Italy ITALY 2024 - Angelina Mango - La noia

[ESC United Mod Team]

The incredible thing is we almost sent that Geolier blubberish song instead of this. I still thank God it didn't happen.

 

[gingerale]

I'm not really convinced. Still so busy and the theme takes away the effortlessly coolness from the song and the artist. Too much circus for my taste.

 

[Lumina]

I liked the first one better, this is too dark and not outstanding enough and she‘s lacking power on stage.

Somehow I believe all AQs were holding it back on purpose today. Germany and Spain so static, UK too soft and shaky voices, Angelina sluggish on stage. Only France and Sweden delivered but I really can’t stand the Swedish performance since I have eye problems and they really hurt when I try watching it.

Thank God they ditched the kitschy outfits and went for Tali-at-the-Luxembourg-Song-Contest realness.

 

[SpiritofKeiino]

Am I the only one who preferred her outfit at the 1st rehearsal

 

[empo21]

I liked the 1st outfit but it was too similar to the graphics and we already have plenty fake nude outfits.

The 2nd one looks better for the performance imo

 

[EscGeek]

I also prefered the first outfit for obvious reasons

But it doesn't matter that much

 

[sucof]

sometimes you see problems everywhere because you have prejudice in your head, today was a good lesson for some presumptuous Swedish producer!

guess who said it

I think we can be proud of what Angelina's staff has done. The staging is stunning and elegant. I didn't have any doubt that her maneger and discographic label would have done everything to elevate the song but now we have the proof. I think they have used all the main optionals the stage offers: the cubes at the beginning , the golden waterfall towards the end for almost 15 sec and the fireworks at the end when she says Total.
I don't see Angelina, with this qualitative staging, out of top 5 but as we know in ESC everything could happen.
Italy will have an optimal drawing in the final ( why should the producers damage the chances of Italy by giving bad RO?)
Only 6 days left. We'll see.

In my opinion Angelina will finish for sure top 3 with the juries, but I don't think she will be that high with televoters. The song is vibrant, she's going to deliver as always, but cumbia Is not for everyone and she struggled with the televoters even in Sanremo. I think She will reach a great position, even top 3, but I don't see her winning the whole thing (even if I hope so, for obvious reasons). My main favourites still remain Switzerland and Ukraine when we are approaching semi 1.

Good point of view.
But Angelina came 2nd with the televote in Sanremo overshadowing stars like Annalisa Mahmoud Ghali and Irama.
Even Mahmood 2019 with Soldi wasn't for everyone but he got an honorable 3rd place with the televote.
Who knows.

Just keep the 1st rehearsal dress.... lot of lesbians watch the show too, you know.

 

[sucof]

When will there be the next singing rehearsal?

 

[Paco Roca]

Just keep the 1st rehearsal dress.... lot of lesbians watch the show too, you know.

So together with the performance of "Dizzy" and Windows95man's underwear we can say that this year we are witnessing the Pornvision Song Contest

Cute post: Angelina's style.

 

[soulm8]

I’m really confused with all those rehearsal videos. Not in a good way! Gonna wait for tomorrow before I judge it.

 

[nofuxCZ]

I am sorry to say after seeing the leaked performance that the staging is not working.

 

[southernstars]

I don't bother watching the rehearsal videos if I can help it. I always like to be surprised!

I really like the song. The beat is addictive. I showed my Italian in-laws last night and my mother-in-law was getting into it. I also found out that Angelina is the daughter of Giuseppe Mango, from Basilicata - that's the region my father-in-law is from! I was excited about that. My FIL has heard of him but didn't recognise him (he's been in Australia since 1984). Was sad hearing how young Mango died. I was surprised to discover Mango had an album called Australia from 1985 and the title track, singing about Australia. We listened to it and it was a beautiful song. I wondered whether he had ever travelled there, why was he singing about my country?

Angelina's dad would have been so proud of her representing Italy at Eurovision.

No, no, no, no, we are probably botching a winning artist with an uneffective staging.
Hope it's not that bad
