Italy: Which artists were “cut” from the Sanremo 2025 lineup

/0 Comments/in , /by

Following the announcement of the Sanremo 2025 Festival participants by Carlo Conti during Tg1, another list emerged: that of artists who submitted songs but failed to make the final selection. Among them are past festival winners, legendary names, and rising stars.

More Participants but Also Many Exclusions

The number of contestants in the main lineup increased from 24 to 30, with the artistic director noting that at least ten more artists deserved a spot on the Festival’s stage. Despite this expansion, the exclusions remain numerous and significant.

The Major Absentees

Topping the list are Jalisse, the duo who won the festival in 1997 with the song Fiume di parole. Since then, they’ve submitted songs every year without ever being selected again. The duo has embraced their predicament with humor, sharing a satirical video where they “celebrate” their 28th rejection.

Other notable absentees include major names like Al Bano, who had high hopes this year, Patty Pravo, the Nomadi, and well-known artists such as Enrico Nigiotti, Ermal Meta, and Virginio.

Representing the New Generation

In the rap scene, artists like Dani Faiv, Luchè, and Shade did not make the list. Additionally, several performers from music reality shows, such as Aka 7even and Alberto Urso, were excluded, unlike other former contestants like Elodie and Irama, who secured spots.

Female Artists Left Out

Among the women who didn’t make it, notable names include Anna Tatangelo, Arisa, Alexia, and Elettra Lamborghini. Irene Grandi’s exclusion caused a stir, especially as she presented a song written by Gianna Nannini.

Alternative and Dance Scenes

Disappointment also struck the dance and pop categories, with names like Gabry Ponte, Eiffel 65, Gigi D’Agostino, Benji & Fede, and Boomdabash left out.

Despite the many disappointments, Sanremo 2025 promises a highly diverse lineup, although for some, the dream will have to wait at least another year.

Italy: Carlo Conti plans to end the shows of Sanremo 2025 at midnight!

/0 Comments/in , /by

The new artistic director and host of the Sanremo festival Carlo Conti, has already started preparations for its upcoming edition. According to what the Italian media reports, Carlo Conti intends to drastically reduce the duration of Sanremo’s nights, while his intentions include the reinstatement of the Dopo Festival, a live show immediately after the end of Sanemo’s broadcast each night.

His role has been taken seriously by Carlo Conti, who returns to the position of artistic director and host, after eight years. Carlo Conti is one of the favorite faces of RAI, since all these years he presented favorite shows of the Italian public television, with great success and viewership.

So, according to what Dagospia reports, Carlo Conti is already working on the regulations for Sanremo 2025. Once they are ready, he will of course start the search for songs, both through a public call and direct discussions with artists and record labels.

Carlo Conti will attempt to drastically reduce the duration of the Sanremo 2025 broadcast, as he aims for it to finish at midnight. We say that he will attempt, since we have heard this several times in the past, but no one has ever been able to achieve it.

Another of his intentions for Sanremo 2025 is to bring back the Dopo Festival, a live show that was broadcast immediately after the end of each race night and essentially included interviews, reports and everything that the cameras did not show. The rumored presenter of the Dope Festival is Alessandro Cattelan, who was also one of the presenters of Eurovision 2022.

The winner of Sanremo in recent years has the option, if he wishes, to represent Italy in the Eurovision contest. Angelina Mango represented Italy at Eurovision 2024, with the song La Noia, which was also the winning song of Sanremo 2024. In Malmö, she finished seventh, with 268 points.
