Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

The final to choose the six finalist of Sanremo Giovani 2021 and revelation of the two AreaSanremo finalists who earned the ticket to the festival took place last Thursday. Hu got full points from the in studio panel and shared the first place with Wrongonyou but the televoters didn't warm up to her who placed her second to last! On the other hand I Desideri won the televote (Viva Napoli!) but the jury placed them last and it was Ciao e arrivederci for the brothers. The third set of votes came from the commission and were not public but one can suppose they are in line with the studio panel.  Greta Zuccoli - Ogni cosa sa di te (panel 28 + televote 11,98%)  11,68% Folcast - Scopriti (28 + 11,81)  11,62% Gaudiano - Polvere da sparo (29 + 10,71)  11,38% Avincola - Goal! (24 + 10,64)  10,72% Wrongonyou - Lezioni di volo (30 +7,26)  10,33% Davide Shorty - Regina (25 + 13,55)  9,95% Hu - Occhi Niagara (30 + 5,80)  9,83% I Desideri - Lo stesso ciel...

  Sanremo Giovani will take place tonight and by the end of the evening we will know the lucky ones who will get to the stage of Teatro Ariston in March, including the two from AreaSanremo selection. And that's not all: also all the 26 Big artists will be revealed tonight along with their song titles. And they all will be also present in the studio! I'm team Gaudiano, Folcast e Greta.  M.e.r.l.o.t - Sette volte Wrongonyou - Lezioni di volo Greta Zuccoli - Ogni cosa sa di te Le Larve - Musicaeroplano Gaudiano - Polvere di sparo I Desideri - Lo stesso cielo Hu - Occhi Niagara Avincola - Goal! Folcast - Scopriti Davide Shorty - Regina

The third episode of AmaSanremo took place last Thursday and with the already familiar formula two more entries made the Sanremo Giovani final in December. Once again the in studio jury didn't quite agree with the televoters as they put the televote winner I Desideri last, and their winner Sissi came last in the televote. This said it was expected as I Desideri already have a devoted fan base.  Malika Ayane was the musical guest of the evening. She came second in the Newcomers 2009 behind Arisa, and the year later got the orchestra in Teatro Ariston protesting and throwing their notes in the air and booing when she didn't make the top-3 thanks to televote. She did place third in 2015.  You can watch the episode here  and the results of the previous episodes here and here . Gaudiano - Polvere da sparo scored 37 from the in studio panel and 39,43% from the televote and won the evening. He was my favourite, too. The song is catchy and a nice mix of many things, a bit Kendj...
