It's easy to think the ratings will improve this year thanks to Il Volo nonetheless, I guess people will be curious to see how they'll fare.

I'm not so hopeful 'cause we had high expectations for 2013 with Marco Mengoni (everytime he is special guest in a tv programme there is an increase in the ratings) and Emma Marrone too (but we knew that she share the same audience with Amici so we expected a bad result 'cause many fans of her preferred to watch Amici and not Eurovision -.-) but we didn't reach at least 2 millions viewers (an episode of a TV series like "Castle" reachs easily that result on Saturday night on Rai 2)

Don't know what to think this year 'cause the italian fanbase of Il Volo is not so big and I actually think that on Saturday 23rd May Rai 1 will broadcast a reply of one of the most succesfull italian fictions like "Don Matteo" or "Che Dio ci aiuti" who reach millions and millions of viewers although are only replies!!! For example, last friday a reply of "Il Commissario Montalbano" has been the most watched programme with 4.615.000 viewers.

Here's the official video of the new single by Il Volo: Canzone per te.


P.S. The song is a cover of the winning song of Sanremo 1968 sang by Sergio Endrigo who represented Italy at the Eurovision the same year but with another song, Marianne (10th place).

A tribute to Austria from the old Italian TV for Eurovision 2015:


In this video you will not find Conchita Wurst!

Semi-finals broadcaster RAI4 announced on Facebook that the show "Eurovision Song Story" (it will be aired the day before the 1st Semi-Final) is self-produced by RAI. So, it won't be the 60th anniversary show, but something new!

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum, and of course my first post here goes to this thread, I want this to win, a real masterpiece from Italy, three talented and charismatic guys, They have an incredibly powerful voices and I'm pretty sure they'll give us in Vienna a faultless live performance. Furthermore, I have to confess that Italian is my favourite language, Nina Zilli should have sung in 2012 her song in Italian. :(
I hope they defeat Mans and his trifling song.
12 points from Slovakia, in bocca al lupo, ci vediamo il prossimo anno in Roma oppure Milano. (Probably this is misspelled, correct me if I made ​​a mistake)

Your italian is quite perfect my friend! Only a little little mistake: it's better to say/write "il prossimo anno a Roma" and not "in Roma".

Hope to see Slovakia back in the Eurovision soon xrose

Oh! Thank you mate! Prepositions use to be my weak point in every language I try to learn :oops:
Forgive me for my little mistake, I'll improve as much as I can, this summer I have scheduled a trip to Milan and I would like to speak there just in Italian, if I get nervous or I stay blank in some situations I will speak in English but I prefer to avoid it. xD

xthank
I hope so too! And as I've said before, I hope this year to see Conchita Wurst screaming: And the winner of Eurovision Song Contest 2015 is:
:it::it::it::it::it::it:

Well, maybe i am the first to say it,
but i dont trust one of these three guys.
I am talking for Ignazio.
His voice isn't that powerful. But this would not be a problem.
The problem is that the part he sings in chorus needs a powerful voice to deliver directly the melody to the viewers.
And Ignazio can not do it even in studio.

Sad to say that but Italians too has problems with italian language and definitely more important than your little mistake with a preposition, so don't worry!

Wow, I missed this one! Ignazio's voice is powerful and clear. During a concert his mic failed but his voice could be heard over the orchestra! I would not say his voice is not powerful.

Il Volo will perform on May 17 at the Vienna Staatsoper!

Also Cyprus, Hunghary, Norwey, Georgia and Irland
and obviously Conchita Wurst

Is this a last minute addition to their schedule? I didn't think they were doing any ESC promo performances :?

Not that I'm complaining ;)
