    OMG I woke up dreading to read that he didn't win!!!!

    This is my number 1 and it will take something very exceptional to beat it.

    :yeah:Rome 2018 :yeah:

    I couldn't agree more, Mina. :)

    According to Luca Chiaravalli author and producer and orchestra condutor of the Italian song, besides shortening the song by 36 seconds, I quote:

    “We will make some changes and insert some parts in English because the audience could not understand the meaning of the lyrics all the way. The ape put in that way might seem silly. Our goal is to make the meaning of the song understandable, even to those unfamiliar with our language”.

    Well I think the final chorus in English would be OK. If people actually listen to the words, even if they don't speak Italian, there should be enough they can understand to get the gist of the song: intelletuali, internettologi, selfisti, Chanel (although I believe that will have to come out), web, Occidental(i's) Karma versus Nirvana, Buddha, namaste, mantra... And I'm sure I can't be the only person watching Eurovision who remembers Dr Desmond Morris.

    I think a part of the chorus should be in English.
    The crowd shouts out a mantra,
    evolution stumbles.
    the naked monkey dances;
    Westerners' karma
    Not in those exact words, something to go with the music.

    ESC version:



    It's pretty much the same, they removed a verse of the song and maybe because I'm not used to this version I don't like the transition it seems rushed

    it conveniently removes the reference to chanel now ofc.

    The transition is horrifying. I expect them to smoothen that out for the backing track in Kyiv, though.

    Well, isn't smoothen a Miltonesque word. However, I know what you mean too, and I agree,
