Come on, 2019 was 5 years ago already. Some preparties have happened since then. Even Mahmood and BLANCO couldn’t make it to the rehearsals because of the busy schedule of the second. Sometimes better think twice before speaking or you could come across as a rude person.
Clearly it’s the first time in a long time Italy is sending a non-established artist, which makes it easier for them (in terms of schedule), to take part in these events.
If it were another scenario, this would easily be in the top 5 at Eurovision.
I literally have no idea whether this will make it to the finals or not, but in case it does, I can really see the juries sinking this in the final show.
To be honest, I would have preferred Israel to step out this...
