Sanremo is older than Eurovision and, actually Esc structure is based on it. Sanremo is sacred in Italy. It is THE contest, and singers take part in it to win Sanremo, not to go Eurovision (Sanremo is considered more prestigious). Of course in the last years singers pay more attention to Esc and to its potentiality, especially younger contestants, who are more modern and have a more contemporary vibe. Sanremo requires songs to be strictly in Italian, that is why also in Esc all our songs are in our language (except for a few lines at times). All the best Italian composers, authors, writers, singers want to take part in Sanremo, so the quality is usually very high (well, we did have Elettra Lamborghini this year, but we all make mistakes. Surely entertaing, nobody had twerked on the Sanremo stage before, but clearly not quality enough)
Simply eras changed. The Sanremo Festival is not a Eurovision selection (Sanremo is a lot more important than ESC in Italy) and Italy sends the Sanremo winner to Eurovision. This means that the songs that are sent are made for the Italian audience and not specifically for Eurovision and dramatic ballads were popular back then. From 1997 a lot changed. And a lot of different artists and genres became popular and the combination of new artists and music, Sanremo judges who know about music and good Sanremo entries made us come back pretty well
First of all we have to say that Italy invented Eurovision Song Contest because the Rai's general director proposed a song festival in Europe like Sanremo Italian Song Festival for the union of european peoples. But in all this Years Italy snobbed Eurovision because we have a big festival to promote the italian music in the world.
Italian in Eurovision is amazing, so many favorite songs....soldi, volare, grande amore, occidentalis karma... Mia Martini with rapsodia deserved the win in my oppinion, what an outstanding voice !!! Died to young, but i'm still listen to her music ❤️❤️❤️
RIP Mia Martini💔 She passed away only 3 years after her last participation at the age of 47. She suffered from painful fibroids, for which she took prescription medication. On 14 May 1995, her body was found in the apartment in Via Liguria 38 in Cardano al Campo. According to the coroner's report, her death was by cardiac arrest (in her body traces of cocaine were found). Her body was cremated.
Many of those Italian songs from the 50s and 60s were world hits even sung by artists in Hollywod. It's a shame that in those few seconds you listen to these unknown songs are not enough to fully appreciate a song, especially ballads.
What changed was how the competitors for ESC were selected. At the beginings the audience didn't have any saying in the selection but only some "qualified" experts selected the singer, after the break it is common to send the winner of the Sanremo Festival (if they agree!) and like others well explained in the comments Sanremo Festival is a HUGE thing in Italy where the audience is A LOT more involved reflecting the current miusic scenario in the country unlikely in the past.
1964 was the first victory for a Southern European country and Italy. At the age of 16 years and 92 days, Gigliola Cinquetti became the youngest winner of the contest yet; a record she held until 1986.In the event, she won the most crushing victory in the history of the contest, with a score almost three times that of her nearest rival, a feat extremely unlikely ever to be beaten under the post-1974 scoring system.Winner Italy got 49 points and second UK got only 17 points.
Massimo Ranieri is so dramatic also because he's an actor too.... He worked in some shows on raitv I think you could find them interesting if you like him... He plays, sings, dances...... He's wonderful
a little clarification ... it is not that in Italy until 97 only the ballads were listened to and after no, in fact ... as you well know the songs from the Eurovision of Italy come from Sanremo. sanremo since its inception until the end of the 90s has always been conducted and directed (apart from a few rare exceptions) by the presendators themselves, who also chose the songs, these presenters (such as Mr. Baudo and Bongiorno) have always given an imprint always very classic at festival, so much so that from the 80s / 90s it was considered an ancient festival and not loved by young people. when these presenters stopped conducting sanremo because the elderly and deceased and sanremo was entrusted to young presenters, new and different genres began to participate in the festival, which existed even before in italy with great success, but which did not participate in sanremo .. .
I really appreciate Italian music as a whole. Italy is a land of art. It was, is and will be. But I'm young, so my taste in music is geared towards new things. MAHMOOD
In 1974,Italy refused to broadcast the televised contest on the state television channel RAI because the contest coincided with the intense political campaigning for the 1974 Italian referendum on divorce, which was held a month later in May. RAI felt that Gigliola Cinquetti's song, which was entitled "Sì", and repeatedly featured the word "si" (yes),could be accused of being a subliminal message and a form of propaganda to influence the Italian voting public to vote "yes" in the referendum. The song was not played on most Italian state TV and radio stations for over a month.
Fai Rumore is already seen as THE song about the Pandemic and what it did to us a social creatures... The isolation, the loss of life, the inevitable change of habits. Even though the lyrics were not about it at all, his performance at the Arena of Verona and despair in the voice will always bring us back to this point in history. I can see it as being part of history classes twenty years from now.
This was soooo hard - but ended with Mia Martini - the queen herself... but Marco and Mahmood are still on my playlist after all these years -actually many of Mahmood's songs I play regularily - but Mia Martini had an impact on my young self. About the absence RAI has expressed a few times thoughout the years that they are more interested in San Remo and rumors say that they begrundled not winning more times.. espcially in 97 they thought they had the secure winner and was dissapointed. After Il Volo there were fears that Italy would pull a grumpy again - luckilly they didn't. About some of the clips, it's frustrating to hear good songs reduced to the non recognicable parts... 64, 65,70, 72, 83 were not represented well :) But that's minor things... love these vids!
@Thomas Petersen I'm so happy to hear that people outside Italy (like you) know and adore the amazing talent that Mia Martini was. She truly was one of the best Italian singers of all time.
If you noticed there is no video of any 1964 competitors except Italy.As with the first ever contest in 1956, no video recording of the actual contest performance was known to survive however, like the 1956 contest, an audio recording does exist.This is said to be as a result of a fire at the studios of Danish broadcaster DR in the 1970s and the fact that none of the other broadcasters recorded the entire show.(Only videos of Cinquetti's Sanremo performance and her Eurovision winning reprise have both appeared on TH-cam.)
