The popular artist in Italy and the country’s representative in Eurovision 2013 returned to this year’s Sanremo festival, winning last night, ten years after his previous victory. Marco Mengoni confirmed he will represent Italy at the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, but he hasn’t decided yet if he goes with his winning Sanremo entry, Due Vite!

In his interview with TG1, Marco Mengoni does not seem to be sure about the song with which he will take part in Eurovision for the second time, since as he mentioned he is thinking about not competing in Liverpool with Due Vite, but with another song.
The last time an Italian representative did not take part in Eurovision by participating in Sanremo was Nina Zilli, who replaced Per Semper with L’amore è femmina, eventually finishing ninth in Baku.
