Since after Sanremo, we never lack anything (currently having controversies over the voting system and strong political debates as an artist on stage called for a halt to the genocide), Geolier returned to Naples asking to be booed because 'he was booed.' Italy is indeed a surreal country.

Mistake for Simon, Vittozzi on the lead 

Another medal for Lisa, great WCh for her

WHAT COMEBACK! From -2 to +1, WE ARE IN SEMIFINAL!

The refereeing isn't favoring anyone, but it's really embarrassing. They're getting so many things wrong, from both sides. Send them to referee children's Games, these two idiots should never see an international match again.

Italy is way better than Canada, even if you don’t qualify right now you’ll eventually book your ticket to Paris through the 5-8th place brackets. 

I don't think that we'll able to defeat Netherlands

Oh well, that's a total debacle for the Italian. Canada have an huge chance to qualify at Olympics

Hungary won at penalty and qualify for Paris

Annalisa should have won in my opinion. 

 

 

It's a great tradition, just make the shows shorter.  A 4-hour evenings from 8-12 PM is perfectly possible. Every year there 6-7 songs, that are just filler. Have 22 songs and everything will be smoother.

In reality, the length isn't a big issue, at least not felt here in Italy. A lot of time is indeed dedicated to guests and similar things. Even on evenings with only 15 singers, the show ends around 1:30. And then there's the 45-minute after-show

I still don't understand this weekly hype, where you have festival nights in succesion, from 8.45 till almost 2 a.m. (on final night even longer).

 

And then on Sunday two hour long morning talk show about San Remo, in the afternoon another show. It is just too much. 

 

Anyway, I like the winner a lot, it has quite a lot of energy, also Annalisa was not bad, was cheering also for Clara or maybe Rose Villain and for "una ragazza e un ragazzo".  

 

I am not surprised Mahmood was not in top 5, did not convince me.

Simply put, Sanremo is Sanremo; it's too important for us Italians :0 I know people who take time off work, jokingly calling it "holy week" on social media. Even politics talks about Sanremo and brings controversies to parliament. I think it's simply a matter of tradition

The share data for the Sanremo super final have finally been released: over 10 million viewers at 2am, with a 91% share. Wow, not even the 2006 World Cup final had these numbers

Yes from the last Champs... I had this paid status, but luve scoring was terrible there and still in on this site.

There is a live scoring? I only see the results page that update at end of the match 

I just notice that UWW become a pay-for-view only. That's sad. 

This is embarrassing. France lead 15-5 in the Lima's final.

WHAT TIME 

Silver medal for Lisa!

Can someone explain what all this controversy is about Geolier ? Never heard of him before and find all the drama strange.

The main problem is that the song was terrible, truly terrible (aside from being in Neapolitan and not in Italian, the rules were ad-hoc changed for him). There have been many accusations that Geolier's fans bought SIM cards in mass to vote, but I find that quite unlikely.

Certainly, many Neapolitans believe the controversies are a matter of territorial racism, but it's absolutely false—I say this as a Campanian. Even Angelina Mango has verses in Neapolitan in her songs, and she's from Basilicata.

Sanremo is Sanremo; controversies and boos are normal. It has always happened and is part of the show. I recall an edition where the jury rebelled against Emanuele Filiberto, a member of the former Italian royal family, entering the final, even throwing the sheet music

https://youtu.be/U0zFizNPkwU?si=UzASIIsv-QorjBtc

Incredible numbers for the Sanremo final, reaching a 74% share (!!!). For comparison, the semi-final of the UEFA European Championship Italy-France had a 77% share.

Apparently, the Superfinal reached 80-85% share, staggering numbers comparable to World Cup football finals with Italy, wow.

Anyway, the closing of the evening was a bit sad. Amadeus and Fiorello, the best hosts of the Sanremo Festival, announced their retirement after 5 years. It will be interesting to see in the coming months if RAI can convince them to change their minds or if they will have to find new hosts

Popular vote:

Yesss Angelina Mango won the 74th Festival di Sanremo.

Geolier won the popular vote by 60% but he was DESTROYED from press and radio juries. Vamosss
