"a ballad will never win eurovision" except in 2019, 2017... i mean we italian had jazz 2011 (didn't win) ballad 2013 (didn't win) opera 2015 (didn't win cause of jury vote otherwise...) rap 2019 (didn't win) WE GOT IT. We will never win, it's ok, really :D at least we have the guts to sing in our own language. It's eurovision, not englishvision. and btw "spaghetti"? seriously? That's very rude, didn't expect something like this IN THIS CHANNEL. Peace and love.

"too slow for eurovision"... 2017: Portugal Winner.

Some people in this video are very rude and unrespectful

Diodato's revenge at Eurovision 2022! The best performance of the evening.

I'm Italian and proud of this song. Diodato explained the lyrics of this song and dedicated it to his city Taranto, which in Italy is practically the cradle of death and lives sacrificed because of the steel mills that destroyed a wonderful city. this song came at a perfect time, at a time when Italy needed hope. we screamed it, sung from the balconies and plant in silence. Diodato represents the classic Italian music that breaks your heart and I am sorry if more than someone finds this song boring, but ladies and gentlemen I cannot not listen to it without crying. Music is emotion. a wonderful voice. and we hope that after the highly deserved success of last year with the great mahmood we will be in the top 3 again. ♥ ️

I respect all the opinions of anyone but as an Italian I can say that this song was helpful for millions of people during the quarantine, so to say that it is boring does not seem right.

I'm sorry , but this song it's a big masterpiece. ❤

Saying he's copying Duncan Laurence, is that a joke partner? 😅 That's a traditional Italian love song such as have been in the charts for decades on the continent, laurence was just a pale Eurovision counterfeit of Gavin James? I'm all for non European reactors but at least a modicum of knowledge on our music should be a minimum thanks. This isn't the blasted superbowl or a night out in your favourite club but a seventy years old music contest, of all countries and all sorts. I'm not Italian but I would be raging at some of the ignorant comments. Well done Italy, for not sending some boring europop yet again and doing it YOUR way.

One thing I noticed in general, is how people lament they can't feel a song because they don't know what he is speaking about... I mean, I could grow attached to an english song even before I could speak it, there are a lot of things that make a song, not simply the words. I mean, I get not liking a song, but not so much not liking because you don't understand the words because you can just google it. It just says you're used to everything being catered to you and you can't step out of your little box.

Eurovision Hub: I don't like ballads Also Eurovision Hub when Duncan released the song : OMG MASTERPIECE Are you serious?

Gosh, most of you that think this is boring.... your opinion but this goes straight in the soul...And there is nothing more beautiful than that

So if it ain't trap, or has a big beat, or britney spears shows alike it means it's boring? I certainly doubt your taste and preparation in music guys.

oh my, i cannot believe more than half of these reactors find this song boring! Does every song in Eurovision have to be upbeat and poppy? It's a song contest, not a pop contest.

I'm so tired of everyone wanting upbeat and thrashy songs, always complaining about the more sentimental ones.

One thing is certain, I have not yet understood how some people can judge music, without having any competence and sensitivity.

As an Italian, I can say, it is much more important for our artists to win the Sanremo Festival than to win Eurovision. For us Italians, our festival has a greater importance than Eurovision. I don't mean that winning Eurovision is not important, but Sanremo is more important! After all, without the Sanremo Festival there would not even be Eurovision! : P

Guys, try to understand something, song contests like Sanremo (Italy), Festivali Këngës (Albania) have nothing to do with Eurovision, they select the winning song for their own country, their own culture, not to get a "representer" for a commercial show like Eurovision. In my opinion, they should change the way how to select their " representer" for Eurovision, like selecting Eurovision fan favourite or selecting televoting winner as a Eurovision representer. In addition, both Sanremo and Festivali i Këngës have more history and appreciation for real art than Eurovision.

The guys from Norway are a little disrespectful

Italy doesn't select songs for Esc, it's the winner of Sanremo representing our country. Sanremo is a 70 yrs old songs competition for which singers aim to compete to have visibility. I think we should have a different selection for Esc. Maybe in the future, for now it's Sanremo. Ok, it's a ballad and it will never win but Diodato deserved visibility. He's so humble, well educated and well mannered, never too loud. He deserved this rumore that is noise in English

and I WANT TO CLARIFY ONE THING ONCE FOR ALL: Sanremo is not a Eurovision selection but it's our (Italian) national music contest and it was created YEARS before the Eurovision so we don't choose a song thinking about the Eurovision, a lot of people even don't know what it is. Sanremo it's a long tradition, 70 years

KZfaqrs-Listeners: "I don't understand the lyrics, I don't speak Italian!" It's 2020, someone invented GOOGLE TRANSLATE!

