. The event became more modern while the music acts improved and because of social medias it all could reached a much larger audience and any broadcaster suddenly found the show more appealing since the money and efforts put on it come back in spades for ads and royalties etc now that it's seen worldwide.
Lol there were more singers named Domenico than I could count🤣
Well, Al Bano and Romina were a real couple, and he was young and only looking old 😂 they aren't togheter right now, but have a lot of children. One of their daughters, went missing years ago in New Orleans.
Nice Noosh101 you could do the video reaction on that famous English song, which all the English had been singing for a month "It's coming home" ...................... sorry sorry I wanted to say "It's coming ROME" and then a video reaction on the other famous Italian song "POPOPOPO, POPOPOPOPO" thanks in advance. 😁🙏😁🙏😁🙏

Modugno didn't finish last, he was disqualified because his song lasted too long and he didn't want to adapt it to the length required by Eurovision (each song must last a maximum of a certain amount).

I suggest you the 1984, “I treni per Touzer”, really a good Battiato’ song, great author! ❤
While you are one of my favourite (if not the favourite) eurovision bloggers, I cannot understand how someone who loves eurovision so much knows nothing about older contests. Not even the winning songs of each year.
I only watched from the early 00s unfortunately so I’m learning a lot about the older years only now. I’m getting there though :) slowly slowly thanks for watching ❤️
Il Volo should have won in 2015....they were the best and they won the people vote!!!!
I agree. I am still bitter about it.
Alice
Battiato
Matia Bazar ( voice singer Antonella Ruggiero)
Mia Martini

