Italy ITALY 2022 - Mahmood and Blanco - Brividi

[escYOUnited]

​

Ho sognato di volare con te
Su una bici di diamanti
Mi hai detto: "Sei cambiato, non vedo
Più la luce nei tuoi occhi"

La tua paura cos'è?
Un mare dove non tocchi mai
Anche se il sesso non è
La via di fuga dal fondo

Dai, non scappare da qui
Non lasciarmi così
Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi

Tu, che mi svegli il mattino
Tu, che sporchi il letto di vino
Tu, che mi mordi la pelle
Con i tuoi occhi da vipera

E tu, sei il contrario di un angelo
E tu, sei come un pugile all'angolo
E tu scappi da qui, mi lasci così

Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi

Dimmi che non ho ragione
E vivo dentro una prigione
E provo a restarti vicino
Ma scusa se poi mando tutto a puttane e

Non so dirti ciò che provo, è un mio limite
Per un "ti amo" ho mischiato droghe e lacrime
Questo veleno che ci sputiamo ogni giorno
Io non lo voglio più addosso

Lo vedi, sono qui
Su una bici di diamanti, uno fra tanti
Nudo con i brividi
A volte non so esprimermi

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E ti vorrei rubare un cielo di perle
E pagherei per andar via
Accetterei anche una bugia

E ti vorrei amare, ma sbaglio sempre
E mi vengono i brividi, brividi, brividi​

So, any actor and singer who acts or sings something that he has not experienced or that does not belong to him emotionally would be a fake. It is called interpretation and not falsehood.

Mahmood and Blanco in Sanremo, it must be said, they didn't kiss and they won't do it in Turin. First of all, Blanco is straight and engaged and second it would be forced and counterproductive.

I don't understand why to get stuck on these useless details and I don't understand why yesterday, as a yardstick for the Swedish song, the Italian entry was used. Isn't it that underneath here is the fear of the double Italian victory? Live it quietly, Jonkonfui. If Spain wins, I can honestly say that I would be very happy for you. This thing about nationalism lent to music is sickening. We should be, first of all, lovers of good music (apart from subjective tastes).

Man i am just saying... I am not attacking Italian song or anything. It annoys me a bit so much intensity but it is ok.
However it annoys me more that every time i express my humble and sincere opinion you have to make a speech about me, about Spanish entry and about love in the world.
I dont like the Italian entry and it is not that I dont like it for reasons related to the Spanish one, I dont like it because I dont like it.

Will using words like "Puke" in old posts mean speaking normally? The commentary on the Spanish song I can do it for any other song. For me, anyone can win. Want to know what it feels like to win the Eurovision Song Contest? You are happy for a week and then you forget it. I enjoy music regardless of victory. In fact, in my comments in each thread you will see respect and, you think, even tips for winning. I don't consider Mahmood and Blanco winners. They have a good entry, they are contenders for victory but they are not clearly superior to the others. I will always talk about love in the world. Peace and happiness are worth more than any treasure.

I forgot, if you don't like the Italian song I respect your tastes.

A warm hug, Jonkonfui. I believe that beneath your barking is a sweet heart. You know, "Dog that barks, does not bite"

Man you are 'speechy' arent you? I dont bark. I dont have a sweet heart. In your posts you seem to be patronizing but it is ok with me. If you are gay when i come to Italy we can make love and brividi... A warm bum bum (Chanel dixit), a hug is too straight.

my humble and sincere opinion

Too much alcohol last night?

 

[nudiecrudi]

Tomorrow the running order.
First half?
Second half?
Usually we have been more in the second half.
Let's see

After seeing performing in the 2nd half quite frequently, I think it´s about time will be drawn into the first half.
However, "Brividi" is a classy ballad and should be allowed to shine around #20-#25, imo.
Actually, it would be a great way to close the GF.

4 times first half
6 times second half
It's almost equal
But ultimately we've been in the second half 2018 2019 2021.

Brividi should be in #12 -15 that is around the time when I desperately need to release all the beers I have drunk.

But then when people say their performance is so emotional, it is all fake. I mean i am gay and if i sing something about loving a woman i dont feel what i am singing... I can pretend though.

Why would it be fake? They aren't singing about/to each other (and thank god for that, because when Amaia and Alfred from Spain did this in 2018 it did not work out very well) but they do convey their own, real experiences and emotions.

I'm really curious to see what staging they will come up with because I wasn't too fond on how they staged it in Sanremo. I hope they won't just randomly park the two bikes there again.

Comparing Amaia and Alfred to Mahmood and the other is not making the latter any favour... So you mean they both sing the song to someone else not present on stage... Wow this is conceptual...
For me Brividi staging is clear: they should start the song naked on a bed and after that they ride a bike attached to some strings and then the bike flies and they chase each other. That would be so beautiful.

 

[FilipFromSweden]

Starting position #9

 

[lacrymea]

Starting position #9

That's not very good

 

[FilipFromSweden]

That's not very good

I think it’s ok. Måns won with #10 and Conchita with #11

 

[goncalovieira]

Salvador with #11 as well

 

[MopManMoss]

Salvador with #11 as well

But Brividi is nothing compared to Amar pelos dois

 

[Gera11]

But Brividi is nothing compared to Amar pelos dois

Of course not. It's much better.

 

[MopManMoss]

Of course not. It's much better.

I only have room in my heart for one host country duet and that will always be O Jardim

 

[Chiarina]

9th is not ideal, but it could be worse. Can you imagine if they picked 2nd?

 

[empo21]

I was hoping they picked #2 for the meltdowns

No9 isn't bad at all. Late first half is one of the most coveted spots of the first half and quite successful as well.
