Lucio Dalla died today because of heart attack. Only in a 2 weeks after Sanremo performance.

I don't think this is true! Italians are too proud for their language to sing in English!

One could say the same about other countries aswell, but they still send English? I'm not surprised, everyone are selling out these days.

At least, she can sing half in English and half in Italian. At least. Although this will be very bad, I want her to sing fully in Italian!

Agree! 100% Italian thank u!

I wasn't a major fan of Gualazzi's entry, however I kinda enjoyed the Italian bits, didn't really care for the English bits.

Did they make it official, is it "Per Sempre" 100% ?
I'm still hoping for L'Amore E'Feimmina.

This is from Ogae Italy's blog:
http://ogaeitaly.blogspot.com/2012/03/ogae-italy-e-nina-zilli-incontro-allo.html

Nina si è mostrata entusiasta e onorata di rappresentare l'Italia all'ESC, e ha dichiarato che la canzone che verrà presentata sarà certamente "Per sempre", alla cui versione inglese, o, più probabilmente, bilignue, si sta già lavorando.

Nina is thrilled and honored to represent Italy at ESC, and said that the song will certainly be "Per sempre" in its english or, more likely, bilingual version, which they are already working on.

Re: ITALY 2012 - Nina Zilli - Per sempre

Some songs don't suit an English translation. Mundu Eftir Mer and Suus ought to stay in their native tongue and I can't imagine Woki Mit Deim Popo in English.

Per Sempre isn't one of these. I think English could suit it quite well, although I'd prefer bilingual.

Yes I agree with this. If Italy selected Emma then he song should have stayed Italian. But I think singing this in English could be a stroke of brilliance. The only question is how much of each language is mentioned.

My guess*, and using as reference the video on top of the page, is that it will be in italian language from start to 2:33 and in english after that point.


[*] My guess comes from the fact that this is the way she dealt with the only other bilingual song she has sung so far.
