100% Shit ...... He only got votes to keep Italy happy so they wont throw a tantrum and boycott it again ...... well, the contest still survived without Italy
@fustyans EXACTLY if uk or any other western country sent boring shit like this we'd end up in botom 5 it was not fair for this to get 2nd even when spains entry was more beter than this!
@fustyans Who cares about you you don't count a lot you and your useless country you are so desperate to come here to comment something that don't belong to you at all
----Italy scares ---thats why you have so much hatred about him You realised people don't vote only for pussy-like singers!
@jnmdjc957 Then all the other songs that don't have the musicians acting on the stage are not good? All other songs have been recorded by "real musicians".... Italy only had one singer and 5 fake musicians, but other countries had 6 LIVE singers (the maxium people on stage are 6).
@lfredmd What? No, not unless the other acting musicians also composed and recorded themselves playing their instruments. I may be wrong, and please forgive me if I am, but these guys here seem to have actually invested in their instruments and trained themselves as musicians, unlike many entries that seem to consist of only a hot-shot singer and a computer generated loop or other. I'm just trying to give credit to those that may have actually put some real effort into their songs.
@lfredmd ..well I can just say that these are not "fake musicians". Maybe they are acting in the show, but this is absolutely Raphael's orchestra because I saw him play in my city and they were with him..playing live...
@lauritaxful so ??? he's native italian ..if u didnt get it! ...Are u able to speak some italian ??? ... before letting your brain fart! please be sure that your mouth is shut!
@violetshark yes i can speak a little bit,and i don't mind if you don't believe but i can understand better his italian than his english,and of course i prefer that he sings in his native language
it's not the kind of music i prefer but i like it much because is so authedic , that's Italy! today i met in train an Italian and we had a conversation(in english) so cute♥ sutch similarity! Una Faccia Una Razza♥ kisses & hugs from greece :)
I can understand that people have different music tastes and etc, but displaying your opinion as an arrogant comment is not exactly clever.
I am a musician, a local one maybe, but I understand that this isn't the easiest piece of music to play, he's playing it while singing live O.o which is outstanding, yet people like you say it's "SHIT"? what's wrong with putting talent in the eurovision? it's that, or next year everyone will turn up with autotune... which would be molto patetico!
@geoclph well its my opinion and u cant argue with it if you think its a good song put nice comments for it and yes i think its not suitable for eurovision because in eurovision u have to go with peoples taste in music in this generation!
lol in this generation? how old do you think i am? lol
but you make a valid point, I shouldn't be arguing with opinions, everyone is entitled to them. but you shouldn't really post up your opinions in a... childish manner, if you said, 'hmm, i don't like this song that much, i've seen more impressive acts' it's better than posting what you did, if you know what I mean.
So... sorry on my behalf, arguing over the internet isn't something I really wanna do lol. It's old fashioned ha
I didn't mean the "how old do you think i am?" as some comment to spur something up lol, I only wanted to know because you said "music in this generation" I kinda laughed, because I'm 18 lol, which means, as your a teenager too the generation difference here isn't really that different xD
Sorry if it looked like I tried starting another argument, I didn't wanna, you can take my many apoligies or carry on I don't mind but nothing can get me down haha, just finished A-Level exams :)
@geoclph idc if uve done exams or not, i dont wanna carry on cos i dont argue with BOYS its pointless, and good for italy AND you i thank god that italy didnt win so thats enough for me.
Just out of curiousity, did you prefer Azerbaijan's song to this one?
Personally I expected Azerbaijan's song to be better, as it won 'n all... but nothing sounded that great about it lol, Moldova's song was better than their's haha, it was such a catchy tune lol
@geoclph me personally when i heard azerbaijans song i said oh no if this is gonna win the eurovision im gonna kill myself but there it won de eurovision lol :/, but then my favourite was ireland.moldova's song was catshy but i didnt get the idea of the hats:/
Yeah Ireland done quite well, I was suprised because I don't really like Jedward but their song was great, they got a few more respect point from me for that lol
And the Moldova hats... I don't understand 'em but I kinda want one xD
@alrdd I didn't search it. I was watching sth else and bumped this one and said what I think about this song. do you really believe Italy deserved the second place? I do not think so. They took the second place thanks to EBU. I can't see anyone denying this!
pure class and refinement , great skills and superior music ability , this excellent song is by far upper any awful or just decent song of the contest , otherwise said upper all customable trash of ESC .
No need to say Raphael Gulazzi is the true winner of ESC 2011 , but you know this is ESC so tasteless clueless and ignorant people did their job .....
Jury Voting score for Italy - 251, Televoting score for Italy - 99 (One more than Moldova!)
Jury Voting score for UK - 57, Televoting score for UK - 166 (Two less than Ukraine!)
Despite Blue getting the fifth highest televoting score, a handful of Jurors in a room can still happily brush aside every single one of those votes in a flash. Denmark had one of the lowest televoting scores, yet still came in 5th. The show is for the people of Europe; at least make their votes count for something.
@smpowis 99% of people don't vote for the quality of the songs,but for the "flag" of own country or for countries that are considered "friends". On Italian TV this show was seen only by 1,5 millions of people, much less than in other countries,that's why the Italian song had little score in televote and didn't win.In Northern and Eastern Europe ESC is seen by millions of people.Shouldn't be given the possibility of televoting:it's the best way to cheat the final result.Better a jury of experts
