Italy ITALY 2024 - Angelina Mango - La noia

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[jatojo]

The top ten streak seems to survive another year!

Yes, and with an uptempo song with a female singer. Not that common from Italy.

 

[Mainshow]

If Angelina accepts the ticket to Malmö, I can totally relax until May. I don't have any other "big favourites" in any national finals left (maybe "Luktek" ) .. but I already got and to throw my points at

 

[Gwendal]

Congrats Italy, you have NOT made the wrong choice. Grazie mille Angelina!

 

[ayzelto]

I will give her 7 points when the poll is out. The song in studio is good but I am not convinced by the live version of it (vocally speaking).

However, I am glad that finally a woman is going to Eurovision for Italy and that all of you are so happy with this choice!

 

[Loindici]

Wait, did a woman finally win Sanremo after all these years?
FINALLY!

 

[jatojo]

A weird finish. It would have been more comprehensible, if the two old men were drunk.

[AliceEsc]

What a relief! I love La Noia and Angelina is so cute and joyful and seems to have a bubbly personality, we're gonna have a great time in Malmö!

 

[Gwendal]

LA NOIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

(i"m sinceramente team since the beginning but that's a good piece of news)

 

[Etanna]

A weird finish. It would have been more comprehensible, if the two old men were drunk.

they hosted the last 5 editions, I think, and this was their final one so they said goodbye a bit more dramatically

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

This will be loved by both televoters and jurors, finally another contender after Ukraine.

 

[ZoboCamel]

Assuming she accepts the Eurovision ticket... eh. Not really my cup of tea. Song has slightly more identity than Malta/Luxembourg but otherwise I'm putting it in the same bin of "basic radio pop that doesn't really stir any emotions in me." for now; hopefully it grows on me a bit.

That said, I guess I can at least appreciate Italy sending something different from their usual "ballad man" for once

 

[Koori]

I've never been so nervous for the last 5-6 years.
ANGELINA FOR THE WIIIIN!

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I'll probably give La Noia a when the poll comes up...might grow to a in time though but for now it's feeling like a 6.

 

[Gwendal]

they hosted the last 5 editions, I think, and this was their final one so they said goodbye a bit more dramatically

definitely they're back next year because it was NOT dramatical.

And I love both of them for this.

 

[PollyWantsACracker]

Geolier didn't win and that's enough for my poor soul tonight. Angelina is a 6 for me only, but it will work. I don't see her in top 10 in Malmö, it transpires Portugal 2023 results right away. Portugal's entry was also the Bubble's love, but it got lost in general audience's short attention span.

Since Måneskin Sanremo didn't succeed in producing 1 original or at least overwhelming song, and it shows a serious decline. The format also is torturing to follow so this was the last time I watched it.

Good night to all of you tortured souls here.

 

[Loindici]

By the way, I'm not following Sanremo and I was just here for the win.

Listening to La Noia, gosh, it's such a supercar of a song. There are traditional elements here and there, vocal-demanding belts, fast rapping (if you guys call them rapping), fast part changes, dramatic/musical-like accentuations, an acapella section... you got every single skill weapon in just three minutes. However, this makes the song SO difficult to perform.

 

[Seregil Korit]

So happy with this result.
My third favourite for Sanremo overall but my second favourite in Eurovision so far (assuming she agrees to go, of course)!

 

[Decayingbooks]

I'll give it a when the poll is up.
I like the instrumental a lot, but I don't find the song catchy, imho Annalisa would have been a better choice amongst the girls.
One thing about "La Noia" that I also like is that it has a lot of potential for a great staging, sadly we're talking about Italy Rai they don't care about staging their songs, but I would love if Angelina hired someone to elevate her performance, the song is begging for some dancers arround her.

Makes sense to some degree. But I didn't see it as drama, rather the opposite: no music and just them walking around saying thank you to all kinds of people, and then at the end they said thank you to the building the show had been hosted in.
