Ready, let’s go. The afternoon starts shortly before 9 pm. There is applause (they are recorded. “It encourages me to know that they are yours from home”), the audience does not. It is strange to see the Ariston so empty. Amadeus comes downstairs with excitement in his eyes, crosses himself and reads the end of a letter he has sent to a newspaper. “Sanremo I did it with everything myself and the help of many people, with more strength and determination than last year. Respecting all the rules, thinking of those who live from music, television and entertainment. Thinking of the real country struggling to find itself. We discovered that normality is something extraordinary, just to have a bit of that normality we work in an extraordinary way. Today San Remo starts again with singers and songs, with the orchestra, with journalists, with everyone ”.
CHRONICLE NOW FOR NOW
00.30 – Friends, it has been assured and the story still seems long. Too long. Mistress, as a small silent protest, let’s go to sleep. We read in the morning
00.25 – Sings Ghemon: Your song is not a hit, but it always looks good. Fiorello and Amadeus remember DJ Claudio Coccoluto, who passed away today at the age of 58. Advertising, then the much-needed Tg1 updates. Four singers are still missing.
00.15 – The Amadeus search for promotions in the Liguria region does not go unnoticed. “I would like to deny the creatives: after the third song nobody fell asleep,” he says on the air. A true caffeuccio, to quote d’Urso. But (re) here is Ibra. “As long as Zlatan is around, everything will be under control. The problem will be tomorrow, I will not be ”. In fact, tomorrow the Milan player (injured) will have to follow the team. He quotes Maria De Filippi, takes breaks like Celentano: kills the rhythm. Even on Twitter it is difficult to find comments in their favor. “But are these terrible jokes with Zlatan really necessary?”, “The embarrassment with these lines from Zlatan is unbearable.”
00.03 – A background kiss, the one photographed by Víctor Jorgensen, allows a Matilda De Angelis propose a monologue on the concept of kissing. “I was thinking that for a year, such a sudden and wonderful kiss cannot be done. It was my daily life. I miss him so much. It is a desire that we have, instead we have to stay with the brakes on. The kiss is the only action that the human being performs in which the five senses intervene ”. It follows a kind of lesson from the actress to Amadeus. Nice, but maybe too long. After the publicity, it is the Maneskin who return the rhythm. Damiano, the leader of the gang, is determined to be envied. “People don’t know what the hell they’re talking about,” he sings. The wigs would have impressed audiences with this performance.
23.45 – The race continues with Lady. This is one of his first major occasions, but his performance is vocally flawless. Good very good!
23.30 – When Fiorello arrives, a breath of lightness arrives (we need it). “We are like the father: deficient at distancesa “. The gag is on the toes. With Amadeus, then, sing“ If tonight I’m here ”in tribute to Luigi Tenco. Soon after, here it is Achille Lauro. There was great anticipation for his performance. Her dress mixes sequins, glitter and feathers. On social media they write: “Is that all?” Perhaps we expected more … “We are speechless, the feathers remain”, ironically the conductors on stage, accompanied by Ibra. For the first time, they meet Zlatan and Fiorello (but they don’t do their best, for now). “If you touch it, you hurt yourself,” says the comedian.
23.10 – Max Gazzè dressed as Leonardo Da Vinci. With it, there is the Trifluoperazine Monstery Band, or the hardcover books of historical figures like Jimi Hendrix, Marylin Monsore, Queen Elizabeth. An Elio-style performance and tense stories: it works and it amazes. From Amadeus comes the call for the release of Patrick Zaki, the activist in prison in Egypt: a holy and righteous moment! But the race continues with Naomi (who replaced Irama at the last minute): with “Glycine “ hit with one performance scream. Aim for the podium.
22.55 – Loredana Bertè arrives, and here’s the first karaoke moment of the night. The winter sea, I am not a lady, you are beautiful: a medley worthy of singing, received with a standing ovation (1994, via archival video). Next to her, on stage, there is a pair of red shoes as a symbol of the fight against femininity. Amadeus calls it a “silent slaughter.” Loredana: “At the first slap you have to report.” Loredana greets the public with her new single: “Daughter of“. A song on the Elettra Lamborghini, sung in lip sync.
