The SANREMO CHAT LONGE FT. MONGE (Italy 2024)

[Madison]

Did they name check Vivienne Westwood?

 

[C’est la VoR]

It's giving stag party ruining the vibes at a grotty karaoke bar.

I like Gazzelle's music so had quite high hopes for this. But this is particularly STINKING by his standards.

 

[Madison]

Second worst song of the night.

 

[win_the_game]

I imagine the vocals will sound less CONSTIPATED in the studio version.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

They couldn’t possibly sound MORE!

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Ok I hate HIM but you can’t deny the DONK on this one!

 

[Madison]

I don’t know what to make of this.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

I’d love an instrumental.

 

[Madison]

It sounded anthemic. I’m just not sure what it was an anthem for.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

8. Dargen D’Amico – Onda alta

ANOTHER rapper. One of the few songs that discusses political and social issues. This makes reference to migrants and refugees coming across the Mediterranean in small boats. Likely to enrage fans of Giorgia Meloni and her far-right mob.

It sounded anthemic. I’m just not sure what it was an anthem for.

 

[win_the_game]

The first comments about Gaza with Dargen calling for a ceasefire at the end.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

omg

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

The way this seamlessly slips between earnest ballad and SLUT BOP!

 

[win_the_game]

This is great. All the women are bringing it this year

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Obsessed.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Genuinely psychotic.

 

[Marina Salty]

Is it still going on?

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

The absolute state of Italy if a man STILL wins this year!

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Is it still going on?

Yes.

 

[win_the_game]

CLICK! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! is stuck in my head

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

5 left

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

5 left

According to the schedule we get the result STRAIGHT AFTER

 

[win_the_game]

The lead singer looks complete filth.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

The lead singer looks complete filth.

Would let ruin.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Only men left.

 

[win_the_game]

Would let ruin.

And this one now!

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

At least they saved the fuckable ones for the end.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Omg could this be good

 

[win_the_game]

What were they thinking with the running order? The last run of four songs, including this have been great.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Yes probably the best male entry along with Mahmood.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Having 30 songs on the 1st night you’ve never heard before is a TERRIBLE IDEA btw, it’s not so bad when you’re FAMILIAR with them, but quite GRUELLING when they’re all new!

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

It was much better being EASED in on the first two nights.

 

[Tetris-Rock]

Having 30 songs on the 1st night you’ve never heard before is a TERRIBLE IDEA btw, it’s not so bad when you’re FAMILIAR with them, but quite GRUELLING when they’re all new!

This show is definitely not designed with the capacity of the human memory in mind. Thirty songs and basically no changes in staging which might offer visual cues to JOG THE MEMORY.

Like, there’s a reason Diodato’s performance stands out in my mind and it isn’t the song.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Obviously I’m trying to apply common sense and logic to proceedings which the Italians are so CLEARLY ABOVE.

 

[win_the_game]

Lovely as it is, this is not the song we need to hear at 12:40 am.

 

[C’est la VoR]

This one sounds the most like the song Italy sends every other year so I assume it has a good chance of winning.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

We’re nearly at the end.



Of night 1 of 5

 

[win_the_game]

Hasn't it flown by
