Italy ITALY 2015 - Il Volo - Grande amore

[i anixi]

How could so many people be corruptible and how could anyone manage to do it? What for, for that matter? I'm sure Sweden was in no hurry to win again. If they were, they didn't need to do it nastily, their song was big enough to do it alone.

I for once am very happy for the jury's existence. Italy's song was a turgid piece of latino cheese, populist to the bone. I have no doubt the juries smelled it. It was also said by some watching the TV feed that Il Volo were somehow out of tune during the jury's rehearsal. Maybe juries have penalised them for that as well.
Furthermore, juries can not be expected to vote in the same line as the public all the time. For one thing, they have no idea what the public's choice will be, nobody has, for certain.

Anyways, Sweden is a most deserving winner, and a very good one at that, and it won according to all the current rules agreed by all beforehand.

Lol, Sweden blow Italy out of water in the charts. In itunes Italy is #1 in only one country! but Sweden is #1 in 20 countries already. Good luck Il Volo to get platinum and gold singles. They really need it.

lol who really do cares about itunes?

I downloaded this song (as well as Swedish one) in February yet, and listen in on player, comp etc. without any itunes

itunes auditory - 12-25 years, Italian song was loved by..... 12-100, that's a success

Yes, and out of tune on a opera is really bad... It's so obvious!! Also remember they didn't even won the jury voting in San Remo.. It's clearly the juries have issues with Il Volo and their song.

Many artists I think. They want to sell their music. But not Il Volo I think.

Just a second thought, Italy's victory would be epical because the song was not English, at all. However, I am not really into this song. In fact, Grande amore is the first Italian entry I don't like, since 2011. So I am -for the first time- glad with juries, this year. But I know it is only one time thing. Never gonna happen again.

Juries suck.

 

[Franzilein]

Just found out that my country gave them 12 points in the televoting... and the jury gave them zero. Frustration level rises again... T()

They toured the U.S., Latin America and most of Europe last year

After their tour of Italy their planning on returning to the U.S. and Latin America to promote their upcoming album they've been working on.

The only person who thinks their flops is SuperGirl

Why there is no justice in Asia/South Korea, I wanna visit their concert at least once. Even their albums are released here as well!

Anyway so great to see these young guys trying hard to export Italian pop-opera genre in Europe and America.

Fanboys on the internet are thrilled Italy lost because they refused to host JESC

For sure, I knew it!!! For this reason I said to they have actually a great chance to win the Eurovision 2016!!!

The boys with their press award

just ignore the other guy in the picture if you can

In the Televoting -
Italy received 14 (!) TWELVE points; 7 TEN points; 6 EIGHT points; 7 SEVEN points; 3 SIX points and 1 FIVE points from Ireland. - those all of the countries!

Sweden received 3 TWELVE points (from NOR, DNK and Australia); 5 TENS - which three of those countries gave the DOUZ PUA to ITALY and the other two are FIN and Estonia; 6 EIGHT points - which five of those countries gave more points to ITALY and the sixth is the UK; the rest points os Sweden are ranking from 7 to 2 - where every country of those gave more points to Italy except for Latvia and Ireland.

The combined results just smells wrong.

ITALY is the real winner for me.

Wow why so much hate?

Il Volo is a successful Italian group. Mans is a successful Swedish singer. He won the juries they won televoting. Where is the problem? If people want to cheer for Italy they will do it. If people want to cheer for Sweden they will do it. And same goes and to the fact that same people may dislike one of this two songs or both actually. But the problem is (without have look the Swedish thread I want to make this clear) some Swedish coming here and brag around about their won. Ok guys you won congrats but this doesn't mean that we all have to like your song. I don't think Sweden is the total god of Eurovision that no one can tell anything about them. Peace and unity and we are all the same yes? Half of the song were talking about peace and equality right? But of course that goes and to any Italian who makes bad comments about Sweden's victory, but personally I haven't see any. And I really want to point out that this doesn't go to all Swedish or Italians I have seen who are making these comments it doesn't go to anyone.

So please stop this fight it's pointless. This forum is to express our opinion even if you like it or not. And I have seen a plenty of comments that I don't like and although I don't deny it in the past I was going and answer them, now I am just passing them by cause you know we can't all have the same opinion

Il Volo is in european music charts from Sanremo, I don't know exactly how many copy they sold, and is still in more than 30 country only on iTunes. And, most important, the song is in italian, there is nothing else to add.
And there is no need to say bulls*it to justify the big shame on the jury results. All the world saw what happened. In Italy there is some rumors but we take ease on ESC, we know what genre of song win every year. Il Volo brought Music.

I'm really sad with the result of Spain and France too, they didn't deserve 21 and 25. Expect some Big withdrawal.

ps: Supergirl, I know that you like your country song, but be honest with yourself at least, on roles reversed what would you have said? Be honest
