  • Hi guys, and welcome back to my channel! If you're new here, my name's Rachel and I'm a huge Eurovision fan :) In today's video, I reacted to for the first time, the winning entry to Sanremo 2022 which has been selected for Eurovision, 'Brividi', or 'Chills' by Mahmood and Blanco.
    This is Mahmood's second time at Eurovision, after placing as the runner up in 2019, and this time he is back with a duet partner 'Blanco' who is a 19 year old up and coming artist in Italy.
    When reacting to 'Brividi', the thing that struck me the most was the beautiful melody line, which was soaring and vulnerable, especially felt in the chorus. There's interesting changes and experimentations with rhythms and motifs which beautifully compliment the Italian language. Mahmood and Blanco's voices blend together like a creamy sauce. The simplicity of the accompaniment was so effective, with a stripped back acoustic layout of a piano, bass, drums, and shimmering strings. The poetic lyrics, with imagery of a diamond bicycle were an interesting and intriguing addition to the song as a whole. The song does need to be cut down to 3 minutes, which could be risky and cause some disjunct sections. Some of the vocal production needs to be tweaked to allow both voices to be heard at the same level. However, all of these things said, I think Italy have once again presented us with a quality song, which refuses to bow down to the expectations and pressures of a 'Eurovision song' and instead shows us authenticity, and beauty.
    Initial Score: 9.5/10

    I think foreigners find our choices weird for Eurovision because they start from the hypotesis that we choose songs to send to the Eurovision, but it's not like that. For us Italians, Sanremo is way more important than Eurovision; we are not choosing the song to send to Eurovision, but the song which deserves to win Sanremo. We're crowning Sanremo's pearl and celebrate this amazing festival. For us Sanremo's week is holy and magical.
    Eurovision is just like a bonus, but Sanremo definitely has our hearts. Hope it makes sense now

    Blanco is 18 and the youngest male to ever win Sanremo. He started making music only recently, during the first pandemic and started on his own, he’s crazy ahaha but extremely talented and I love his voice. I think their voices are just perfect together, which is not that simple.

And the second time through it is unique and beautiful, but more importantly my brain loves it, and I want to hear it again. That just doesn’t happen with 99% of Eurovision type stuff for me.
    Thanks Rachel for confirming that I’m not an outlier. And, yes Italy again, never in my wildest dreams did I expect to be obsessed with Italian musicians like Maneskin.

      Randolph, do remember that songs for San Remo are created all but ignoring ESC conventional Wisdom.. It is the Festival of Italian Song after all. THe winner isnt even obligated to go, it's a right of first refusal. See 2016: Stadio (band) won, but had too many concerts in conflict, so they passed the ESC invite to Francesca Michielin (who took 2nd again last year, and this year showed up as CONDUCTOR for Emma Marone, and permed the duet with her - Britney Spears of all thing!).

    In "Brividi" two boys, belonging to two generations, love with the same enthusiasm and the same fears - the fear of making mistakes and feeling inadequate, unable to convey what one feels - and with the desire to love in total freedom giving all of himself .
    The "romantic" vision (" I dreamed of flying with you / On a diamond bike") and the more realistic and passionate one ("you, who stain the bed with wine / you, who bite my skin") of love are united by the desire to live a pure and all-encompassing feeling, breaking down barriers, in complete freedom.
    The song itself contains in part all the meanings of the word "shivers": from that caused by the cold to the feverish one of passion. But the most obvious pivot remains that of fear that generates insecurity. Like the fear of being inadequate for love and for the loved one. A fear that the Mahmood tells from his more mature point of view and perhaps also because of this "wounded" by experience. The same fear sung by the younger Blanco, this time with a still enchanted gaze although the fear remains that of loneliness.

      well, it hasnt truly hurt them at al lsince their return in 2011; 2014 poor performance was basically overproduction/overstaging, and 2016 was again overstaging (flawless song tho). Other than those two they have been kicking major ass since returnign, and are now duking it out with Sweden for dominance (Ireland who?). I dont see Ireland or UK ever challenging againas long as the dinosaurs in charge of RTE and BBC are still around. RTVE (Spain) finally said "f**k this" and threw everything out and started again with BEnidorm Fest this year, and look what we got as a result? Germany also needs a major rethink.

    Yes, unlike other countries, Italy doesn’t choose a song expressly for the ESC. The Sanremo winner is entitled to go there, but they don’t write the song for it. They don’t even write it specifically for Sanremo often.
    The lyrics of this song are very poetic and it would be a pity if they don’t come through at the ESC because they’re in Italian. Mahmood and Blanco are considering to sing at least part of the song in English, but they haven’t decided yet.

