OMGGGGGGGGGGGGG


MY FAV OF THIS YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRR!!!!

I'M FANGIRLING SO HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD

MASTERPIECE! And still there are people who dares to say that this is a joke entry! BAH!

This is one of the best italian songs i've ever heard in my entire life, and this is already a strong contender for the win in Kyiv (Yes, there are few songs selected but i doubt that there will be more as good as this one)

Someone needs some MORE fanservice

for now, I don't really know what to think of it, but i really like it. but it might annoy me in the future

One of the best songs in ESC ever. And timing; PERFECT! After the horrible choices from Germany and Spain this masterpiece comes to make you forget everything bad that happens to youu Amazing entry Italy, I really think you will stay in my Top 10 for a long time!!

First of all i don't get that monkey and it's rather disturbing me than anything else.


The song definitely gets the from me (and i guess new second in my top). The video makes me really happy too. I just heard it yesterday evening, but wasn't prepared at all.


At least 1 of my countries sends always amazing stuff and can do well in Esc.

The song got a from me when I made the thread,
but tbh, this just deserves a .
Thank you Italy for actually saving the saturday with good entry (compared to Manel's mess of a song).
Everytime I listen to this, I keep cracking a damn smile. It's so damn catchy and modern, and his voice is just amazing.
and that monkey just makes the entire song amazing.
I wouldn't be surprised if this stays in my top 10 for a long time

fabbi Seems like one of your two countries will win ESC this year.

I already almost died in 2014 when we qualified. Not sure how I'd react at an actual win.

I wanted to insert a gif but didn't found a fitting one

Best Italian entry in ESC so far.

I highly disagree there tbh.

You're lucky, right now, I only have a top 1 (UK).

SPOILER: Click to show

Please Karise Eden for Australia...  

You mean you only like Uk so far right?  Well, there are still many songs to be revealed, don't lose hope

So far I like Belarus and absolutely love Italy, France and Finland <333

My opinion:
: she has a common default for Albanese singers: she pushes her voice above her limits. She would need an intense operatic training but she hasn't enough time for it before the show.
: pre-epic song. It's good but it needs a little more (I don't know what exactly, perhaps a folk choreography) to become epic.
: this song could be OK, but is clearly made for a soprano voice, a mezzo soprano one hasn't enough intensity. Give this song to Tarja Turunen and you'll see the difference.
: my first reaction when I listened to it was : "Pretty voice, creepy song". And when I listened to "Ivre" (on the same Youtube channel) I wanted to scream because that song would have been awsome.
: a good song but not the perfect one for her diva voice. Listen to "Mravaljamier" and you'll see what I mean.
: the voice lacks of everything: soul, power, vocal range...
: I don't like at all, and the worst is that it could actually do well at Eurovision. There was no very good song at Sanremo this year but this one, I can't definitely support it.
: nothing to save.
: the song is too repetitive and her voice doesn't sound like a professional singer.
: the song has a good potential, but the instrumental needs to be changed (with a classic orchestra or adding a good violin solist)
