Sanremo 2010: Aftermath of the scandal

The Avvenire newspaper has published the "secret" results of the Sanremo televote. How they got them as well as the whole voting is under investication as apparently - or should I say as we are in Italy - there seems to be something not quite right. In other countries all sort of tricks are being used, mainly internet hackering. What do they do in Italy? No, you don't my telephone cards, you buy call centers! However, the orchestra in Teatro Ariston formed 50% of the vote and as their top-5 was 1. Malika Ayane, 2. Noemi, 3. Arisa, 4. Marco Mengoni and 5. Simone Christicchi and non of their top-3 made it to the superfinal one can undertand their outburts and protests. 

Here are the televotes in the first round of the final night:
1. Pupo, Emanuele Filiberto & Canonici   212.482 (32,95%)
2. Valerio Scanu   135.588
3. Marco Mengoni   80.287 (jury 4.)
4. Povia   61.125
5. Arisa   37.069 (jury 3.)
6. Irene Fornaciari ft Nomadi   36.210
7. Noemi   23.089 (jury 2.)
8. Malika Ayane   21.668 (jury 1.)
9. Irene Grandi   18.358
10. Simone Cristicchi   16.031 (jury 5.)

Superfinal:
1) Valerio Scanu 235.105 (37,01%)
2) Pupo & co.  213.866 (33,5%)
3) Marco Mengoni 137.913 (29,45)%

Shame the whole top-10 by the jury is not revealed yet but one can suspect Pupo & co were maybe the last one, and Valerio Scanu and Povia at the bottom, too. Considering this the top-3 should have been different or they had a very weird way of counting the points (look how well it was done in Spain last night!). It is clear Marco Mengoni would have been in top-3 anyways, and maybe the winner. Arisa and Malika might have been there, too, or maybe Irene F ft Nomadi as one can quite safely think they were not mongst the last ones on jury's list... 

In the Second Chance round Valerio Scanu beat Pupo & co with 233.092 vs 204.679. Nino D'Angelo third with only 94.042 followed by Sonohra and Toto Cutugno last.
In total during the week in various televotes 3.606.950 televotes were given.

If you are really curious...No,this journalist simply doesn't understand rules of the contest!

He makes confusion and adds two distinct times of televoting (why?!)

Non ho proprio capito che cosa volevi dire? Ció che volevo dire io é che non capisco perche i televoti non sono azzerati dopo il primo ground come fanno avunque dove usano una sistema simile? Cmq se vedo i totali il totale del superfinale é il totale del primo e secondo round, io parlavo dei totali del secondo round dove Scanu ha battuto il trio alla grande....

Vedo che parli benissimo italiano.
Meglio del mio inglese!

Provo a spiegarmi. Il regolamento dice appunto che dopo aver determinato il top3 i voti del primo round vanno azzerati. Si riparte per tutti da zero. Come accade negli altri Paesi.

Questo il giornalista dell'Avvenire non l'ha capito e ha fatto confusione, pensando che il round della superfinale contenesse anche i televoti presi prima. Invece no.

Il primo round è chiuso e nella superfinale si riparte da zero. Quindi dalle 23.39 alle 0.32 Scanu ha preso 235.105 voti, Pupo 213.866 voti, Mengoni 187.913 (3 miei :-) ). Questi sono i voti della sola superfinale, durata circa un'ora (23.39 - 0.32).

Ciao e buona notte!

ESC 2016 WISH LIST: MARGARET FOR POLAND

Małgorzata Jamroży aka Margaret has also been tipped for Eurovision and apparently she did turn it down but she'd be perfect. She's got a look and persona you can't unnotice nor forget, she's got hit songs, she has been voted or nominated for everything from Trendy artist to the Hope of the Year, Fashion Icon and Glamour Woman of the year besides the usual best video, song, album, debut..... Oh she's also a fashion designer! She's very clever with social medias and would surely use it to her advantage if selected for Stockholm 2016. Her debut album is titled Add the blonde , do we need to say more? Except it includes mostly Swedish written pop tunes like Tell me how are ya , Wasted , Start a fire and Heartbeat . And of course her debut single and internationally noticed Thank you very much that you can enjoy below with all its anti-textil feel. I think she's Eurovision perfection, she's cheeky and fun, can we have her?