Well you always have to consider that Italy has Sanremo so they don't choose strategically we just chose the best song that there are in Sanremo each year or it should be the voting it's similar to Eurovision so televote it's a thing But there's judge so maybe some do but i don't know
You definitely Need to listen "Fai Rumore" by Diodato better and with all your Heart. It's pure poetry, One of the most beautiful and emotional and touching italian song ever (Our symbolic song during pandemic time...) Please, give it a chance. Definitely 2020 winner so far. And i'm so Happy Diodato will return next month for Esc2022 with this Song! ❤️ xoxo from Italy
My favourite entry was in 2015 Il Volo and second Nel Blu di Pinto di Blu. I'm in shock they didn't win.
Anna Oxa... you should check some of her stuff out... her voice is majestic.
You have to listen and read the lyrics of La cura of Franco Battiato, it's a masterpiece
Hi.
You were asking the reasons why Italy was absent for so long in the 90s and 2000s from the Eurovision Song Contest and, trusting that you will be pleased, below I copy what is written on Wikipedia:
In 1994 RAI (the Italian national public TV, the equivalent of the BBC in England) withdrew from Eurovision again, always motivating its choice with little interest from the public. This absence lasted until the 1996 edition, at the end of which the EBU spared no criticism of Italian state television for its behavior.
Perhaps because of this, and probably also due to pressure from record companies, in 1997 RAI returned to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest: it happened in Ireland, with Jalisse who, among the favorites on the eve, won fourth place with "Fiumi di parole" (rivers of words), the winning song of Sanremo that same year. The commentator was Ettore Andenna, an advocate of European broadcasts, while Peppi Franzelin gave an account of the votes assigned to other countries by Italy (the same couple had been present 4 years earlier, also in Ireland). It was undoubtedly an excellent result, not without shadows according to Andenna himself, who claimed that RAI did not seem satisfied with the predictions and that he wanted at all costs to avoid winning.
On several occasions shadows have been cast - never proven or denied - on an alleged lack of interest, if not a real boycott of the RAI leaders of the 90s towards the Eurovision Song Contest. Already for the 1993 edition, hosted by Ireland, suspicions were raised against the broadcaster, guilty of having hindered Enrico Ruggeri in order not to win the event, in order to avoid having to organize the following edition as a matter of course; Ruggeri himself did so in his book "Piccoli mostri" (little monsters) of 2000. The presenter of that edition, Ettore Andenna, in an interview in 2001 stated that "certainly there has always been a sort of terror on the part of "high ranking" television stations to win the Eurovision since this would have meant organizing it the following year and there was no desire to invest [...] money with the fear of an audience not up to par. These are things that everyone knows, but woe to tell them ».
But the biggest controversies concerned the 1997 edition, still in Ireland, which saw the Jalisse already winners from Sanremo among the favorites for the success. Also this edition, for Italy, was commented by Andenna and, according to his words, the RAI circles were not happy with this possibility: "an hour before the start of the event, I asked to speak with the head of the structure and I said him: "Mario [Maffucci, nda], here the bookmakers give us winners or at worst second". I think back with a smile at the frost on the other side and at the confirmation request whether I was kidding or not. And when I confirmed that even I had bet, the connection was quickly cut and never resumed until midnight when they told me that the broadcast was going well, that I had wasted twenty pounds, that even bookmakers can be wrong and blah blah blah. I have always been left with the question of whether by keeping quiet [...] I would not have favored the Jalisse ».
Andenna's words never been appreciated by the Jalisses; in particular, the duo claimed that upon returning from Ireland they were the victim of a "witch hunt", and that also because of this they were subsequently marginalized from the Italian music scene. Regarding the lack of victory in 1997, they also declared that "we were torpedoed because RAI did not want to know about organizing the demonstration" and, with reference to their immediate future, "when we returned from Eurovision we were" canceled ". We had to do the Festivalbar, go back to Sanremo [...] Nothing. They turned us all against us ». The story was resumed in 2010 in the book "Vox populi" by Gigi Vesigna, well received by those directly involved, which traces the various disputes.
In any case, that of 1997 was for Italy the last participation in the competition for a long time: in fact, the protests of Annalisa Minetti and the record companies, which in 1998 wanted to take part in the competition, were in vain. For the next decade, however, no reasons were given by RAI anymore.
Thus it happened that in Italy we no longer heard of Eurovision Song Contest, except on rare occasions and almost always from foreign sources, so the event fell into oblivion more and more so that some Italian artists who had participated in the past even believed that the demonstration had been suppressed.
It was only in 2006 that RAI and the EBU came together to negotiate a return of Italy to the 2007 edition, but without results. Meanwhile, at the 2008 edition, the debut of San Marino (whose public network, San Marino RTV, is a company 50% owned by RAI) took place with the song "Complice", interpreted by the Miodio group and finished last in the first semifinal. In September of the same year, before the 2009 edition, Raffaella Carrà asked and obtained permission to host inside "Carràmba! Che Fortuna" (carràmba! how luck) a singer or group that took part in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 to make the event known and rekindle interest in it; in particular, the winner Dima Bilan was present at the first episode. Eight of those that actually took place were planned; that of the Danish Simon Mathew was preceded by a real praise of the Carrà at the event, after which some groups and singers, who had to take part in the following episodes, were no longer presented.
The EBU, with the intention of having the greatest possible number of participants, did everything possible to ensure that Italy also returned to participate. In particular, in 2008 the then head of Eurovision Svante Stockselius had announced, during a meeting with the OGAE Serbia, that in the event of a return the country will become part of the Big (i.e. nations that, for their fundamental contribution at the EBU, they have an untouchable status that grants them direct access to the final).
In 2009 the live broadcast of the final returned to Italy via streaming, broadcast on the website of the newspaper la Repubblica and commented on via blogs by Gino Castaldo and Ernesto Assante.
On 6 September 2010, the then director of RAI 2, Massimo Liofredi, in presenting the fourth edition of "X Factor", surprisingly mentioned the possibility that the winner of the talent could participate in the Eurovision Song Contest, suddenly rekindling the interest of Italy around the event. The following 2 December the EBU reveals that RAI has forwarded the application to participate and on the 31st of the same month, with the release of the final list of participants, the official announcement that Italy would participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 arrived, held that year in Düsseldorf, returning after 13 years of absence; he would also have competed directly in the final among the so-called Big (together with Germany, United Kingdom, Spain, France), that is, among the countries that contribute most to the activities of the institution. Liofredi, interviewed on the matter, also announced that RAI would choose its representative internally.
This choice, which took place during the 2011 Sanremo Festival, then fell on the winner of the Youth category, Raphael Gualazzi.