I've never seen all the italian Eurovision songs, but I can tell you that the dramatic love songs were the must in those years (and the romantic ballads are really famous today) , but not the only kind of italian music. In the last years it's also changed how the Song for Eurovision it's chosen. We also have jazz, a lot of songwriters, different kinds of folk, rock and metal too 🤣
L'italiano é la più Bella lingua del mondo !!!! Wonderful Mahmood in 2019! But level is so high, now... I love Italia, viva Italia 🇮🇹 💖❤️💕💋♥️💞😘 Love from 🇫🇷 France. Italian language is a wonderful music, anyway !!!
👍🏻 1958, 1975, 1987, 1992, 2011, 2015, 2018, ❤️ 2019 ❤️, 2020..." Italia, twelve points... here is the vote from france. Thank you for this amazing show!"
I know that we stopped taking part to Esc because RAI wanted to save money and didn't want to host. There are rumours that a few times RAI even asked not to be voted by national juries. Especially in 1997, Fiumi di parole was doing very good, and people were starting to wonder whether the 98 contest would be held in Milan or Rome, and RAI got scared af... and Jalisse placed 4th. Voices say it happened the same with Mahmood. But they are only rumours.... Wouldn't be surprised if they were true though.
I heard that Italy won’t win as the professional juries will vote them down in order for Italy not to host after the fiasco of 1991. Toto embarrassed the ESC and EBU with his chaotic hosting.
"Non mi avete fatto niente" is less flashy than some of the other recent Italian entries, but it's beautiful. The two singers' voices together blend so well. It's in my Top 3 Italian entries of all time, definitely.
it is quite shallow to say that all italian entries up to 1992 sounded all the same or dramatic. Emilio pericoli's entry entered the charts in over 20 countries, including USA, and was covered by at least 50 foreign singers, it was swingy and a real grower, but you were laughing too much during the video to listen to it. Gigliola Cinquetti entered the charts all over the world with "non ho l'età" and was a song of a young girl in love with a boy she could not date, Domenico Modugno's 1958 entry renewed the idea of pop around the world entering the charts worldwide, Matia bazar also was quite contemporary and you didn't either realize that their vocal skills were absolutely gorgeuos. Riccardo Fogli Entry was an elegant and beautiful schlager song, no wonder that he was quite big internationally. Claudio Villa's entry "Addio Addio" also entered the charts in many countries and was covered by many international artists. Sergio Endrigo's Marianne was a great success in latin countries and also in Uk with the voice of Cliff Richards, Renato rascel's entry "Romantica" became one of the best selling italian songs around the world after "Volare". Hundreds of people sang that song in over 40 languages. Bobby Solo's Se Piangi Se ridi sold something like 6 million singles, two of which in Japan. Betty Curtis 'Al di la" was another huge international success. The version of Emilio pericoli also entered the USA Top Ten back in those days. Alan Sorrenti's entry "non so che darei" was a huge hit at the time in northern europe countries, in Spain, Italy , Germany and Greece and he sang like that way before the disco days of bee Gees. At a certain point you asked. Whid did Italy left eurovision after 1992? Well u also gave the answer humming to songs that we italians don't even remember like "Luca Barbarossa's "Ti scrivo", and completely ignoring melodic masterpieces like Gianni Morandi's "Occhi di ragazza". Saying that all those songs sounded the same without contextualizing the Era in which they were sung is either shallow or at least not correct.
You are fucking right. They were so annoying to react that way without even listening to most songs. Stating the dramatic songs are less interesting than poppy schlager song is the main reason why italy thought it was useless to join esc.
@@daniellepavlovic8487 they did not even realize that Mia Martini participated both in 1977 and 1992..... ^^ or that Romina Power was the daughter of the hollywood actor Tyrone Power ^^
@@daniellepavlovic8487 I wuldn't say that they were so dramatic. Lyrics were often complex, and these were sultry multi-layered ballads. Italian ballads set the international standard back in the 60es. Even americans and British singers often visited italy and italian producers to have that kind of ballads in their repertories. Perhaps people should know that even people like Robert Plant from led Zeppelin started their career singing an italian ballad back in 1967
As an Italian Mahmood has my heart, for him as an artist, for his music, for Soldi but also for the symbol he represented by performing on the Eurovision stage after the controversy over his victory in Sanremo. I agree that after returning in 2011 Italy has improved a lot, apart from "Non mi avete fatto niente " in 2018 and "La mia città" in 2014, those were really really bad. But I have to vote for Insieme 1990 for the message.
let's not forget that 2014 was I think the only year where there was an internal selection to choose the eurovision representative(emma), otherwise it would have been Arisa since she had won sanremo
The 1992-93-97 edition were boycotted by the Italian broadcaster, in fact it is said that they had to win. Italy no longer participated because winning meant spending money on a program not followed by the Italian public.
Italians began to follow Eurovision more in 2015, before few knew of its existence. The Eurovision, still still, does not reach the levels of audience of Sanremo
After Italy didn't get a good result in 1967 with a Sanremo winning song (which could be related a problem between Modugno and the orchestra) they stopped sending the song that won the festival, they often (not always) sent the Sanremo winner but with another song (sometimes not even know in Italy), even 1990 song is not really known here despite Toto Cutugno being really famous (expecially for coming 2nd in all his sanremo attempts, like 7 times, also in 1990, while no one remembers he won it once), on the other side, after 2011 we have generally sent the sanremo winner of that year (2013, 2015, 2017-19), those are the ones that have done well with televote too (all in top10), same for 1997 song, the song that didn't win sanremo didn't get high positions with televote (2011 and 2012 were loved by juries) [2011-2013 singers were chosen by an internal jury during sanremo, probably 2013 choice being the same of the winner made rai change the ideas, anyway Emma, that came 2nd in 2011 and won in 2012, was picked internally in 2014 for other reasons, could be because she was the best selling woman in 2013 in Italy or because Sanremo 2014 was weak], anyway Emma didn't have any other song that she could have sung at esc soooo, she didn't even try to get a new song, overall italians interests over the contest has been low for most of its years, (with the most watched editions being the '91 one held in Rome only because it was shown live and not later at night as the other editions and all the ones after 2015, with the numbers of watchers being around 3-3,5 m compared to the 1-1,5 m of 2011-2014 editions)
I'm a straight female and I also think Romina Power is one of the most beautiful women that ever lived. She also happens to be American actor Thyrone Power's daughter. My dad had a huge crush on her and considered her his ideal woman, in terms of beauty.