@MrFabioRulez man i like some opera songs but aniway i don't like the people here in italy you know why?because you people think that italy is the best country in the world and you think that anythig you do is better than wath others does..so that's why i don't like italy and nothing that comes from it
@Meacre Sorry, but if you don't like people "here in Italy", why don't you go back to your land? Why you stay here in country that you don't like, between people you don't appreciate? Your beloved Romania is waiting for you. Pack your paper-luggage and go, thanks.
@Mikala79 Are you a 15 year old girl ? because Sweden where terrible wtf where those lyrics repeat repeat so bad this style of music actually has talent.
@MrFabioRulez not at all.I don't give a shit about this contest and you italians don't have cool music..i am pretty sure you have listen to INNA ,ALEXANDRA STAN,EDWARD MAYA etc..nobody listen to italian music..
@Meacre Taking into account i don't like this song in particular... you have no right to offend a whole nation which produced some of the finest example of music, so much that all music terms are italian... think about opera, performed all over the world in all the greatest theatres. oh well i don't expect someone like you to actually enjoy the arts... also talking about modern days music, there is A. Bocelli i.e "time to say good bye" with Sarah brightsman etc. Oh and Hot temptation By Blackbox
@giorich Thank u for appreciating Italy. But I think you're wasting your time: that Rumanian man must have a prejudice against us. You know, it's practically impossible to win a prejudice. You may tell him that Italy is the country with more than 50% of the artistic patrimony of the whole world,but I think it won't help.U may tell him that when Romans went to Dacia (old Romania) to civilize his land, local people was living on the trees,but it won't help.Thank u anyway,and welcome to Italy!
@GiallaVelatura You have just annulled the "50% of the artistic patrimony" with a "0% (zero) of your intellectual capacity" by affirming that people from Dacia were living on the trees ... Let's listen to this beautiful song instead of commenting stupidities...
@vakumik Of course "people from Dacia living on the trees" was a metaphor, I thought it was obvious. The meaning was:people from Dacia were much less civilizated.But you've to consider my words connected to what "Meacre" wrote. He was insulting Italians, but he lives here. I'm tired of people who are cryticizing us (99% because coz they're envious) but they don't move ass and go back to own country.Example:If I go to someone else's house and I don't like who's living there, I go away.
Very very very very beautifull. It's too too ...too... good for Eurovision ! Very beautifull Italy :) Welcome back ! I hope next year you will catch place ONE !
10 points to Romania ! ( nu se poate 12 , 12 puncte merg la vecinii nostri de dupa prut :D )
real music lovers will appreciate this song...Italy did great...unexpectedly so - but i loved this song. a great contender for the title...real music!!!!!!!!!!!
Very decent song. VERY DECENT. I don't know what anyone is saying about this being shit. It was ideal. It wasn't eurovision, but seriosuly BEST song in the contest easily.
@ilaughALOThehe Well, if the ears of 90% of people in this world are trained to listen to ordinary trash-music, then you don't have to wonder if a song like this is not worldwide appreciated. If someone is traiend to eat shit every day, then he doesn't like chocolate anymore! :) Anyway many people liked this song (otherwise couldn't be 2nd). About Raphael, you'll hear more about, because he's got the "fire" of art, inside. Other singers of ESC will be forgotten next week
@Meacre We came back to ESC to submit decent music in an ocean of shit and copy-paste songs. If you cannot appreciate what the true art is, go to the forests of your Transilvania listening to Lena and all other "masterpieces" of ESC.
I totally fell in love with this song. considering the standards of eurovision, I'm almost glad it came second. of course I hated azerbaijan's song, but still, italy could have done badly since it's not pop music.
well done Italy though! join eurovision again next year!
Italy cheated this year. Submitting a decent song to represent your country goes totally against the spirit of Eurovision. Shame on them. At least Azerbaijan won with a shit song to restore order.
@milanostabia00 you don't get it he/she was saying Italy was good so good in fact that they should'nt have been in eurovision because eurovision usually has such a low standard .. they were being sarcastic.
@milanostabia00 Caro conterraneo, non hai capito un cazzo. Quel/la ragazzo/a inglese voleva fare un complimento a Rapahel. E ne ha fatto uno grandissimo, dicendo, con ironia, che l'Italia ha ingannato: in una competizione dove tutti inviano merda musicale, l'Italia ha mandato una canzone superba...andando contro la "regola" (che vuole che all'Eurofestival ci sia solo merda). Ha concluso dicendo (ancora con ironia) che per fortuna ha vinto l'Azerbaigian, così la "regola" era rispettata.
@thespread even with this decent song that Italy submitted they still weren't fancied by anyone, granted the Azerbaijan song was shit, but I dont think Italy did anything worse than Germany or England who submitted established stars to the contest, lets face it how many people listen to this kind of song? not many, and it still has the Eurovision spirit in being kooky!...amazing song!
I sincerely thought Italy would win, they were the only song worth buying, Im so inlove with this song it should have been a clear winner!!!!! love from Finland
Woooow !!!! This song is pure perfection!!! I'm amazed by it's emotion... They earned first place, I was shocked when I saw that azerbajian's song won !!! Greetings from Croatia :)
He looks high. To say it's a decent song? Well. It's been done before. As has everything that's out at the moment. Songs are going to have same/similar chord progressions but, you can implement them in different ways and this song has not been done so. Maybe setting my standards a bit high for Eurovision but then again decent song was mentioned. Having said all that it is better than most dribble in the charts.
Great song! I love the song! I love Italian! ...It just creeped me out because it looks a TON like my brother...and sounds like him...so...yeah....but I still love it!

