Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

 

Sicilian tenor turned pop Lorenzo Licitra (25) won against all odds the 1th Italian X Factor beating in the final Måneskin lead by bad boy Damiano, who were expected to win after they already gained quite a following and even sold a gold disc before the final with Chosen .  Which one do you prefer? X Factor in Italy has give us winners Marco Mengoni, Francesca Michielin, Chiara, Michele Bravi and Lorenzo Fragola among others, and also Giusy Ferreri and Madh, so chances are we will hear about Licitra a lot in the future, and Måneskin also has its reasons to stay in spotlight.  I don't know why but I think Lorenzo screams EUROVISION!!!

Chiara is sort of a fan favorite and many wish her for Eurovision song contest. Let's have a look what she's been up to.  Chiara Galiazzo (30) is another X Factor winner. Her debut single Due respiri (#1) was co-written by Eros Ramazzotti. The debut album Un posto nel mondo (#2) included also Il futuro che sará (#16), Mille passi with Fiorella Mannoia (#28) and Vieni con me (#28).   Her second album Un giorno di sole (#4) included Un giorno di sole (#73) and Il remedio, la vita e la cura that failed to chart. The album was re-released after her Sanremo participation with Straordinario (#7) with bonus track single Siamo adesso (-).  This is her third Sanremo after L'Esperienza dell'amore and Il futuro che sarà in 2013. The latter went to final and placed 8th. In 2015 she was back with Straordinario that placed 5th. This year she's back with Nessun posto è casa mia (No place is my home). Her third album with the same title is ready for release. ...