The fact that changed music productions in Italy, maybe, is the Start of X-factor Italy, and The Voice of Italy, and others talent shows that brought so many new artists on stage. Artists who, before that, didn't have any producer. Maneskin are from X Factor Italy, Emma is from a talent show called "Amici", Francesca Michielin is from X Factor Italy, Marco Mengoni is from X Factor Italy, Il Volo is from a Kid talent show on the first channel.. etc. etc. End After these talent shows, also the producers changed their style, artists and type of music. Saluti a tutti, ciao!
You may not have liked Matia Bazar (in the 1979 offering), but they were a real avant-guard pop group, not just in Italy but internationally. Antonella Ruggiero (the lead singer) went on to have a brilliant, and very successful solo career. This is one of Matia Bazar's best known songs from the 80s: th-cam.com/video/GIjckqVaqEs/w-d-xo.html
Rip Mia Martini💔 in Italy was considered one of the best performers Rapsodia is not her best song in my opinion. Massimo Ranieri beautiful voice and good actor..I love Mahmood and Marco Mengoni Marco every song they are in my playlist❤️
The real problem in Italy is that honestly we are not capable to be coherent with our choices. Just see to the last picks in music: we are capable to pass from the classic melodramatic ballads (whicih is in fact very italian) to Mahmood, which mix italian to arabic sounds (not a easy choice in Italy) or to the Maneskin: a genderfluid young rock group very different from italian choices... but then we are not capable to insert these new bold ideas in our society or structures... it's like we are a little schizophrenic.
What do you think of Italy's 2021 offering? Maneskin: "Zitti e buoni": it's glam rock - couldn't be more different to the rest of their stuff from ESC!
hi guys i'm an italian guy and you are lovely... 1958, for sure, is the best one and the most famous around the world in 1962 yes, is dramatic, the song spoke about a sad love story.... in 1963 ahahahahaha the singers in 1969,1970 and '71, they did the italian music history franco battiato in 1985 and al bano in '86 wasgreat singers in70s and 80s in 1997 is one of the best... incredible song... in 2011, Raphael Gualazzi was wonderful, one of the best singers now but my favorites songs are... Diodato 2020 Mahmood 2019 Francesco Gabbani 2017 Il Volo 2015 Thank you guys for this amazing video... at 22:37 i think it was normal, for sure, before, intalian people didin't live very well, maybe that's why dramatic music before but the times change and the music as well
I am Italian and I didn't know almost all the songs featuring in this video 😅 The fact is that I don't like the old Italian pop music and I didn't listen to it, I would only listen to American pop music. Fortunately today the new generations of singers embraced the sounds from many parts of the world and I enjoy listening to Italian pop music as well: Mahmood for example, I love that guy, he is such a great musician. I can't wait to attend one of his concerts this year. I'm so happy he's so well known abroad, because finally people can see a modern and not stereotyped version of Italy.
well, ESC entries comes from Sanremo Festival, and in the 80-90 period the festival was really down in audience. Therefore it was put a huge effort to make it more modern to appeal a younger public. Having a youger public voting, more modern songs won.
ESC entries from the 70s weren't from Sanremo anymore until 1997, and then the rule of the selection by Sanremo came back just in 2015. Italy and its music just changed over the years, that's it. But the real level of Italian music never changed out of Eurovision.
Random thoughts: MIA MARTINI was one of a kind. Beautiful voice and soul. Such a terrible loss. MASSIMO RANIERI is a one man show, really! The gentleman can do everything. "Gente di Mare" is still my favourite, UMBERTO TOZZI has a wonderful voice. His "sparring partner", the singer you fancy is RAF (real name: Raffaele Riefoli) is a super nice guy and a good singer/songwriter. You should do a reaction to that performance 😉 MARCO MENGONI deserved better!! C'mon! The video of the brand new single "Venere e Marte" feat. Takagi & Ketra and Frah Quintale will be released tomorrow so check it out. FRANCESCO GABBANI has an interesting tone but not for everybody... DIODATO in the Arena, the beautiful Verona's amphitheatre ❤️
Sanremo was born in the 1951, is the oldest european music festival. I hope that you will do others reaction of italian music, or Sanremo songs, you will discover a lot of polyedric artist. So happy that you love our music, i loved your reaction ☺️ but.. I confess.. i'm still laughing for Joy's: "Reggae?!?! 😨 Is so tragic" in the Finland's video 🤣
Please notice that Iva Zanicchi representing Italy in1969 and Gianni Morandi in 1970 and Massimo ranieri in 1973, that all took part at sanremo festival this year and Gianni arrived 3rd!!!
Fun (well, I hope so anyway!) fact about Marco Mengoni and his origins: he was born in a small town about an hour's drive North of Rome, called Ronciglione. His family owns a bakery in the neighbouring town, called Sutri, where my parents also happen to live. It's a beautiful place, but not much ever happens there. Back when Marco won Sanremo, his parents had a massive celebration in their bakery and the whole town just partied. Someone then hung a homophobic note on the door of the bakery, insulting Marco, but it was taken down and the celebration resumed. And the atmosphere was amazing!
