ITALY: SANREMO 2024 FINAL TONIGHT - GEOLIER, ANNALISA OR ANGELINA MANGO?


After last night's crowded Teatro Ariston with over 170 performers on stage and about 70 songs presented in one form or another and chaotic end of the show tonight it is back to normal. Last night again record breaking viewing figures: 67,8% share and 11.900.000 viewers!
Meanwhile in Spotify Geolier is still #1 but Mahmood took over Annalisa and Irama passed Angelina Mango in Top-5. The most watched moment was Irama with Riccardo Cocciante (16,6 million).
In TikTok the most used songs are Geolier (28.500 videos), Annalisa (21.700) and Loredana Bertè (5.400).

All 30 songs have entered the Official Italian singles chart occupying the first 13 places, and all within the top-84. The Top-10 in order is: 
1. Geolier, 2. Annalisa, 3. Mahmood, 4. Angelina Mango, 5. Irama, 6. Gazzelle, 7. The Kolors, 8. Loredana Bertè, 9. Emma, 10. Mr.Rain.

Five songs are totday present in Spotify's Daily Top songs Global chart:
#41 Mahmood (+10) 2.376.532 streams, #51 Geolier (+1) 2.197793, #82 (+6) Annalisa 1.735-373, #105 (+54) Angelina Mango 1.588.094 and #142 (-3) irama 1.425.669

Last night Rai posted performance reels and their top is as follows:
1. Angelina Mango (2,74 million views), 2. Alfa (7,5), 3. Santi Francesi (5,1), 4. Annalisa (3,7), 5. Geolier (3,7), 6. Ghali (3,3), 7. Irama (3,0)

As for tonight's voting there will be 100% televote after Amadeus has revealed the full raking from 1 to 30 based on votes gathered in all previous nights, including last night's covers night. Tonight's votes will be added to the total. Then the Top-5 will go for the superfinal, all votes will be zeroed and a new voting takes place with 34% televote + 33% radios + 33% media present in press center including papers, tv and web. 

Let's remind the last four nights rankings:
First night: Loredana Berté, Angelina Mango, Annalisa, Diodato, Mahmood
Second night: Geolier, Irama, Annalisa, Loredana Berté, Mahmood
Third night: Angelina Mango, Ghali, Alessandra Amoroso, Il Tre, Mr.Rain
Fourth night: Geolier, Angelina Mango, Annalisa, Ghali, Alfa 


Judging by pure mathematics Geolier has won two nights out of three, Angelina has placed in Top-3 in all 3 as had Annalisa but lower than Angelina, These three we can quite safely sat are in the superfinal. Then we have Loredana Berte with one win and one 4th place, Mahmood with two 5th places, Ghali with a3rd and a4th place. Random places for Irama, Diodato, Amoroso, Il Tre, Alfa and Mr.Rain. Irama will be strong in televote, as well as probably Mr.Rain. Then again we don't know the differences, who came 6th - could someone still push into the top-5 out of the blue? We'll see. And then the fun starts!

Fiorello will be finally allowed to the main stage tonight. Five year's ago he co-hosted the first night with Amadeus and even if he's been there every year more or less this is a full circle for the last year of Amadeus as we  know it. There's demand for him to go for the 6th year but so far he has said no. Just pay him eough and keep good thing going, Rai!
Eurovision winner Gigliola Cinquetti will be celebrating 60 years of Non ho l'età on stage.
Dancer Roberto Bolle and actor Luca Argentero will be guests, as well as Tananai on the outside stage and Tedua on the loveboat. 

The running order for tonight:

SONGS OF THE YEAR 2015: #5 KRISTA SIEGFRIDS - ON & OFF

Krista Siegfrids is delivering nice pop tunes one after another and this one is particularly catchy and soon you will be singing along..... Hopefully her Melodifestivalen entry will be equally good!

