Italy 2021: Måneskin - Zitti e buoni + Global Domination

[Apoca]

The full performance is up. This is so easily Top 5, if not winning:

 

[LoooooOOOOOooooOOOooocille]

Yeah it's incredible, and the performance is LEAGUES above most of what we saw tonight.

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

This looks incredible, and he/they just DRIP swagger and charisma.

My only thing is it might be a bit too HARD to pull through as a winner - even Hard Rock Hallelujah was a pop song underneath it all.
It would be quite a fabulous statement if it does win though

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

I really think it will unify a voting block across the continent that not a single one of the pop bangers will.

 

[LoooooOOOOOooooOOOooocille]

Yeah this and Ukraine (and also maybe France) have the advantage that there is nothing else like them in the competition (I'm ignoring Finland which feels very AMATEUR in comparison)

For anyone interested in digging into the back catalogue, may I suggest:







Damiano and the rest get their tits out briefly in this one:

 

[Diddy]

I don’t snort coke
I just feel sorryyyy

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

Utterly DISGUSTED to find out the lead singer was born in 1999 - and even worse, the rest all in 2000 or 2001!

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

He's getting tested THIS MORNING.

Live on Italian TV please.

 

[COB]

Would cocaine still be in his system after two days? I have no idea how it works.

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

I seem to recall it's about 3 days.

 

[Una Kratz per San Marino]

Hope he gets the requisite apology - really sad attempt by goodness knows who to take the shine off his win.

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

They looked quite SAD on BBC Breakfast this morning .

 

[Diddy]

They looked quite SAD on BBC Breakfast this morning .

because they didn’t get to perform? So close yet so far

Comedowns suck

 

[GNL]

*screams in Italian*

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

I feel like they have the best chance of an afterlife of any winning act for a while. They very much fit into a teen idol model, for those who like a little more edge. Sexy boys, relatable girl, with a wink of sexual fluidity.

 

[COB]

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

GOOD!

But WHAT PROMO!

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

They didn't even need to pay for cocaine for that degree of media attention.

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

My god - I can't believe those dork zoomers have NEVER DONE COKE!

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

at the EBU calling it 'fake news' - the only story anyone reported was that there was SPECULATION they'd done coke ffs!

 

[Laß diemlaw Sonne in dein Herz]

NOW TEST THE MOLDAVIAN DELEGATION.

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

In more thrilling news for them, they're #12 on UK Spotify and #9 worldwide.

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

#7 on iTunes (behind Tix, Dadi and James)

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Hope he gets the requisite apology - really sad attempt by goodness knows who to take the shine off his win.

I blame the FRENCH! Hi @Dark Carnival

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

Oh my god, this is going to be an actual UK HIT!

I have seen a ridiculous number of TikToks about them, particularly Damiano. He ticks all the boxes for girls that fancy Harry Styles or Chalamet, but with a bit more edge.

HOLY SHIT - actually top 5 on UK streaming when you consider it's got 8 Olivia Rodrigo tracks above it (only three of which can count towards the charts) and 2 that are on ACR!

Absolutely. Twitter is dripping over him.

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

Absolutely. Twitter is dripping over him.

I wonder how many people are aware he was born after Geri left the Spice Girls. I managed to horrify two of my friends who'd been unabashedly lusting by dropping that one into the convo.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Hun it's not just Twitter that's dripping over hi..

I wonder how many people are aware he was born after Geri left the Spice Girls.

Oh.

 

[GNL]

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22 is still well beyond the bounds of noncery.

 

[win_the_game]

Maybe not but it's a reminder that I'm rapidly heading towards the age of DADDY territory.

YEP, I know it's only been 2 days but it really feels like QUITE an iconic moment for the contest - especially compared to Duncan (did anybody care until he resurfaced on TikTok?) and Netta (quickly shoved in the novelty box).

I'm not expecting much in the UK past this week, but I can see them having a strong European career if they play it right. And those outfits are going to be referenced in Eurovision legend FOREVER!

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

I have no problem lusting over an unachievable 22 year old in his prime!

If he didn't want to be looked at, he wouldn't be on TV with his tits out!

Yeah, through gritted teeth I'm slowly having to come around to the idea they're absolutely great winners for the contest.

 

[Penelope Will Rave]

God, that last sentence in @AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA's post just made me realise a lot of us will probably live to see Eurovision turn 100

Wonder how many more wins Sweden will have racked up by then. Or if we'll have had ANY MORE AT ALL

 

[Poor SertAg (39)]

It's a HIT



Note it making small waves in Turkey. Clearly Eurovision still has a market there. That's a glimmer of hope.