Hi Guys , thank you for your reaction. I agree with you about our entry. We knew all along before that Marco Mengoni was winning this Sanremo because other songs level wasn't the same. Some were good like Madame, Rosa Chemical but nothing special. This Sanremo was a lot about politics, in Italy we have a far right government right now, I dont have nothing bad to say about Giorgia Meloni, but people has a bit of fear for her party background then we are doing much more progressist activities, TV shows are getting more educational about human rights, civil rights and so on. And like this was Sanremo 2023 , music wasn't great like last year but we saw in it a lot of really good monologs. If you want to see something special from Sanremo 2023 look for Rosa Chemical's Song
great job! Betty Curtis from 1961 was actor Tony Curtis' daughter. Great job as always, guys. They were so great after coming back in 2011 that I love everyone of them. But honestly, I had such a connection with Occidentali's Karma (which I rooted to win that year), so that HAD to be first, then close behind Soldi (which I feel SHOULD'VE beat Arcade, even though I rooted for Keiino), and then Volare, because it is TIMELESS. But got I would do unspeakable things with Marco Mengoni TBH.
@@donatellaborciccibelloni5328 you're so right i am SO sorry. I KNOW there's a daughter of an American actor in the competition and I forget who know. Maybe from France?
@@twostepcub well consider that Albano at the time of their engagement was far more popular, in italy and abroad, than romina that was only "the daughter of"... probably she was the one who gained most from that marriage also considering the singing talent of Al Bano.. :)))
Before watching, Italy 1997 for me :) Jalisse - Fiumi di parole. After watching these in sequence so far, I miss the live orchestra and wish they would bring it back. 2015 is a close second.
Hungary is not participating in Eurovision 2021. Once we are done, we might do all the countries that left the competition ... (depends how much energy we will have left ... ;-) )
Ciao! 🙂 As I mentioned yesterday the official video for "Venere e Marte" Takagi & Ketra feat. Marco Mengoni, Frah Quintale has been released this afternoon. Give it a listen/watch if you're interested. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/BfDsoB0jhsY/w-d-xo.html Hopefully is available abroad too.
The rumour mill, particularly during the early years of the Internet, threw lots of theories about Italy's absence to the wall, and some of those rumours have stuck. It is agreed by pretty much everybody that RAI simply got bored of Eurovision after 1993, particularly because with the expansion into Eastern Europe, they felt Italy's influence was fading and it was a case of "taking their ball home." They had won as recently as 1990 was it wasn't just a case of them feeling grumpy about a run of bad results. The 1997 rumour is a bit more layered. RAI clearly thought that Jalisse could win. But they would have had to have been agreed as entrant long before San Remo, so the timeline is a bit borked. In any case, they were royally p-d off about not winning, and was so p-d off that they simply did a Luxembourg and vowed never to return. It's never been fully understood why Jalisse suddenly turned up with the kind of mid-tempo song out of the blue, or why Italy took it so badly when they lost, They had one more year of orchestra-backed Eurovision, they could have taken San Remo 1998 to Birminham without losing face The rest after 2011 of course is history. Oh, except for one last rumour/theory. Fans all agree that 1991 was a hosting disaster. So what if the EBU make sure that they never host again? Couple of 2nds and 3rd places make it look oh so close and maybe next year. But the truth? EBU deliberately nobble the voting to stop RAI ever hosting again. It's a theory worth exploring.
When you said that all italian songs in eurovision sounds the same or are at least similar you're actually right, that's because every italian song that goes to eurovision it the winning song from Sanremo's festival and it's extremely difficult to have something new and different that comes from that event, apart from soldi from Mahmood. Nice video guys!
semplicemente san remo è sempre stata un trasmissione per famiglie e nel passato anche un po bacchetona, nel senso che se andavi un po fuori dai canoni o non ci arrivavi o se ci arrivavi eri punito per la stravaganza. Porto l'esempio di vasco rossi uno dei rocker oggi piu amati d'italia in sette partecipazioni è sempre arrivato fra gli ultimi. Una delle sue canzoni piu amate di sempre si classifico ultima "Vado al massimo". Oggi la società è piu evoluta ed aperta e la classifica di san remo ed i pezzi che arrivano la rispecchiano. Detto ciò nei pezzi del passato ci sono canzoni iconiche dell'italia una fra tutte "dio come ti amo" di modugno . Traducetela è bellissima. Anche "nel blu dipinto di blu" "non ho l'età" "gente di mare". Mentre altre che amate tipo i jalisse "fiumi di parole" o Insieme di cotugno che ha vinto , in Italia non le ama nessuno.
Un'altra cosa interessante da notare è che la musica veramente famosa degli anni 70/80 è altra, intendo quella che sentiamo e cantiamo ancora oggi. Gli anni 70/80 sono gli anni di Guccini, De Gregori, Dè Andre ma nessuno di loro ha mai sfondato a san remo, un po' perchè il ritmo delle canzoni è un po' inadatto ma anche perchè erano troppo politiche (Guccini in particolare). La musica che è finita all'eurovision in quegli anni famosa in italia, ma non sono cose che ancora ascoltiamo, perchè era musica dei suoi tempi e ora suona un po' antica.
Apparently you don't follow Italian Top 100. Because if you do, you would find Fedez with Achille Lauro as number 1. You also have AK 7even, Rocco Hunt, Fred De Palma, J-AX. My absolute favourite recently is Ghali. Beyond Italy, does anybody know these. NO. My point, Italy has lost world appeal it had in the good old days and the guaranteed world hits it enjoyed.
Even though Eurovision is an Italian invention, Italians learned of its existence around 2015, before that it wasn't even broadcast on TV. Italy did not participate from 1998 to 2010 due to total disinterest. In Italy we have the San Remo Festival, from which the Eurovison derives, for us only that is important.

She passed away only 3 years after her last participation at the age of 47. She suffered from painful fibroids, for which she took prescription medication.