Have to laugh at people who can't appreciate the beauty of a piano and a voice. No bumping beats, no dancing troupe with their asses sticking out. Just a classical, powerful, love ballad. Every listen gets better. :)

San Remo is the national song contest and not a selection for Eurovision

I admit that fai rumore Is not my favourite song from Sanremo (the italian competition from which every year the winner goes ti Eurovision) but it's a great ballad, Better than the others Who won in the previous years (Portugal, Israel...). Don't keep saying it's boring cause every year Italy brought to Eurovision different genre of music and every year we don't get the right attention we deserve cause North european countries vote for each other and so on. So instead of act like musical Expert think at your own Eurovision Song, cause if i m not wrong, UK and Spain in the previous years were judged as the worst ones. PS care ti sing in your language, not in english, cause it's not englivision.

Lmao, the ones that say this is outdated, slow, not eurovision material etc. You never know what may win for sure in Eurovision. We have seen Portugal win and Israel win. I mean a song that has a chicken sound in it vs a song that has no memorable chorus. They both won. So just say it is not my genre or just I don't like it and that's all instead of acting like music experts!

Spanish guy: "This song is perfect for Eurovision...1999"....Spain that in last years score more laughter than points ahahah Tell to norvegian "youtubers" that Sanremo exist before than ESC and the song is not chosen every year only for ESC as the entire europe. Go to fish salmons and bring it to us!

italy the most underrated country ever

Next time Norway will bring a song in their native language to ESC they will be entitled to make a joke about Italy's entry. Sorry, not sorry.

people just want to listen the same songs. On the radio they sounds all equal nowadays. So when you listen something different from the heart, slow, passionate, with quality singer and musicians it sounds different and you don't like it. Sad but true.

You can love or hate the song, but, in my opinion, the most important thing is be respectful. Some reactors were really rude and disrespectful. This is unacceptable for me. A big dislike

3 years on and still one of the best songs of eurovision. Winner any given year

Sometimes I dont understand how that girls can dislike it in the first few seconds. You should first actually listen instead of inmediately laughing and not listening to it even though you may not like it. Some people that say its dated. I dont agree with that. Its a ballad. Ballads are not dated. Although in these period of time many young people listen to musical bad music (its officially researched that tye music of the past years is getting worse and worse and then I mean the American music industry). It really depends what you are used to but I listen a lot of music from 60's, 70's even the 80's and some 90s and early 2000music (madonna for example) good music will always remain good even if its from the 60s. That does not matter. Greetz from Netherlands

Some of the guys there seem not to understand the difference between outdated and classic. You know, not everything has to be a light pop song. Otherwise Adele wouldn't have the success she has, and she sings mainly ballads. The guy who commented "non posso sopportare" implying that he can't stand him has not looked at the translation of the lyrics, which are beautiful and poignant. Diodato also combines this with a solid control of his voice, as he passes from singing with a belt voice to a falsetto, which is hard to do in succession. The two Norwegians were sneering quite a bit. We all have our preferred genres, but they gave the impression they already panned the song as soon as they put it into the classic ballad box.

Guys, this is a masterpiece.... I know that Elodie should have won because it’s a more Eurovision-style song, and we all know this... but this song, even without knowing the language is beautiful. I’m sorry if you disagree, but the simplicity and the emotion that he expresses are stunning ❤️

I love the Italian song. My favourite so far.

for the Norwegians and some English and Swedish ..... last year he won a trivial song from the Netherlands from sleep .... Italy brought with mahmood a sound 10 years ahead for Eurovision compared to the usual dance songs with special effects but he didn't win ..... in the last few years we have tried them all without ever getting anything .... so it is right to go back to our origins of the real melodic song ..... to win elodie would have been like bringing back mahmood ..for what? we would not have won the same .... and Sanremo which is the Mother of the Eurovision was not created for special effects and pleasure in northern Europe with scenography but was created for pleasure in Italy and having its own sound traditions ... without being equal to all.........real music is not just special effects printed on the monitors of a TV or arena. ... that passes and no one remembers it ...... real music is not just special effects printed on the monitors of a TV or arena. ... that passes and nobody remembers it ...... true music goes straight to the heart and soul and nobody forgets it ...... mahmood had no special effects .... it was his voice combined with musical notes to be a special effect enough to win numerous awards ..... and the Netherlands did not have this

If this song was performed not by Diodato but by, for example, Coldplay it would be played in all the radio stations in the world for months

This is not a regular ESC-style senseless dance number wrapped in plastic. I agree it’s a little old-school but that’s a traditional Sanremo song. In Italy when people watch Sanremo they don’t care about the ESC. It just happens that RAI (Italian broadcaster) uses the festival to select the representative for the ESC. Sanremo is a celebration of the Italian music and people choose and vote for the one that has a meaning and that gives you emotions. Elodie would have been perfect for Eurovision and the whole Europe would have listened to another Mahmood song but in the end he is going to Rotterdam and I think, no matter what, he will make us proud.