Very decent song. VERY DECENT. I don't know what anyone is saying about this being shit. It was ideal. It wasn't eurovision, but seriosuly BEST song in the contest easily.

@ilaughALOThehe Well, if the ears of 90% of people in this world are trained to listen to ordinary trash-music, then you don't have to wonder if a song like this is not worldwide appreciated. If someone is traiend to eat shit every day, then he doesn't like chocolate anymore! :) Anyway many people liked this song (otherwise couldn't be 2nd). About Raphael, you'll hear more about, because he's got the "fire" of art, inside. Other singers of ESC will be forgotten next week

@Meacre We came back to ESC to submit decent music in an ocean of shit and copy-paste songs. If you cannot appreciate what the true art is, go to the forests of your Transilvania listening to Lena and all other "masterpieces" of ESC.

I totally fell in love with this song. considering the standards of eurovision, I'm almost glad it came second. of course I hated azerbaijan's song, but still, italy could have done badly since it's not pop music.
well done Italy though! join eurovision again next year!

Italy cheated this year. Submitting a decent song to represent your country goes totally against the spirit of Eurovision. Shame on them. At least Azerbaijan won with a shit song to restore order.

@milanostabia00 you don't get it he/she was saying Italy was good so good in fact that they should'nt have been in eurovision because eurovision usually has such a low standard .. they were being sarcastic.

GiallaVelatura 9 months ago
@milanostabia00 Caro conterraneo, non hai capito un cazzo. Quel/la ragazzo/a inglese voleva fare un complimento a Rapahel. E ne ha fatto uno grandissimo, dicendo, con ironia, che l'Italia ha ingannato: in una competizione dove tutti inviano merda musicale, l'Italia ha mandato una canzone superba...andando contro la "regola" (che vuole che all'Eurofestival ci sia solo merda). Ha concluso dicendo (ancora con ironia) che per fortuna ha vinto l'Azerbaigian, così la "regola" era rispettata.

@thespread even with this decent song that Italy submitted they still weren't fancied by anyone, granted the Azerbaijan song was shit, but I dont think Italy did anything worse than Germany or England who submitted established stars to the contest, lets face it how many people listen to this kind of song? not many, and it still has the Eurovision spirit in being kooky!...amazing song!

He looks high. To say it's a decent song? Well. It's been done before. As has everything that's out at the moment. Songs are going to have same/similar chord progressions but, you can implement them in different ways and this song has not been done so. Maybe setting my standards a bit high for Eurovision but then again decent song was mentioned. Having said all that it is better than most dribble in the charts.

to make this kind of music you should have studied several years..
to make a song like the one of azerbaijan you don't need study, just a good voice and a pretty nice face.