22.40 – The contest continues with “the most beautiful couple in pop”, this is how they present themselves. The couple is the one that is formed by Fedez and Francesca Michielin, joined by a white ribbon: the chorus remains in the lead. At the end of the performance they hug and he is almost moved.
22.30 – as well Aiello brings excitement (and somewhat jarring). Amadeus continues with the necessary references to the pandemic: “Since you must never forget last year, we can never avoid forgetting about the mask. I’m lucky because people like me don’t wear it all day, luckily when I work in a TV studio I’m lucky to be able to take it off. Someone had to wear this mask for 12 or 15 hours a day. ” The reference is to the hospital sector, in fact here Alessia Bonari, the nurse symbol of the fight against Covid. A photo of him with his face marked by the mask went around the world. “We must not lower our guard, together we will surely succeed,” his words. Amadeus reveals that he has spoken with Minister Speranza, who has asked to send an important message from the San Remo stage: to get out of it you have to help out.
22.10 – The seconds in the race are Colapesce e Dimartino. A song with an eighties sound, which everyone considers as a potential winner of this edition: will it be able to enter the hearts of the spectators? On stage with them there is also a skater. But here is Ibra, of whom so much has been said. “It is an honor to be here, but it is also an honor for you to have me. Normally I feel big, powerful, but here I feel small … but yesalways bigger and more powerful than you, AmadeusHis first words. He jokes with Ama about his role and that he is the one who makes the rules.
22.00 – Ready, go. When there are a few minutes to 10 p.m., the race begins (finally!). Arisa is the first. Very excited, her eyes sparkle with excitement. The song is written by Gigi D’Alessio: she starts out insecure, then explodes and makes her vocal power felt. After her, here’s tonight’s prima donna: the actress Matilda (and not Matilde) By Angelis, fresh from the international success of “Undoing“:” Good night armchairs, good night public pajamas at home. It was enough for me to throw Naomi Campell down the stairs and here I am ”. Pretty, spontaneous, good: we like it.
21.40 – The Festival comes to life with a moment of variety. Fiore, Ama and the feather-covered dancers: the two sing a new song, a kind of musical theme. They also make fun of the cruise: “They also took the cruise, but you feel the atmosphere. A dream come true, welcome back to the Festival ”. “We are the new Brian and Garrison”, the words of Fiorello. Jokes about Draghi, still jokes on the couches. We also laughed at an anecdote told by the comedian about how Amadeus called him to remake the Festival this year: “It was August 20, I was about to enter the water. He tells me that Paolo Fox called him …“. But it depends on Diodat, the first guest of the night. Amadeus: “That with him is the last happy image of a country that would have been locked up in a few days. We want to recover that joy ”. Sings “Make noise”, The song he won last year and he’s so excited it’s a bit off the mark.
21.25 – The last one to perform is Folcast. Before the arrival of the envelope, Fiore jokes about the sexuality of Achille Lauro: “You heard he said that Is it all sexually? I am half. Then we will ask you… ”. The envelope with the result comes with the usual cart, which will bring many gags to life. Folcast and Gaudiano spend their turn.
21.10 – Start the race with him New proposals. Gaudiano it is the first one. Elena Faggi the second. Its director is the maestro Beppe Vessicchio, a regular presence at the Festival. With her, Fiorello makes a joke for the San Remo flower delivery. He loves: “I can’t touch them, the 75 pages of the protocol say so.” The showman delivers them with a cart: “Nobody touched them, you don’t even know how they got here.” Avincola, the third New Proposal, arrives on stage with a balloon.
21.03 – But the Festival, says Amadeus, cannot start without Fiorello. “My friend, our friend “. She walks downstairs in a flowered dress (“it’s Achille Lauro’s bathrobe”), lipstick, trapstar glasses, and black nail polish (“This is a dark brown Morgan, they left it in the dressing room”). Sings Thank you for the flowers in a rock version, other than Nilla Pizza. “We wanted to do something strong, I did it just for you, Mistress“. Gag di Fiore on the empty chairs:“ These chairs will give me so much satisfaction, it’s the first time you’ve seen the Festival. Arms up, arms down: you never got to see the festival. There has always been someone with you. They got the worst part of being human. As it is called? Buttocks? No, you must go through customs. Ass you have to say it. They saw Giletti’s ass, Coletta’s ass… There is a saying: an armchair without an ass is like Zingaretti without d’Urso ”.
