Well, now this was a surprise! San Marino made it again. Valentina Monetta returns to Eurovision and again with a song written by Ralph Siegel! The song is called Crisalide or Chrysalis in English. The lyrics are by Mauro Balestri and indeed there's this Italian version as well. Hopefully they wil use at least the bilingual version in Eurovision!
After last year's Eurovision with Facebook Siegel and Monetta have been working on an album and this song was selected among the songs on it.
And this is Siegel's 21st Eurovision entry :-) And this blogger is just happy he's back, "alla faccia di tutti". I can't understand fans complaining about him and adoring various G:sons, Borgs and others who are there every year, year after year, in every possible national final. Get real!
In the press conference they also talked about the marketing strategy and it looks like they will concentrate on internet again, plus Valentina will visit Amsterdam's Eurovision in concert and/or London. And then it's all about making the performance stand out. Last year the song was not written for her but for someone much younger but she accepted to do it anyways. This time the song is really written especially for her, and she confessed she really wants to sing it in Italian. Or at least in Italian-English version.I think it will be completely different from last year's entry then!
