Italy 2022 - Mahmood & Blanco - Brividi

[Kratz]

Mind you remember when they pretended to be Russian teenagers and performed at Eurovision 2014?

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Have they been sanctioned yet?

 

[GinAg (39)]

Poland is more likely to win that this.

 

[GinAg (39)]

And no one has ever said that about Poland ever.

 

[Soldi]

I think some the appeal might lie within wanting him up oneself, which I most certainly don't

Some of us have followed his music since Sanremo 2019 THANK YOU

 

[Saltwater]

AI art on Brividi!

 

[Soldi]

Italy draw their running order tomorrow. Praying they get a pimp slot to annoy the Brividi haters

 

[Penelope]

Praying for FIFTH

 

[Soldi]

Praying for FIFTH

Austria and Russia have both finished third from performing fifth in recent years so that wouldn’t be too bad.

I take it this didn't happen?

 

[Soldi]

Who knew the meeting lasted over two days?

Let‘s go with tomorrow (and don’t you dare quote me Pingu )

 

[D5K]

Who knew the meeting lasted over two days?

It was actually supposed to last 45 minutes but they let the Italians organise it.

If a Brividi hater is anyone who doesn't get why this song is supossed to be so good, count me in. I don't mind it, but I don't get the obsession with it.

Oh babes, some queens are trying to make Brividi this year’s Telemoveis, when it’s really just… Sister

Wasn’t Sister that year’s Telemoveis?

[Apoca]

I get it @Soldi you just want to be the one, erm, harmonising with Mahmood.

 

[GNL]

 

[GNL]

What a STRANGE publicity shot.

 

[D5K]

Interesting; they can definitely win from there but it opens things up slightly.

 

[Pingu]

Shit I forgot to bet on Cornelia. I’d imagine her odds will narrow now.

 

[Iguana]

Shit I forgot to bet on Cornelia. I’d imagine her odds will narrow now.

I bet on her 20 minutes ago without realising this draw had happened! What were her odds before?

 

[Saltwater]

The same.

 

[VoR]

Longest I saw was around 14/1 shortly before she won Melfest.

 

[Debbie Jellinsky]

I've only just watched this performance, this is very Armie Hammer vs Timothée Chalamet (without any cannibalism), no?

 

[Alla]

What a STRANGE publicity shot.

Yeah, first time I see.them fully clothed.

 

[Lucille]

It’s very “KEEP YOUR DISTANCE TWINK”

 

[Soldi]

Well that’s not a bad draw at all. I’m surprised by the dreadful fans acting as if it’s the death knell of it’s chances, when you consider they’ll obviously put crud either side (which will build nicely to another favourite getting the pimp slot at the end of the half).

There’s also been Måns winning from 10th in a field of 27th, Conchita and Salvador from 11th too.

 

[Apoca]

A winner wins from anywhere.

(Expect for 2008 and 2011)

 

[Jacques]

Oh shit, 9th position is what killed James Newman's hopes.

Three minute version

 

[dUb]

Still a STUNNER of a song

 

[dUb]

I don't appreciate that reaction @Dark Carnival

 

[win_the_game]

They cut the intro out.

 

[Soldi]

I don't appreciate that reaction @Dark Carnival

I believe Dark Carnival is evil.

 

[Pingu]

I think the a capella start really works. And I’d far rather they lost the intro then butchered the main part of the song.

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Are we still hating on Brividi? Even MAHMOOD HERSELF is sick of this song now

 

[Soldi]

I don’t really see it winning anymore though () I think it’s going to be between Ukraine/Sweden/Greece.

 

[Kratz]

Would this be more tolerable without Mahmood? He sounds like he needs a lemsip (and BLANCO really sings him off the stage).

I don’t actively dislike it, the main hook of the chorus is quite nice, but Italy could have done so much better in a host year and just had some fun with Ciao Ciao. This won’t win and that would be fine if it wasn’t so contrived to win.

 

[win_the_game]

Cutting 30 seconds of his musical NASALITY wouldn't have been the worst choice
