Italy ITALY 2022 - Mahmood and Blanco - Brividi

[escYOUnited]

​

Ho sognato di volare con te
Su una bici di diamanti
Mi hai detto: "Sei cambiato, non vedo
Più la luce nei tuoi occhi"

La tua paura cos'è?
Un mare dove non tocchi mai
Anche se il sesso non è
La via di fuga dal fondo

Dai, non scappare da qui
Non lasciarmi così
Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi

Tu, che mi svegli il mattino
Tu, che sporchi il letto di vino
Tu, che mi mordi la pelle
Con i tuoi occhi da vipera

E tu, sei il contrario di un angelo
E tu, sei come un pugile all'angolo
E tu scappi da qui, mi lasci così

Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi

Dimmi che non ho ragione
E vivo dentro una prigione
E provo a restarti vicino
Ma scusa se poi mando tutto a puttane e

Non so dirti ciò che provo, è un mio limite
Per un "ti amo" ho mischiato droghe e lacrime
Questo veleno che ci sputiamo ogni giorno
Io non lo voglio più addosso

Lo vedi, sono qui
Su una bici di diamanti, uno fra tanti
Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi​

He did, from what I can find online he acted in a webseries released in early 2020, but hasn't released new music since 2018.

Whatever Italy decides to do, it will be amazing. They haven't disappointed with their entries since their comeback, they will not disappoint by hosting. So excited what they will have in store for us next year

EDIT: Also huge question mark about the conversation a few pages prior. If I understood right, some people think that ballads are old and outdated, and upbeat songs are modern? This is wrong on so many levels, I can't even

I completly agree with you.
Its a question of quality.
Adele sings mostly ballads but they are so modern. Arcade is 100 % ballad but it's not outdated at all.
This year ballad haters could be happy.
We had only two ballads in the final, maybe three unless we consider Karma an uptempo ballad and much more upbeat songs

Thanks for the nice words, Franzilein You are one of the members of EscYOUnited who thinks in a calibrated way and, if he doesn't prefer a song, he doesn't spit hate.

Now I want to make some considerations regarding 2022. I will not speak Italian but I will reason objectively. I believe that Italy will organize a sensational ESC and I am sure that our song in the competition will be very competitive. The rumors circulating in this forum that "the host country will surely fail" are just a baseless legend. Let's see the rankings of each host country from 2000 to 2021 :

2000 = Sweden 7th (Top 10)
2001 = Denmark 2nd (podium! Here the host country risked winning)
2002 = Estonia 3rd (another podium for the host nation)
2003 = Latvia 24th
2004 = Turkey 4th (EscTurkey have you seen? )
2005 = Ukraine 19th
2006 = Greece 9th (second Top 10)
2007 = Finland 17th
2008 = Serbia 6th (third Top 10)
2009 = Russia 11th (good course at the ESC - for me the enough is reached in 13th position)
2010 = Norway 20th
2011 = Germany 10th (4th Top 10)
2012 = Azerbaijan 4th (5th Top 10)
2013 = Sweden 14th (here Sweden was a little below expectations but the position is not bad)
2014 = Denmark 9th (6th Top 10)
2015 = Austria 26th
2016 = Sweden 5th (7th Top 10)
2017 = Ukraine 24th
2018 = Israel 23rd
2019 = Portugal 26th
2021 = Netherlands 23rd

So ... let's recap ... 2 podiums, 7 Top 10 (by Top 10 I mean those who did not reach the podium) and 12 positive positions (I also added the 14th place of Sweden). The bad positions and the disasters are a total of 9. Can you explain to me why the legend of the "failure of the host country" was born?

Sweden, for example, has shown that its "musical method" has been performing. If the musical landscape is flourishing it is difficult for this to fail (then it can happen that once or twice to slip). Italy (I want to speak after his return) has shown that they have a very good selection. I already feel on my skin the vibrations of terror of the haters in knowing that Italy will reach the Top 10, the podium or risk winning again. If this happens ... EscTurkey and DenizESC will tear all their hair. They will risk being known as "Yul Brynner's secret children"

Instead, with regard to (old) ballads and (modern) catchy songs, I agree with Franzilein. We start from the assumption that everything modern has its roots in the past (nothing is ever totally new - sensational innovations have happened a few times in history and have been fundamental vines for cultural development, for the advent of a "New Era") .

Many catchy songs of 2021 that many have praised have winked at the past more than you think. It is useless for you to hit the ballads hard to pass "old" Italy because it shows ignorance or bad faith. This year then the speech does not really exist: Italy has brought a Rock and ... you (some haters) have idolized Gjon's Tears and Pravi. However, I think that if we had brought the song from France and Switzerland, the comments would have been very harsh : like what happened for Diodato's "Fai Rumore" I'm sorry "Try again - you'll be luckier!"

Exactly. A ballad is first and foremost simply a song category. They can be dated or modern just as much as a dance / upbeat song – or was Denmark this year modern just because it had roughly 50 more beats per minute than Slovenia's entry? I'll say it again and again, some people use the weirdest and most confusing justifications to express their antipathies, it's such a toxic way of handling music

No, what happened?????

P.S. Btw spread the lines wider, you are constantly attacking the middle of the pitch from the left, whereas Terim pulled a classic Italian / Milan trick on you and had parked a bus in that exact middle of the pitch.

It was a very colorful ceremony, there were fireworks, a beautiful choreography, the orchestra played, Bocelli sang and presented Totti and Nesta.

P.S .: EscTurkey maybe paid the referee. We were denied a penalty and were punished with an absent offside

Very true, I think the problem is that the ballads that often end up in ESC aren't really modern or fresh-thinking but some of the more clichéd stuff one can come up with (and I guess with upbeat stuff it's easier to give it a pass because it's more for the fun, wheres with ballads it should be, at least on paper, feel a bit more closer and "real" which those clichéd ballads don't manage to do).

I think this is the reason why alot of people dread Eurovision ballads, but of course ballads as a genre doesn't mean that they can't be modern or different, it's just that they happen not to be too often in the ESC context.

That was pure class. A masterpiece opera aria, an excellent singer, many colorful fireworks, without being too much . Simple, effective and classy it's what we'll need next year.

I saw Totti and Nesta (also Nesta for the 1st time without Stam next to him to spoil the moment) and that was enough for me.
