Yeah, I prefer Norway's format. But still, MF has a clear progression. The songs are presented - they go through to the next round, or they don't.
I know it perfectly. But why all this progression for months?. Put the songs in two semis and close it with a final.
I'm not saying that there is something wrong with MF.
Sanremo and MF are the two most important Nf and have two completely and opposite philosophies.

I fully respect that Sanremo is something special - some even say Sanremo is a separate event more than other national Eurovision contests are. It also has to do with tradition and all that. But this doesn't change my opinion regarding the way the whole competition is arranged.

Coma_Cose improved tonight. Now that I've heard the studio version I can say it works better without the orchestra but still good live.

There's one big similarity though: together with Albania, it's the only three competitions of the season where we only hear the entries (in full) once they are performed live on stage. This emphasis on the live performance is a very important factor for the quality (in this case, measured by the eventual ESC placement) of Sanremo/Melfest's winners.
(The big pool of submissions to choose from is of course very important as well, which is why it doesn't work as great for Albania as for the other two).

But only two of them use a live orchestra and sing in native language. For this reason I said that MF and Sanremo are completely different. It's a long long long long time I don't listen a song in Swedish in ESC.

Lettera 22 has great nostalgic melodic verses and a nice chorus, I'll move Cugini di Campagna to "my winners" list