if you like Massimo Ranieri you must absolutely listen "perdere l'amore" it is his trademark
also "vent'anni" and "rose rosse" they are very beautiful not to mention "se bruciasse la città"
Massimo Ranieri is so dramatic also because he's an actor too.... He worked in some shows on raitv I think you could find them interesting if you like him... He plays, sings, dances...... He's wonderful
a little clarification ... it is not that in Italy until 97 only the ballads were listened to and after no, in fact ... as you well know the songs from the Eurovision of Italy come from Sanremo. sanremo since its inception until the end of the 90s has always been conducted and directed (apart from a few rare exceptions) by the presendators themselves, who also chose the songs, these presenters (such as Mr. Baudo and Bongiorno) have always given an imprint always very classic at festival, so much so that from the 80s / 90s it was considered an ancient festival and not loved by young people. when these presenters stopped conducting sanremo because the elderly and deceased and sanremo was entrusted to young presenters, new and different genres began to participate in the festival, which existed even before in italy with great success, but which did not participate in sanremo .. .
You were right choosing Milan as the first italian city that came to your mind because Mahmood is actually from Milan.
I really appreciate Italian music as a whole. Italy is a land of art. It was, is and will be. But I'm young, so my taste in music is geared towards new things.

RAI felt that Gigliola Cinquetti's song, which was entitled "Sì", and repeatedly featured the word "si" (yes),could be accused of being a subliminal message and a form of propaganda to influence the Italian voting public to vote "yes" in the referendum. The song was not played on most Italian state TV and radio stations for over a month.
Fai Rumore is already seen as THE song about the Pandemic and what it did to us a social creatures... The isolation, the loss of life, the inevitable change of habits. Even though the lyrics were not about it at all, his performance at the Arena of Verona and despair in the voice will always bring us back to this point in history.
I can see it as being part of history classes twenty years from now.
This was soooo hard - but ended with Mia Martini - the queen herself... but Marco and Mahmood are still on my playlist after all these years -actually many of Mahmood's songs I play regularily - but Mia Martini had an impact on my young self.
About the absence RAI has expressed a few times thoughout the years that they are more interested in San Remo and rumors say that they begrundled not winning more times.. espcially in 97 they thought they had the secure winner and was dissapointed. After Il Volo there were fears that Italy would pull a grumpy again - luckilly they didn't.
About some of the clips, it's frustrating to hear good songs reduced to the non recognicable parts... 64, 65,70, 72, 83 were not represented well :) But that's minor things... love these vids!
@Thomas Petersen I'm so happy to hear that people outside Italy (like you) know and adore the amazing talent that Mia Martini was. She truly was one of the best Italian singers of all time.
If you noticed there is no video of any 1964 competitors except Italy.As with the first ever contest in 1956, no video recording of the actual contest performance was known to survive however, like the 1956 contest, an audio recording does exist.This is said to be as a result of a fire at the studios of Danish broadcaster DR in the 1970s and the fact that none of the other broadcasters recorded the entire show.(Only videos of Cinquetti's Sanremo performance and her Eurovision winning reprise have both appeared on TH-cam.)
I've never seen all the italian Eurovision songs, but I can tell you that the dramatic love songs were the must in those years (and the romantic ballads are really famous today) , but not the only kind of italian music. In the last years it's also changed how the Song for Eurovision it's chosen. We also have jazz, a lot of songwriters, different kinds of folk, rock and metal too 🤣
Grazie per questa bella reazione. Vediamo se in 2021 l'Italia riuscirà a presentare nuovamente una buona canzone! Grazie
Grande Amore Best italian entry 💓 Greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷🇮🇹💓

I know that we stopped taking part to Esc because RAI wanted to save money and didn't want to host. There are rumours that a few times RAI even asked not to be voted by national juries. Especially in 1997, Fiumi di parole was doing very good, and people were starting to wonder whether the 98 contest would be held in Milan or Rome, and RAI got scared af... and Jalisse placed 4th. Voices say it happened the same with Mahmood. But they are only rumours.... Wouldn't be surprised if they were true though.
I heard that Italy won’t win as the professional juries will vote them down in order for Italy not to host after the fiasco of 1991. Toto embarrassed the ESC and EBU with his chaotic hosting.
Honestly "non mi avete fatto niente" should have won, It has a beautifull message
"Non mi avete fatto niente" is less flashy than some of the other recent Italian entries, but it's beautiful. The two singers' voices together blend so well. It's in my Top 3 Italian entries of all time, definitely.
CHECK VIDEO. THAT WILL EXPLAIN SO MANY THINGS.
it is quite shallow to say that all italian entries up to 1992 sounded all the same or dramatic. Emilio pericoli's entry entered the charts in over 20 countries, including USA, and was covered by at least 50 foreign singers, it was swingy and a real grower, but you were laughing too much during the video to listen to it. Gigliola Cinquetti entered the charts all over the world with "non ho l'età" and was a song of a young girl in love with a boy she could not date, Domenico Modugno's 1958 entry renewed the idea of pop around the world entering the charts worldwide, Matia bazar also was quite contemporary and you didn't either realize that their vocal skills were absolutely gorgeuos. Riccardo Fogli Entry was an elegant and beautiful schlager song, no wonder that he was quite big internationally. Claudio Villa's entry "Addio Addio" also entered the charts in many countries and was covered by many international artists. Sergio Endrigo's Marianne was a great success in latin countries and also in Uk with the voice of Cliff Richards, Renato rascel's entry "Romantica" became one of the best selling italian songs around the world after "Volare". Hundreds of people sang that song in over 40 languages. Bobby Solo's Se Piangi Se ridi sold something like 6 million singles, two of which in Japan. Betty Curtis 'Al di la" was another huge international success. The version of Emilio pericoli also entered the USA Top Ten back in those days. Alan Sorrenti's entry "non so che darei" was a huge hit at the time in northern europe countries, in Spain, Italy , Germany and Greece and he sang like that way before the disco days of bee Gees. At a certain point you asked. Whid did Italy left eurovision after 1992? Well u also gave the answer humming to songs that we italians don't even remember like "Luca Barbarossa's "Ti scrivo", and completely ignoring melodic masterpieces like Gianni Morandi's "Occhi di ragazza". Saying that all those songs sounded the same without contextualizing the Era in which they were sung is either shallow or at least not correct.
You are fucking right. They were so annoying to react that way without even listening to most songs. Stating the dramatic songs are less interesting than poppy schlager song is the main reason why italy thought it was useless to join esc.