ESC 2016 BELARUS: NAKED WITH WOLVES?

Today's funniest Eurovision related story comes from Belarus. Some sources claim Ivan wants to perform on stage naked and with live wolf or wolves. It surely would be a first on Eurovision stage! We have seen some forgotten underwear over the years, and some cardbox animals though..... Is it time to take things a bit further?  No, according the rules live animals are not allowed, and Eurovision being a family show nudity won't do either. (It seems to be ok to be half naked if you are a dancer though..... )

Blogilkar exclusive: PASHA PARFENI INTERVIEW

My flying reporter Robert managed to get hold on Pasha Parfeni from Moldova today who has become during this week pretty big favorite to do well. How did he end up in Eurovision, what his goals are and is his granny better than the ones from Buranovo? And will we get a cover album full of Eurovision later on? Find it out here: Why do you want to participate in Eurovision? That's a very difficult question... I want to be a star! A worldstar, ha ha! But I know it's not easy even in Eurovision, only Celine Dion and ABBA have made it. But I can make myself a bit more known, it's good for promotion. After Eurovision I will finish my album and my promo-CD already has nine songs. We will recod maybe 4-5 more and it will make a good album. With what result will you be happy here? Happy? … Top-10! Then I'll be absolutely happy! So if you don't get to the final you will be totally depressed? Yes, maybe... Yes, it would be hard. For me and my team. What are y

GOODBYE, FAREWELL...

The time has come. After all these years, 5,7 million visits, 12.000 articles I guess the time has come. As much as I love and care for Eurovision it just doesn't feel the same. The Corona years took their toll and the past two years and certain decisions have helped me to mature the idea that next year I will hear the songs for the first time in semi-final just like any so called local.  The bubble has burst. Add the toxicity in social medias and fandom. The arrogant teenagers who saw their first contest somewhere 2017 or even 2021 who think they know it all and only their opinion matters. Did I mention the toxic atmosphere on social medias? I'm too old for that sh*t. It's been a long ride that took me to various Eurovision on spot as a fan and tourist,  as a journalist, as a delegation member. I met some great people, made memories of lifetime. In stressful, sad periods of my life this blog has been my safe place, a place to escape and forget everything else for an hour o

BLOGILKAR EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: HANNAH MANCINI

Straight into interview with my Bycycling reporter Robert goes American born Slovenian represent Hannah Mancini. The chatty lady tells us how she ended up from LA to Slovenia and how it is. She does also some serious name dropping. Talks about Slovenian music business. And has her husband turned into an Eurovision maniac?! And how Slovenian does she feel actually? And who would she like to grace the Eurovision stage for Slovenia again? Read it all here: Thank you Hannah for this interview. You're an American woman singing for Slovenia. How on earth did you end up there? I married a Slovenian man! Actually he lived in the States when I met him. I always loved the idea of living in Europe and it was kinda perfect as I met an European man! And he always wanted to come to Europe, his parents emigrated when he was a small child so eventually when the opportunity came, he had a good business thing happening there and also I had some music contacts in Amsterdam and in the UK an

Summer songs: Kylie Minogue - On a night like this

CAROLA'S BOOBS STEAL THE SHOW, SVT APOLOGIES

Update! Another thing got Swedes talking last night: Carola's boobs when she was giving away an award. This is not the first time her boombs cause headlines; her misfortunate adventures in the 80's in Japan wer explained with her boobs being too big for Japanese market. Ok.... Or was it the song ? Anyways, Carola apologies and says she thinks the dress is stylish and elegant (even her friends said so) and she's a mature woman in her 40s, not a 16-year-old girl and looks like one. The Swedish Oscars, Guldbagge awards were given out last night. Carola was there as a guest star to sing Barbra Streisand's The way we were when honoring the movie stars who passed away during 2012. However, the cameras were too much on Carola, not on the stars showed in photos in the background and that upset many viewers as that part of the show was to celebrate them, not Carola. Oh well...  The producer of the show tells in Aftonbladet the part of the show was made the sam