ESC 2016 WISH LIST: MARGARET FOR POLAND

Małgorzata Jamroży aka Margaret has also been tipped for Eurovision and apparently she did turn it down but she'd be perfect. She's got a look and persona you can't unnotice nor forget, she's got hit songs, she has been voted or nominated for everything from Trendy artist to the Hope of the Year, Fashion Icon and Glamour Woman of the year besides the usual best video, song, album, debut..... Oh she's also a fashion designer! She's very clever with social medias and would surely use it to her advantage if selected for Stockholm 2016. Her debut album is titled Add the blonde , do we need to say more? Except it includes mostly Swedish written pop tunes like Tell me how are ya , Wasted , Start a fire and Heartbeat . And of course her debut single and internationally noticed Thank you very much that you can enjoy below with all its anti-textil feel. I think she's Eurovision perfection, she's cheeky and fun, can we have her?

Rumors, rumors, rumors....

While the national selections for Junior Eurovision are going on around Europe and Ani Lorak's been confirmed as host all sort of rumors about the real thing are beginning to be the order of the day. Austria returns - or then not. Andorra stays home - or then not. San Marino returns - well, most likely but not surely. Luxembourg should make a come back - or then maybe not. Liechtenstein is still in the running - or has it ever been for real? Has the local TV ever confirmed anything? Is it just wishful thinking by the fans? Poland on the other hand has confirmed they will be in Oslo. And Italy will be still out. And apparently there will be no ban or such for Azerbaijan nor Spain for the irregularities in and after the 2009 edition. EBU had to change the text in the rules to make it sure nothing like that what happened in Azerbaijan could happen again. Or if it will they have means and rules to back up a ban or sanction.... Katerina Avgoustakis has been rumored to be in Oslo...

ESC 2016 BELARUS: NAKED WITH WOLVES?

Today's funniest Eurovision related story comes from Belarus. Some sources claim Ivan wants to perform on stage naked and with live wolf or wolves. It surely would be a first on Eurovision stage! We have seen some forgotten underwear over the years, and some cardbox animals though..... Is it time to take things a bit further?  No, according the rules live animals are not allowed, and Eurovision being a family show nudity won't do either. (It seems to be ok to be half naked if you are a dancer though..... )

JEDWARD GETS NAKED FOR THE FANS

Well, almost. The boys celebrated their 650.000th follower on Twitter by being photographed fresh from shower as promised. It's not the first time they drop their clothes as you see here . Meanwhile their second album is nearly here and the title track Young love is hitting the charts....

Regina Lund - naked and censored

Regina Lund's new video Jag är osynlig was censored by Youtube only minutes after it had been uploaded. In the video she was playing a female Jesus who gets crusified in the end. "I was shocked!" she says. "There's nothing more naked in it as in every church! It's ok to have naked man hanging on the wall but my nakedness is too much on internet? ". Oh well, no comment. She's prepairing a new album Dare Regina Lund and we of course remember her from her Melodifestivalen 2007 adventure with Rainbow star .

UK: Naked Blue

The boys of Blue have posed nude again. This time for the Attitude magazine's annual Naked issue and they are also in the cover. Watch the video of the shooting here . Band member Duncan, who is bi-sexual, recently told The Daily Star : “We are getting our kit off for Attitude magazine like the McFly boys did. I’m up for showing everything off. I’m happy enough about the size of my manhood. ” Extra media attention won't hurt their changes in Germany to win it for the UK for the first time since 1997... They will and they can!

EUROVISION 2026 - PORTUGAL: BANDIDOS DO CANTE WINS FESTIVAL DA CANCAO

Portugal's 60th Festival da Canção came to an end tonight and the winner is Bandidos do Cante.  Portugal's national selection for Eurovision song contest 2026 has been quite critical to the participation with most artists and/or songwriters declaring they won't go to Vienna should they win. In the end there are apparently only two artists who have declared they will go to Vienna, and one uncertain if they win. Let's see who eventually will go to Eurovision in the end.... Apparently Bandidos do Cante is one of those who have said yes. Read more here .  Bandidos de Cante was formed almost by accident by childhood friends singing Alentejo folk songs at dinner parties and such. The quintet is composed of Miguel Costa, Duarte Farias, Francisco Raposo, Luís Aleixo and Francisco Pestana, all natives of the municipality of Beja, except for Francisco Pestana, who is from Monte Trigo. After tone of those dinner gatherings they were invited to record vocals to D.A.M.A.'s Casa ...
