Re: ITALY 2011 - Raphael Gualazzi - Follia d'amore

Haha Italian television is hilarious!

I sometimes watch Italian TV just to have a laugh actually (no offense to Italians in here).

If Italians think they are "too good" for Eurovision, they should critically watch some of their own entertainment shows :lol:
I'm completelly agree with you but i think that italian tv isn't soo bas as you say....

Follia d'amore is a good song, maibe not good for eurovision, but I think that the way to MAY is long....

I was so excited to hear Italian entry and now I'm shocked :shock: This is awful for me and too boring. Also, I don't like jazz. So sad :(

I think jazz is great! This song is way better than many others so far. Italy didn't let me down at all. 8 points.

nej nej nej.... italians have any idea about Eurovision :°D

I'm talking about ESC to many friends of mine, and they seems to appreciate it... wait and see :)


However... Yes, we've many horrible shows in our tv -_-'', overall due to Mediaset... and RAI follow them.... :-/


Bwah, I'm really sad about our return with this act... but... I'll be able to vote xdance (and probably I will vote for your country too, Sweden never disappointed me, I'm sure you'll bring a really strong act, as usual)

Ditto, I was really looking forward for a breath taking song, but I got disappointed :(

This just makes me feel like Italy isn't too keen on Eurovision.

:shock: Courageous choice from Italy - absolutely not what I expected for esc 2011, but somehow I like this entry for being so...different (or:stubborn:p).
8 nostalgic pts.

Re: ITALY 2011 - Raphael Gualazzi - Follia d'amore

I like jazz, too, but not this song...it should be much much better jazz. I like how the song starts and piano...but after 1-2 minutes it doesn't keep my attention, ending is really weak, imo. Maybe if they rework it, it can be better. I don't think Italy isn't interested in the ESC (more then for example other countries), Italians just sent what they choose at SanRemo. I agree with someone who wrote that they should have a separate show for choosing ESC entry.
Anyway, I think it's the best song chosen this weekend:?, I'd be nice and give it 6p for now.

Big disappointment. Good for them to be in the final anyway.

Re: ITALY 2011 - Raphael Gualazzi - Follia d'amore

Wellcome back on ECS, Italy!

Song is ok, but not in my favourite. I hear it just once, so I`ll give it chance with listening again... 5p (for now)

It`s not a eurovision cliche song, I`m little borred with ballads and tipical dance songs - so bravo for jazz!

I don't understand why so many people dislike this song! It's really something different with quality, that will do well in Eurovision, because a lot of people are happy about the return of Italy! Until now, it is among my 3 favourites! Buona fortuna, Italia!

I don't like jazz so I don't like this. Strikes me as a safe entry - won't win (I'd be very surprised) but will pick up enough points to avoid disgrace. I'm sure some people will think it's sophisticated but I think it's jazz by numbers.
