I have not being able to listen to any of this year's contestants. I do hope that they will be better than the 2008 ones. Hubby always buys the CD and the last was a big disappointment. I think that we played it only once....

So far these three would get my vote from the first 25 or so that I've watched to date;
[B][I]No2 Principe by Malamonroe.[/I][/B]
[B][I]No8 Per Un Attimo by Chiara Luppi.[/I][/B]
[B][I]No20 Come Una Giocca By Alessandra D'Angelo[/I][/B].
Quite a few more to listen to yet, but I can already see a certain bias developing. [IMG]http://www.italiauncovered.co.uk/forums/images/ibulletin/smilies/wink.gif[/IMG]
Place your bets.

Not so much as a centesimo JC. :no: Especially seeing as how I had the UK down to win the 2008 Eurovision song contest. :reallyembarrassed:

My Monopoly money is on The Sunny Boys 'Respirando il mare'.:twitcy:
And my REAL money is on Giovani Giusti 'Passogigante'. But, I am only 25% of the way (impressive eh?) through the list.
Triacorda , tell me she is not wearing popsocks?!!?

Yup, Gaetano is down to numer 2 as I type. Growing on me this one.
Is Malamonroe's Prince working at the AutoGrill?

We saw some of this festival on TV at the Pizzeria..........so painful to listen to people who can't sing and that are even worse to watch, so ate fast and left!!! Must be an acquired taste?

For me there will only ever be one "La Rossa".

Hi really like this year Sanremo's opening!
That let people know about famous artists of the Italian song unknown abroad and brushes up the Canzone Italiana's story.
I confess I totally disagree with the Big's winner..According to me, Marco Carta is an italian tv product..not a real singer..
Anyway I like very much the Giovani's winner - Arisa. A singer with a strong personality who is attracting media and public attention.
Her official video is not available at the moment :nah:, so I'll post this one to make you listen to her great song!
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ppf4dmdDSA&feature=related"]Arisa - Sincerità[/ame]
I personally like her song and text.Here you are:
[B]Sincerità[/B]:smile:
Adesso è tutto così semplice
Con te che sei l’unico complice
Di questa storia magica
Sincerità
Un elemento imprescindibile
Per una relazione stabile
Che punti all’eternità
Adesso è un rapporto davvero
Ma siamo partiti da zero
All’inizio era poca ragione
Nel vortice della passione
E fare e rifare l’amore
Per ore, per ore, per ore
Aver poche cose da dirsi
Paura ed a volte pentirsi
Ed io coi miei sbalzi d’umore
E tu con le solite storie
Lasciarsi ogni due settimane
Bugie per non farmi soffrire
Ma a volte era meglio morire
Sincerità
Adesso è tutto così semplice
Con te che sei l’unico complice
Di questa storia magica
Sincerità
Un elemento imprescindibile
Per una relazione stabile
Che punti all’eternità
Adesso sembriamo due amici
Adesso noi siamo felici
Si litiga quello è normale
Ma poi si fa sempre l’amore
Parlando di tutto e di tutti
Facciamo duemila progetti
Tu a volte ritorni bambino
Ti stringo e ti tengo vicino
Sincerità
Scoprire tutti i lati deboli
Avere sogni come stimoli
Puntando all’eternità
Adesso tu sei mio
E ti appartengo anch’io
E mano ella mano dove andiamo si vedrà
Il sogno va da se, regina io e tu re
Di questa storia sempre a lieto fine
Sincerità
Adesso è tutto così semplice
Con te che sei l’unico complice
Di questa storia magica
Sincerità
Un elemento imprescindibile
Per una relazione stabile
Che punti all’eternità…
[quote=juliancoll;108540] This is the current list and it will be whittled down to about 15 (?) by the time the show airs. Public voting costs 0.75 euro for those in Italy and so inclined. Enjoy. :smile:

JC thanks for the insight - do you know does a panel of experts get the list down to 15 or is that part of the public vote?
PS did you ask anyone for a fig roll while you were backstage?:winki:
