Raphael Gualazzi's first rehearsal (Italy)

[MRsuperSQUIRRAL]

i think this was the best song

[vlatka007pokos]

but Dana International THE BEST

[Bettina12100]

Reality and phantasy ist auch ein phantastisches Lied , der pure Wahnsinn!!!!!! Grazie Raphael!

[FruityLoopsas]

This song is for gurmans.... for musicians who study music..... and I love it... I am a musician, and if italy wont win, dont wory...... because this year in eurovision, are about 10 real songs..... I can say which are real songs..... Bulgaria(didnt qualify), Lithuania(second place semifinals and one of my favorites), Iceland(qualified to finals), Azerbaijan(qualified to finals), Finland(qualified to finals), Italia(One of my favorites). I am a musician, and this is objective opinion...

[cadreghina]

I Love it!!!!!! :D

[finalfantasy696969]

I want this to win! But it wont, why? Because people dont know what real music is and vote for Jedward, an image

[wimpers]

Excellent live performance!

The cameraman should show his hands (and face) though! What a player!

Fantastic song, written, played and sung by Raphael! Bravissimo!!!

[elena01062010]

Best !!! 12 points from Moldova!

[maschaviolin]

lovely song! in italian sounds even better!

[Zeetana1]

I will vote for Italy this year!

PS: It sounds like a James Bond type of song! :D

[Zeetana1]

One of the best songs with most quality this year! I also love that they don't go for any gimmicks, dancing, costume changes or magic on stage, but that even the background shows images of INSTRUMENTS!!! They fake playing well too, it shows authenticity, like they can actually play the instruments and not just pretending to. It's like every part of this performance focuses on the MUSIC, you know - LIKE IT SHOULD! It's also one of the few songs that sound like a normal song outside of Eurovision

[sylviaamadrid]

oh i see in the map that spain&germany are your biggest fans

12 points!!!

[intersezioni]

The problem of Eurovision and the lack of an orchestra that does not excite and enhances the song should be. Now look the same song played with an orchestra in italy and see the difference for the better

[papyrous18]

dont shot the pianist!!!!!!!! 

[rubenglp]

I´m so sorry , but it is the most boring song i´ve ever heard

[TheFerroC]

@rubenglp

Please, silence...

[rubenglp]

@TheFerroC Sorry for you but after having seen in the final , i still keep having the same opinion B O R I N G

[Garell0s]

@aulitos I know... I don't expect it to be somewhere in front, but just enjoy seeing some quality at the contest.

[exoticwild]

I'll vote for Italy.

This is a excellent song to win.

[stefanborkos]

that is music. Super.

[mx060990]

Thanks Italy. This is the best. Just a good singer doing REAL MUSIC. That's what Eurovision is about. I'll vote for you, FROM SPAIN.

[kiki7396]

He's the best. <3

[clementelucasborja]

i'm agree

[clariita2011]

i'd prefer all the song in italian

[AlmansaMeteo]

TOP 3 in spanish votes , no doubt . This is MUSIC

[ildico1]

I didn't like this song at first, but now it's growing on me.

[Mrs1yohanna89]

:/

[EurovisionLife]

10 points from Germany xx

[06aalex]

i'm completely shocked that hardly nobody put this song one their top or say that it could be the winner!! omg, it's way better than france. my vote for sure! it's funny i don't like italian language, but in this song it sounds pretty awesome. i'm 18 year old girl and i won't vote like many teenagers for eric saade or blue, but for him!

[TheAl888]

@06aalex I completely agree with you! This is an amazing song and Raphael Gualazzi can make it into the finals for Italy and he could totaly win!! He has a nice jazz style thats amazing! He's so talented!

[06aalex]

@TheAl888 well Raphael is already in final, because Italy is the country from Big5 (they put a lot of money for the contest, so their place in final is guaranteed). The point is let's keep fingers crossed that he'll make it to the top in final, not to the bottom, greets ;)

[TheAl888]

@06aalex Ahhaha, yes, to the top finals then! XD

[MrBjorn88it]

@06aalex

Thank you :) good luck with Jestem..it will go to the final sure ;)

[JojoBerlin89]

thats not going to be on the top places .. its a nice song but many songs are better

[satyaahimsa]

MADE IN ITALY :-)

[lauritaxful]

bella canzione welcome back italia

[Darkglobe86]

Bellissima canzone, forse gli italiani a cui non piace preferivano una delle solite cagate sanremesi o altre cagate che stanno in cima alle nostre classifiche, mentre Raphael per fortuna è molto più originale, ha portato aria nuova nella pena totale di Sanremo

[LEPRECANO68]

@Darkglobe86 Per fortuna che è uscito Gualazzi per dare un 'impronta all'italia che , da i tempi dei jalisse era scomaparsa dal panorama musicale europeo. confermo che è stata la miglior canzone non solo per il panorama musicale...meglio di tante attricette sul palco, e di tante marcette a cui ci aveva abituato Cristina d'avena. Complimenti a Raphaele alla sua canzone!!

[MrBjorn88it]

Non dimentichiamoci che il 50% dei voti è affidato a giurie di competenza! Giurie che a mio avviso noteranno l'alta qualità delle canzoni Italiana e francese che sono di un certo livello rispetto al solito pop est-europeo

[MrBjorn88it]

leggendo i commenti noto che agli italiani non piace mentre agli stranieri si.. io dico solo ai miei compatrioti di appoggiare un po' di più questo ragazzo che agisce da vero "pioniere" visto che 13 anni di assenza non sono pochi, infatti il format del programma è cambiato di molto rispetto al 97! e poi scusate..Siamo proprio NOI italiani a NON poterlo votare..ci voteranno le altre nazioni a cui per altro la canzone piace e anche molto! abituiamoci anche a vedere aspetti positivi!

[Eurovisionlukefan]

This is not the Italy we want Thumbs up

[penproduktion]

i love it from germany! :-) 

[Miriam89]

One of my top5 this year :)

[euphranic]

Gracious, the Big 5 has stepped up the game!!

[eurosongfanserbia]

welcome baaack Italyyyy! kiss from Serbia..wonderfull song! CLASS!

[Theritsunyan]

Good song :) good luck from Russia :)

[The88Mc]

This Song is CLASS

[The88Mc]

I LOVE THIS SONG....

[cadburymonkey]

Cmon Italy!! I'm rooting for ya!

This song is Class!!

[Novecentino]

I'm from Italy and I love this song!!

[globalnine]

@Novecentino it`s normal :)

[lamicky10]

Love this song, his style is really unique.

It's so nice to see something different!

[zgaulois]

BRAVISSIMA ITALIA BIENVENUE AU CONCOURS APRES 14 ANS!

L'Annee prochaine Anna Oxa, SVP!

[franzzsh]

This song may be WAY too good for Eurovision!!! Italy is bringing class back!

[franzzsh]

I'm not from Italy and I love this song! :)

[benZZZgomeZZZ]

P.S. It'S good to see Italy back. I hope they stay.

[benZZZgomeZZZ]

I like it... but it's because i am a fan of the genre. It's similar to France's entry because of being so specifically different... or germany's entry. I guess there'S more people that like "opera" than anything else... is why France has more bets to win... but generally, it's not really different to this.

We'll see how all of those songs turn out at the end.

[dirofreak]

In my top 10 (and i hate Italian attitude at ESC and i even hate their return, that's says a lot about this song, quality nthat will score better than it should have however (because "it's Italy's return blah blah"))

[ESCFANCYPRUS]

This is one of the best song of this year! But ESC fans do not understand it, because a lot of them cannot appreciate the quality of a song! What to say if they all love Sweden's song with those silly lyrics!

[Tvaaranen]

@ESCFANCYPRUS Not the best but still a lot of better than cheep Sweden's song definitely!

[Novecentino]

@ESCFANCYPRUS "Don't tell me it's impossible, because it's possible" LOL

[gullskoify]

Italy has a superb song:) My absolute favourite:) And it even sounds fabolous on this impression video. Great music, great voice:)

[Devastator516]

AWESOME!

[ExplosiveIcee]

Italy is Back <3

[souldaisy84]

Vai Raffy!!! Spacca tutto!!! :-D

[tihk89]

You and me can't you see we're playing with fire... What? This is different piano?

[kristicuk]

@tihk89 haha!

[Garell0s]

It's just too good for Eurovision. Superb!

[livesontrial]

I hate the screaming parts!

[sffilk]

He needs to pronounce his words more succinctly. Granted I don't speak Italian, but it seems he's mumbling his words a bit. That said, I can't judge the song, except that I like the jazzy feel of it.

[The99Brothers]

Hahah, the trasparent piano!

This is an Idea from Romania last year! =D

[SmaaRoe]

This song is really competing with France.

On being the most dull and misplaced song in ESC 2011. XD

By all means, nice songs and all, but deat boring and totally misplaced.

[eviken1982]

@SmaaRoe Why misplaced, east-europe made eurovision a festival of circusacts. So italy and france are bringing the real music back, eurovision was not always full of popsongs and circus acts. So no it's not misplaced, it's good, real good.

[DieReineWahrheit]

12 Points from Germany go to... ITALY!I really love it. It's really brave to send real music to the esc... I hope, it will find the attention it deserves (which would be to win)

[goddamnfreak]

Too sophisticated for Eurovision.

[penproduktion]

12 points from Germany :-D

i love it!!!

[camicarucci]

i prefer paula seling touching piano for romania 2010 ! :P but it's ok, 7 points to Italy.

[DaniCaliforniaPL]

@zeven111111 No problem, but don't treat this very personal

[zeven111111]

@DaniCaliforniaPL i just don't care

@zeven111111

Beh non è vero, molte persone stanno scrivendo nella loro lingua.. Ad ogni modo non ho voglia di litigare, in fondo ti sei solo espresso. Quindi scusa (o "I'm sorry" se preferisci)

[zeven111111]