You can say you find it boring, as some commentators did here. I have no problem with opinions, but hearing the word “spaghetti” which was used a lot in the past in Northern European countries in reference to Italian immigrants is rude and racist, even if there was no intention. The fact that euro HUB has chosen these cuts and not others is an editorial choice that disturbs me

This is my #1 so far!

I loved Fai Rumore 💞 Good luck, Italy!

I don't care if foreign people don't like this song. For me it's so beautiful and he deserved it. And the Norwegians, l don't comment on them....

3 months later: Italy wins...

Can’t wait to see this song beat their faves 😇

This is like Duncan Laurence? What the heck did she even finish listening to all the song before coming to conclusions like that. Those two songs are nothing a like. Also don't understand why whenever there is slow ballad some of the reactors automatically go to snoozing mode. Kind off irritating because you already make automatic conclusions based on the genre of music. Another thing that bothers me, like if you don't speak Italian search up the lyrics regardless you don't need the lyrics to feel the emotion as he already carries that throughout the song very well. Not every song has to be in English for you to appreciate it. This has been a complete disaster some of these reactors were being quite disrespectful.

Such a good song, sooo underrated. I don't understand Italian but I can feel the soul and emotion definitely one of my favourite.

Remember guys, respect for my Italy and for our music. Last decade Italy was the country with the best second score. Only after Sweden that is always overrated in Esc. So Italy was the moral winner of last decade 2010-2019. In our way of life, music is feeling, hAppyness, soul not fire on the stage and twerking.

Hey guys, it's okay if you don't like this song, but I think it's a bit rude to say things like " do we have to finish listening to it?" or "zzzing" like that. I think we all have to respect the work behind every piece of art. Even though it's not the best song ever written, personally I like it for the feeling it gives me. The song isn't just about that " noise" a former lover could produce and bring into his life , it is also dedicated to the inhabitants of his hometown Taranto. The city is poisoned by the toxicity of a giant steel mill called Ilva. Workers have to decide wether to keep living without a job or getting it and die. He wants those people to " make noise" too and stand for their rights. Greetings from Italy :)

I think someone of you may be listening to a different song.. this song is beautiful. Top 5 for sure if not a winning entry..

I appreciated so much the people who had inquired about this song before, particularly the Belgian guy. And i think it is very important to know that the Italian singers that partecipate in Eurovision Contest are the same that win Sanremo Festival. When they partecipate in Sanremo they think about Sanremo Festival, the only target is to win the most important music contest for music in Italian language. Sanremo is not a contest to choose the Eurovision entry, this is only one of the results of the victory in Sanremo. And the Sanremo winner can refuse to partecipate in Eurovision, as it happened in 2016 for example. Sanremo Festival is much more important than Eurovision in Italy and Eurovision itself was born taking insipiration on Sanremo Festival ;)

I don't want be rude, but saying about this song that is bad and boring ?? Ofc its not everybody cup of tea but THIS song is 100000 better than spanish one ....#GrazieItaly 💛

I personally love Diodato with all my heart and I love the song and it's a breath of fresh air at Eurovision. Not every song needs to sound like the typical american pop song. Also, google the lyrics instead of just saying you don't understand.

I don't understand a thing. Why some of the reactor when they react to the spanish song are like "Woaw really good song wow this will stand in eurovision I love it" and litteraly the song don't have emotion , no hight note , no goosepumps nothing and after the first minute it became like boring or repettetive (english is not my native language sorry) And now you have a great power ballad with hight note , with a great build , with emotion and you treat this boring ? I don't understand why ? 🤔🤔

Man... what kind of music to people in Norway listen to? Diodato is amazing, finally a talented singer, with beautiful lyrics... no stupid distorted sounds or offensive rap, a jump back to the beautiful and romantic music that was written in the past. Love Diodato!!!!

This song is amazing.

Just a question: do you know the meaning of the word quality? God...

