BIRTHDAY: Fabrizio Moro from Italy is 45 today If you could put money on the next country of the Big Five to win, who would you pick? Germany was the last of them to win, but that was a long time ago now. But that leaves Spain, France, […]
BIRTHDAY: Emma Marrone from Italy is 36 today Our friends in Italy have done fairly well since they can back from exile. Seven top 10 finishes in their last nine attempts, including two runner-up spots. Which other of the Big Five can boast that record? Of course, for […]
BIRTHDAY: Tonina Torrielli from Italy is 86 today Even though we were looking forward to a riotous cavalcade of quality song in Rotterdam in May, looking at the present isn’t what we always do here. It’s good to look at the past. After all, there were contests in […]

ITALY: Sanremo Grand Final blog #joinus from 20.45 CET Italy’s festival of music in the Teatro Ariston comes to a conclusion tonight with the Grand Final. The winner will probably go on to represent their country in Rotterdam in May. However, the Grand Final is an interesting affair […]