@@daniellepavlovic8487 they did not even realize that Mia Martini participated both in 1977 and 1992..... ^^ or that Romina Power was the daughter of the hollywood actor Tyrone Power ^^
@@daniellepavlovic8487 I wuldn't say that they were so dramatic. Lyrics were often complex, and these were sultry multi-layered ballads. Italian ballads set the international standard back in the 60es. Even americans and British singers often visited italy and italian producers to have that kind of ballads in their repertories. Perhaps people should know that even people like Robert Plant from led Zeppelin started their career singing an italian ballad back in 1967
@@donatellaborciccibelloni5328 I know I know! Love italian music and the way they work with melodic structures
@@donatellaborciccibelloni5328 I was born in 1990 and I have no idea who Tyrone Powe is. I am sure it would be the same for all younger generations.
You guys are so funny! I love you!!
Much love from Italy❤️
Thank you!
The answer is:
LUCIO BATTISTI
As an Italian Mahmood has my heart, for him as an artist, for his music, for Soldi but also for the symbol he represented by performing on the Eurovision stage after the controversy over his victory in Sanremo. I agree that after returning in 2011 Italy has improved a lot, apart from "Non mi avete fatto niente " in 2018 and "La mia città" in 2014, those were really really bad. But I have to vote for Insieme 1990 for the message.
let's not forget that 2014 was I think the only year where there was an internal selection to choose the eurovision representative(emma), otherwise it would have been Arisa since she had won sanremo
Arida has a unique voice...... She's terrific
The 1992-93-97 edition were boycotted by the Italian broadcaster, in fact it is said that they had to win. Italy no longer participated because winning meant spending money on a program not followed by the Italian public.
Italians began to follow Eurovision more in 2015, before few knew of its existence. The Eurovision, still still, does not reach the levels of audience of Sanremo
After Italy didn't get a good result in 1967 with a Sanremo winning song (which could be related a problem between Modugno and the orchestra) they stopped sending the song that won the festival, they often (not always) sent the Sanremo winner but with another song (sometimes not even know in Italy), even 1990 song is not really known here despite Toto Cutugno being really famous (expecially for coming 2nd in all his sanremo attempts, like 7 times, also in 1990, while no one remembers he won it once), on the other side, after 2011 we have generally sent the sanremo winner of that year (2013, 2015, 2017-19), those are the ones that have done well with televote too (all in top10), same for 1997 song, the song that didn't win sanremo didn't get high positions with televote (2011 and 2012 were loved by juries) [2011-2013 singers were chosen by an internal jury during sanremo, probably 2013 choice being the same of the winner made rai change the ideas, anyway Emma, that came 2nd in 2011 and won in 2012, was picked internally in 2014 for other reasons, could be because she was the best selling woman in 2013 in Italy or because Sanremo 2014 was weak], anyway Emma didn't have any other song that she could have sung at esc soooo, she didn't even try to get a new song, overall italians interests over the contest has been low for most of its years, (with the most watched editions being the '91 one held in Rome only because it was shown live and not later at night as the other editions and all the ones after 2015, with the numbers of watchers being around 3-3,5 m compared to the 1-1,5 m of 2011-2014 editions)
I'm a straight female and I also think Romina Power is one of the most beautiful women that ever lived. She also happens to be American actor Thyrone Power's daughter. My dad had a huge crush on her and considered her his ideal woman, in terms of beauty.
The fact that changed music productions in Italy, maybe, is the Start of X-factor Italy, and The Voice of Italy, and others talent shows that brought so many new artists on stage. Artists who, before that, didn't have any producer.
Maneskin are from X Factor Italy, Emma is from a talent show called "Amici", Francesca Michielin is from X Factor Italy, Marco Mengoni is from X Factor Italy, Il Volo is from a Kid talent show on the first channel.. etc. etc. End After these talent shows, also the producers changed their style, artists and type of music.
Saluti a tutti, ciao!
You may not have liked Matia Bazar (in the 1979 offering), but they were a real avant-guard pop group, not just in Italy but internationally. Antonella Ruggiero (the lead singer) went on to have a brilliant, and very successful solo career. This is one of Matia Bazar's best known songs from the 80s: th-cam.com/video/GIjckqVaqEs/w-d-xo.html
Rip Mia Martini💔 in Italy was considered one of the best performers Rapsodia is not her best song in my opinion. Massimo Ranieri beautiful voice and good actor..I love Mahmood and Marco Mengoni Marco every song they are in my playlist❤️
"Minuetto" and "piccolo uomo" are my favourites.
@@blackmamba3538 Those are really amazing, especially "Minuetto". She sang so many other songs and each one was beautiful
Thank you from italy❤
thank youuu soo much from italy :))
The real problem in Italy is that honestly we are not capable to be coherent with our choices. Just see to the last picks in music: we are capable to pass from the classic melodramatic ballads (whicih is in fact very italian) to Mahmood, which mix italian to arabic sounds (not a easy choice in Italy) or to the Maneskin: a genderfluid young rock group very different from italian choices... but then we are not capable to insert these new bold ideas in our society or structures... it's like we are a little schizophrenic.
Completamente d’accordo
What do you think of Italy's 2021 offering? Maneskin: "Zitti e buoni": it's glam rock - couldn't be more different to the rest of their stuff from ESC!
hi guys
i'm an italian guy and you are lovely...
1958, for sure, is the best one and the most famous around the world
in 1962 yes, is dramatic, the song spoke about a sad love story....
in 1963 ahahahahaha
the singers in 1969,1970 and '71, they did the italian music history
franco battiato in 1985 and al bano in '86 wasgreat singers in70s and 80s
in 1997 is one of the best... incredible song...
in 2011, Raphael Gualazzi was wonderful, one of the best singers now
but my favorites songs are...
Diodato 2020
Mahmood 2019
Francesco Gabbani 2017
Il Volo 2015
Thank you guys for this amazing video...
at 22:37 i think it was normal, for sure, before, intalian people didin't live very well, maybe that's why dramatic music before
but the times change and the music as well
Thank you so much!!! 😍
Volare, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014. 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019 +1990 are my favorites!! Mahmood shoud've won !!