Katie and Chloe are always so lovely! Ballads are always divisive, aren't they? I think this is a beautiful song. The bridge and the ending just give me goosebumps.

Fai Rumore it's the best song so far

This song is way too good for ESC. Period.

The best song of this year, giving me goosebumps

I rispect your opinions, but this Is an amazing song, you should listen to it without talking and paying attention to it. And maybe readung the lyrics

Good job Italy, this was perfection.

This song is a masterpiece. That's all.

His voice is very beautiful and unique, a caress for the soul💕

As a French speaking Swiss I love this song so much more than our song this year. And that says a lot because I have our song on a good second. But that may be because I speak Italian as a second language and actually UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS SAYING

I can feel his soul when he sings. Well done Italy. 12 points 😉

A Song in the singer's native language is always better. Change my mind.

I love italy

Best song i've heard in years honestly. Wow

I am so happy Diodato is ESC competitor for Italy! His live singing skills are always been SO great and the lyrics so beautiful. Sorry for the ones that are too lazy to get it translated. Boring is really NOT the right word to describe this song. 🤨 Romantic and classy, instead, are. ✨🥰

Grande Diodato 😍❤️👍🏻 Per un italiano è un vero inno all’amore 🥰

The guys from Norway are really RUDE

just hope that people will read the lyrics of this song, that it may seem boring but it's still a very deep song, I just want to remember you that a lot of people that watch Sanremo, didn't even know about the existence of Eurovision, Italians don't vote for the perfect song for Eurovision, they vote for the best song, and "Fai Rumore" maybe it's just a little bit boring, but it's still an elegant and emotional song

Beautiful song! Sometimes simple song is all we need.

This is song is amazing.

Yet portugal in 2017 was even more slowly than this and .... it just won Remember these words.

This is the best song ever in esc 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Guys….Andromeda was medíocre….Diodato´s "Fai Rumore" is a natural eurovision Top 3!..and my favorite so far!

Forza Italia 🔥🔥👏

the best Song this year. Fai Rumore Italia

You all want English songs. Grow up. English is not the only language in the world! And I can assure you it isn't even close to the most beautiful language. I study linguistics.

This is Italian Style ,this is Italian Culture singing in Englisch is blablabla.

Mahmood didn’t win even though the modern rhythm and the lyrics so The philosophy of "need a song to dance" is not correct

So many different reactions. 😄 that's great though. I liked the song. It's pulling on my heart strings and I'm here for it.

This song is very polarizing: some love it while some others hate it.

They didnt even give the song a chance. The moment the reactions went wrong is when they started comparing it to past entries and to entries they clearly have biases with. Sometimes you really have just to accept other peoples opinions and live with the fact that theyre wrong.

Simply beautiful!!! Enough said!!👏👏👏👏

Norway lots of good songs obviously!!😡

3:08 is she serious?

I'm sorry but I just don't like Alesia's attitude, not only in this video but in every single of her appearances.

Fantastic Song 🇮🇹❤️❤️

Big song, great voice, a winner!

I think this song is wonderful. It wasn't my favorite (that was Ringo Starr), but I do enjoy it a lot and can see it doing quite well at Eurovision. Great work, Italy!

I’m just curious to know how’s your reaction to the actual performance for Eurovision in Arena di Verona. You’re lying if you say you didn’t cry ❤️

Hello! Just to make it clear once for all: Sanremo ISN'T a national selection for ESC. The "Festival di Sanremo" was created in 1951 and was the main inspiration for the ESC which saw the light 5 years later. We don't follow any pattern or formula whatsoever in order to be appealing to the Eurovision's standard (if there is one...). This song also won the two critics prizes aka the Mia Martini and Lucio Dalla prizes. - Ps: it wasn't even in my top 5 but I'm soooo happy for Diodato 'cause he's a good songwriter and musician, blessed with a beautiful voice 🙂 Peace and good luck to all the contestants!

Some really liked it and some others hated it 😂. I think that it will be the same thing in Eurovision too: it's either going to do REALLY GOOD or REALLY BAD. The only thing that I have to say is that people should stop judging a song for the first 10 seconds... it really says something about the attention span nowadays

Great reaction everyone! It's so exciting to be at this stage where more and more songs are starting to be released! Quote of the video: Iago: 'maybe a lot of people don't think this, but a lot of people are going to be voting for this; so ark these words!" Honestly think that sums this up perfectly! It's a quality song, I'm not yet fully into it, but I appreciate the emotion and passion behind it.

Song is really good, I don't know what is wrong with it

This can be appreciated by people who know history of San Remo and Italian canzona, but some who know nothing will not get it.
