Terrible staging. Really completely destroys the mood of the song... or at least the one I was perceiving. Obviously I completely misunderstood the song if that staging is supposed to represent it.

It reminds me of a Christmas tree. It looks really odd.

Ciao ragazzi xwave here's come my useless post of the night:

Just wanted to say that Francesca was -again- super cute and beautiful tonight. xheart I think I died three times in 45 seconds xheat
I wish her good luck, she has the opportunity to do well. :)

Francesca is a classical Italian beauty. She is really stunning. If I werent gay, I'd probably wanted marry her :)

Why so much garden for this song? Come on, it doesn't need it. Reminds me to Hungary last year.

Is it a coincidence or not? Ahaha
Pretty funny.

I think that SVT have some sense of humor. :)
Is it good, is it bad?
It's in the middle of 1st half, so it could have been better just as worse.
It's between two "weak" entries (according to the odds) and that's a plus.
But I fear that Francesca's colourful garden will be totally forgotten after the much later Zoe's pathway.
We must hope that Francesca's own singing prowess is so powerful to survive after Australia, Serbia, Ukraine, Austria and Armenia in the memory of televoters. It's a long way to go...
Will they still remember our sweet Peach after 20 songs?

The only other time that Italy was in the 1st half was in 2012 with Nina Zilli (at spot 10) and we ended 9th, so there is hope for another top10 after all. xcrossed

Other entries singing at 6, and how they ended on the scoreboard:
2015: Armenia -> 16th
2014: Romania -> 12th
2013: Belgium -> 12th
2012: Russia -> 2nd
2011: Ireland -> 8th

What I really hope in final for Francesca is a lot of close ups ;)

In MO, If a song is good will stuck to your mind, if it came first, middle or last doesn't count too much.

Raphael was too. And it was an unconceivable joy.

I am so glad to see that you, Tuorem, are as excited about this song and girl as I am :) Pure gem in my opinion. There is nothing to dislike about this entry. As I said, in my opinion, whether it will be Rome, Paris, or Moscow next year, I'd be happy to the same degree (without separation) for each of them. Good luck to all of them :)

An adorable chat/interview with Escxtra: xheart


The look from the lady behind her when she sings "Loin d'ici" at 3:46! xrofl


Now: dress rehearsal at 2:30pm, press conference at 5:50pm and jury final tonight. xcrossed

A small incident occurred during the dress rehearsal: Francesca didn't hear through her earpiece, so she had to stop the performance. A tecnician went on stage to help her and then she could start.

This song has really grown on me, and I like the unusual but simple staging - it fits the song really well, for some reason :D Italy needn't worry about this, she is the female Marco :p

Final Verdict
:it:
10 points
Position I want: 10th
Position I think: 8th
