Some have aged well, some... well, not so well. After the 1976-77 editions that I have some uncertain memories, 1978 is the contest I remember almost too well watching. I remember our old house, how it was furnished, the people I watched it with.

MARCO MENGONI RELEASED NON PASSERAI

Marco Mengoni, besides being touring with sold out concerts in Italy, has had time to go to Paris and shoot a very beautiful video for his third single off the album #prontoacorrere , this blogger's favorite Non passerai . He presented the clip in TG1 telling that in the video he wanders around the streets of Paris with a box in his head and takes photos with smiling people. "Smile is something very important this year. This year has been all smiles for me, I just can't stop smiling! ".  The video suits the songs very nicely and continues the series of wonderfully shot videos after L'essenziale and Pronto a correre . Watch this smiley interview here .