I am sad, that Diado is not coming in 2021 :(
I am Italian and I didn't know almost all the songs featuring in this video 😅
The fact is that I don't like the old Italian pop music and I didn't listen to it, I would only listen to American pop music.
Fortunately today the new generations of singers embraced the sounds from many parts of the world and I enjoy listening to Italian pop music as well: Mahmood for example, I love that guy, he is such a great musician. I can't wait to attend one of his concerts this year. I'm so happy he's so well known abroad, because finally people can see a modern and not stereotyped version of Italy.
1993. Enrico Ruggeri
He's an amazing singer!
His voice is unique...is my favourite Italian singer.
well, ESC entries comes from Sanremo Festival, and in the 80-90 period the festival was really down in audience. Therefore it was put a huge effort to make it more modern to appeal a younger public. Having a youger public voting, more modern songs won.
ESC entries from the 70s weren't from Sanremo anymore until 1997, and then the rule of the selection by Sanremo came back just in 2015. Italy and its music just changed over the years, that's it. But the real level of Italian music never changed out of Eurovision.
Top 3 :
1- Gente di mare
2 - Non ho leta
3- Rapsodia
Random thoughts: MIA MARTINI was one of a kind. Beautiful voice and soul. Such a terrible loss. MASSIMO RANIERI is a one man show, really! The gentleman can do everything. "Gente di Mare" is still my favourite, UMBERTO TOZZI has a wonderful voice. His "sparring partner", the singer you fancy is RAF (real name: Raffaele Riefoli) is a super nice guy and a good singer/songwriter. You should do a reaction to that performance 😉 MARCO MENGONI deserved better!! C'mon! The video of the brand new single "Venere e Marte" feat. Takagi & Ketra and Frah Quintale will be released tomorrow so check it out. FRANCESCO GABBANI has an interesting tone but not for everybody... DIODATO in the Arena, the beautiful Verona's amphitheatre ❤️
OMG!!!! Umberto Tozzi. I just adore him. "Ti amo" is one of all time favourite songs.
#3: Soldi
#2: Soldi
#1: *CLAP CLAP*
Sanremo was born in the 1951, is the oldest european music festival. I hope that you will do others reaction of italian music, or Sanremo songs, you will discover a lot of polyedric artist. So happy that you love our music, i loved your reaction ☺️ but.. I confess.. i'm still laughing for Joy's: "Reggae?!?! 😨 Is so tragic" in the Finland's video 🤣
Please notice that Iva Zanicchi representing Italy in1969 and Gianni Morandi in 1970 and Massimo ranieri in 1973, that all took part at sanremo festival this year and Gianni arrived 3rd!!!
Fun (well, I hope so anyway!) fact about Marco Mengoni and his origins: he was born in a small town about an hour's drive North of Rome, called Ronciglione. His family owns a bakery in the neighbouring town, called Sutri, where my parents also happen to live. It's a beautiful place, but not much ever happens there. Back when Marco won Sanremo, his parents had a massive celebration in their bakery and the whole town just partied. Someone then hung a homophobic note on the door of the bakery, insulting Marco, but it was taken down and the celebration resumed. And the atmosphere was amazing!
Oh wow, that's so cool! Love always wins!
@@carolinazafradesande1042 Marco Mengoni's "Guerriero" is a MASTERPIECE.
Thank you for enjoying!!
My favourite Italian ESC song is “Grande Amore” followed by “Non Mi Avete Fatto Niente”.
Yes, and the third one for me would be L'essenziale

Grazie 💖
Hi Guys , thank you for your reaction. I agree with you about our entry. We knew all along before that Marco Mengoni was winning this Sanremo because other songs level wasn't the same. Some were good like Madame, Rosa Chemical but nothing special. This Sanremo was a lot about politics, in Italy we have a far right government right now, I dont have nothing bad to say about Giorgia Meloni, but people has a bit of fear for her party background then we are doing much more progressist activities, TV shows are getting more educational about human rights, civil rights and so on. And like this was Sanremo 2023 , music wasn't great like last year but we saw in it a lot of really good monologs. If you want to see something special from Sanremo 2023 look for Rosa Chemical's Song
Ehi!
You are so lucky, you got an "Ehi!" from an italian😌
fiera di essere italianaa🙈
great job!
Betty Curtis from 1961 was actor Tony Curtis' daughter.
Great job as always, guys.
They were so great after coming back in 2011 that I love everyone of them. But honestly, I had such a connection with Occidentali's Karma (which I rooted to win that year), so that HAD to be first, then close behind Soldi (which I feel SHOULD'VE beat Arcade, even though I rooted for Keiino), and then Volare, because it is TIMELESS. But got I would do unspeakable things with Marco Mengoni TBH.
Betty Curtis' father, Ezio Corti, was italian. She had nothing to do with Tony Curtis
@@donatellaborciccibelloni5328 you're so right i am SO sorry. I KNOW there's a daughter of an American actor in the competition and I forget who know. Maybe from France?
NO DUMB ME it's Romona Power that's the daughter of Tyrone Power. I forgot because her relationship with Al Bano was kind of creepy to me
@@twostepcub well consider that Albano at the time of their engagement was far more popular, in italy and abroad, than romina that was only "the daughter of"... probably she was the one who gained most from that marriage also considering the singing talent of Al Bano.. :)))
My top 5 is:
1. 1987
2. 2015
3. 1997
4. 2019
5. 1964
Before watching, Italy 1997 for me :) Jalisse - Fiumi di parole.
After watching these in sequence so far, I miss the live orchestra and wish they would bring it back.
2015 is a close second.
We have not won since 1990, since the time of toto cutugno "solo noi"
My favourite country in eurovision! 1964 winner is sang in our family for decades.
Diodato was the best for me!
a kiss from Italy !