      Because "Ciao Ciao" is what we Italians have been wanted for years: we have plenty of great songwriter, young, talented, making beautiful music and poetry... But rarely they make "easy music", and it's quite...mmh... challenging listening to their music.
      La Rappresentante di Lista (which usually do nice but weird stuff) decided to bring in Sanremo a real indie pop / funky / dance funny piece, very catchy, very international, but which is...not funny at all... :D :D :D
      It's an angry song, filled with status quo rebellion, like Dargen D'Amico's "Dove si balla".

    Amazing...your reaction is precious for us..we can understand how an Italian song could enter into a mind,a soul,of a foreigner..,u always read and comprehend the meaning..I hope it would be the same at Eurovision...I think mahmood deserves something more than the second place for the songs he did in these years..and Blanco is 18 years old my god...thanks from Italy

I'm Italian, I watched all the Sanremo contest and this was my personal winner since the first listen. I've been a fan of Mahmood since he won Sanremo in 2019 and I'm discovering Blanco now. Keep reacting to Italian music. I watched all your Maneskin reactions and am happy you like them as well

    My winner. But then Italy usually is. At a first listen, in Sanremo, it didn't quite captivate me as I expected, because I adore Mahmood and I had heard one or two things from Blanco and it pleased me. Then, the video, over and over, the lyrics, the instrumentation. The Netherlands has actually come close to the top, but I am totally enchanted by this now. It is great when a song can have so many universes within that you can be amazed again and again. Hope Italy gets the double win. They should have won so many times before.

    "Brividi" is my favourite song of Sanremo2022, I've liked it since their very first live performance on Tuesday night: it's kind of captivating and heartbreaking at the same time, their voices together are something out of this world... words can't describe what I felt that night, and what I feel every time I listen to this masterpiece: just chills (= English for "Brividi")!

    If you’re interested in listening to blanco you should definitely listen to “lucciole” “notti in bianco” “blu celeste” “paraocchi” “bianco paradiso” he’s only 18 and you can feel all the energy that he has to give in his songs, it’s even better if you understand the lyrics, but the rhythm will make you jump no matter what! At the same time he can make you emotional, like in “blu celeste” which is a song dedicated to his dead brother and it’s completely different from his usual. I hope you react to him💙

  • @donatellaborciccibelloni5328

    this is by far the most interesting reaction. When people know what they are talking about it is always satisfying. :) Now you have to start to watch the megahits of Blanco "notti in bianco" "la Canzone nostra" "Mi fai impazzire" "Blu Celeste". He's 18 and is the best selling artist of 2021, far more than maneskin. His blend of punk pop is quite interesting, funny and highly satisfying and he's also great in slow and dramatic ballads. It's because of him if Mahmood is having success again after a string of flops

  • @DanInMUC
    @DanInMUC Před 2 lety +5

    Out of all the reactions, yours is the one I feel closer to. Thank you for mentioning the complexity of the chords and chord progression.
    This song was my personal winner since their first performance at Sanremo. I don't know how many times I've listened to it already, but there's still something that crawls underneath my skin and gives me goosebumps each time. Especially when the strings enter again in the third chorus after the acappella part.
    I don't know if they will win the Eurovision, but I'm so proud they won Sanremo (which is a contest of its own and totally independent from the ESC), and I'm even more proud Italy will present a non-standard, top quality, class-act song to Europe.

  • @francescogiovannizollo2989
    @francescogiovannizollo2989 Před 2 lety +18

    Hi, I’m Italian. Thank you so much for your reaction. I think the main reason why Italy always surprises Eurovision fans is that the songs are not designed for Eurovision at all. Since 2015, they have to come per regulation from the Sanremo Music Festival, which isn’t just a national selection: in Italy, it’s the most important musical event of the year, and often considered the showcase for the contemporary Italian music scene. It is older than Eurovision (which began 5 years later) and much more followed by Italians themselves! Moreover, the winning song is designated by two different professional juries and a televoting, so the standards are always very high!

It isn't meant to select the song for Eurovision, but it's the most important music festival in Italy since the 50's. The winner has the choice to participate in Eurovision or not. It's a very important distinction for us Italians 😉

    Dearest Rachel,
    1) Thanks, very thanks, as usual I don't know if I'm more excited by the beauty of the song or by the passion of your reactions. ..Your highest quality, and that you are able to express in words, with your competence and your passion for music, what I honestly would not be able to express, if not with emotions
    2) very important. you asked about Blanco .. he must turn 19, and he writes and sings from God ... (as a class and category, in my opinion, we are on the same level as Damiano) .. his album "Blu celeste" the first days that it is released a few months ago, it was in the first three places of the Spotify world chart.This album is a gem for me ...
    an absolutely unexpected find, and absolutely adored among young people in Italy.
    3) his lyrics are incredibly new, honest, a "true" writing, not rhetorical, deserves your listening
    czcams.com/video/EA58w_cxAAg/video.html this is the Blu Celeste link, I would love to hear this song, and the album, and have your reaction. Ciao!