Many kisses back to you! 😘
I totally agree with Toy☺️ same feelings😍
My top 5 from Italy:
1. 1960
2. 1991
3. 1983

5. 2013
My Best Italian Production is 1990 (Insieme)
Cant wait to see you react to this year’s entry! Check out Maneskin - Zitti e buoni, Sanremo 2021
Soldi and occidentalis karma are basically joint first for me I love them both so much!! I’m stuck 😂 also how come you didn’t react to Hungary?
Hungary is not participating in Eurovision 2021. Once we are done, we might do all the countries that left the competition ... (depends how much energy we will have left ... ;-) )
@@ToyAndGoy ohhh sorry I didn’t realise but that make sense
Ciao! 🙂 As I mentioned yesterday the official video for "Venere e Marte" Takagi & Ketra feat. Marco Mengoni, Frah Quintale has been released this afternoon. Give it a listen/watch if you're interested. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/BfDsoB0jhsY/w-d-xo.html Hopefully is available abroad too.

1997 best song ever from italy ,for me best sont ever in euro song ,is win at san remo and i love your reacton ,so fun,cheers
The rumour mill, particularly during the early years of the Internet, threw lots of theories about Italy's absence to the wall, and some of those rumours have stuck.
It is agreed by pretty much everybody that RAI simply got bored of Eurovision after 1993, particularly because with the expansion into Eastern Europe, they felt Italy's influence was fading and it was a case of "taking their ball home." They had won as recently as 1990 was it wasn't just a case of them feeling grumpy about a run of bad results.
The 1997 rumour is a bit more layered. RAI clearly thought that Jalisse could win. But they would have had to have been agreed as entrant long before San Remo, so the timeline is a bit borked. In any case, they were royally p-d off about not winning, and was so p-d off that they simply did a Luxembourg and vowed never to return. It's never been fully understood why Jalisse suddenly turned up with the kind of mid-tempo song out of the blue, or why Italy took it so badly when they lost, They had one more year of orchestra-backed Eurovision, they could have taken San Remo 1998 to Birminham without losing face
The rest after 2011 of course is history. Oh, except for one last rumour/theory. Fans all agree that 1991 was a hosting disaster. So what if the EBU make sure that they never host again? Couple of 2nds and 3rd places make it look oh so close and maybe next year. But the truth? EBU deliberately nobble the voting to stop RAI ever hosting again. It's a theory worth exploring.
Perle ai porci.
For me the best were "Volare" and "Non ho l'età". These are beyond compare, worldwide hits in their own right.
My favourite is Il Volo. They should've won in 2015.
Romina Power the girl you said is pretty is Tyrone Power's daughter
Hiiii can you react at almeno tu nell’universo di mia Martini ?!? Ps FANTASTIC
When you said that all italian songs in eurovision sounds the same or are at least similar you're actually right, that's because every italian song that goes to eurovision it the winning song from Sanremo's festival and it's extremely difficult to have something new and different that comes from that event, apart from soldi from Mahmood.
Nice video guys!
Oh, how I wish I could speak this beautyful language!!!
Soldi ❤ Mahmood
1984 ...Battiato and Alice , the best💕
Ho riso tantissimo 😂 grazie ragazzi ❤️
Non ho l' età. And she was 16 at the time...
We left bècause even if we had wonderful songs, we never won... and it sounds unfair.
HOW COULD "VOLARE" NOT WIN? THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it's also because in Italy esc is not so followed by people.....
My favourite is Soldi
My daughter was so excited to see Mahxmood at Wembley Arena, but the bloody virus..! Where it will happened nobody knows😿😿😿
Nel blu dipinto di blu, 3th. Come on past eurovision...
Doesn't Bobby Solo sound like Elvis if Elvis spoke Italian.
semplicemente san remo è sempre stata un trasmissione per famiglie e nel passato anche un po bacchetona, nel senso che se andavi un po fuori dai canoni o non ci arrivavi o se ci arrivavi eri punito per la stravaganza. Porto l'esempio di vasco rossi uno dei rocker oggi piu amati d'italia in sette partecipazioni è sempre arrivato fra gli ultimi. Una delle sue canzoni piu amate di sempre si classifico ultima "Vado al massimo". Oggi la società è piu evoluta ed aperta e la classifica di san remo ed i pezzi che arrivano la rispecchiano. Detto ciò nei pezzi del passato ci sono canzoni iconiche dell'italia una fra tutte "dio come ti amo" di modugno . Traducetela è bellissima. Anche "nel blu dipinto di blu" "non ho l'età" "gente di mare". Mentre altre che amate tipo i jalisse "fiumi di parole" o Insieme di cotugno che ha vinto , in Italia non le ama nessuno.
Un'altra cosa interessante da notare è che la musica veramente famosa degli anni 70/80 è altra, intendo quella che sentiamo e cantiamo ancora oggi. Gli anni 70/80 sono gli anni di Guccini, De Gregori, Dè Andre ma nessuno di loro ha mai sfondato a san remo, un po' perchè il ritmo delle canzoni è un po' inadatto ma anche perchè erano troppo politiche (Guccini in particolare). La musica che è finita all'eurovision in quegli anni famosa in italia, ma non sono cose che ancora ascoltiamo, perchè era musica dei suoi tempi e ora suona un po' antica.
Maybe you fidnt reslize that s about sixty years ago,hence a bit of drama.And aniways we are different from anglosaxons (thank god).
Apparently you don't follow Italian Top 100. Because if you do, you would find Fedez with Achille Lauro as number 1. You also have AK 7even, Rocco Hunt, Fred De Palma, J-AX. My absolute favourite recently is Ghali. Beyond Italy, does anybody know these. NO. My point, Italy has lost world appeal it had in the good old days and the guaranteed world hits it enjoyed.
Even though Eurovision is an Italian invention, Italians learned of its existence around 2015, before that it wasn't even broadcast on TV. Italy did not participate from 1998 to 2010 due to total disinterest. In Italy we have the San Remo Festival, from which the Eurovison derives, for us only that is important.
