Sanremo 2022: Emma “Ogni volta è così”
Ten years after winning the Sanremo Festival 2012 with “Non è l’inferno“, Emma Marrone makes her return to the Ariston Theatre. In 2014 she was the Italian representative, chosen internally by Rai, for the Eurovision in Copenhagen. She placed 21st with her pop-rock song “La mia città“.
She’s chosen a rather storied conductor to lead the orchestra — and someone who Eurovision fans know well. It’s Francesca Michielin, who placed 16th in Stockholm with “No degree of separation“.
What do the “Ogni volta è così” lyrics mean?
“Ogni volta è così” (Every time it’s like this) is a love song about the inevitable need to belong to another — perhaps for one night or maybe even forever. It’s an invitation to surrender, to put aside our pride and to embrace our own frailties and insecurities as we lose ourselves in love.
“It speaks of love to everyone,” Emma says. “The verse ‘We’re saints or wh*res’ emphasizes that the lyrics are not about toxic relationships but about complex relationships. At dinner with friends we always address the same topics — many couples stay together in a fake bubble just to not be alone. There is no risk. I am addressing women but the message is for everyone.”

Italian textLo vedi come sei, arrenditi stanotte Siamo stati mai liberi? E ogni volta è così, ogni volta è normale Mamma mi diceva sempre “Siamo come angeli” E ti credevo quando mi giuravi che eri pazzo di me Io non ti ho chiesto niente mai Ma con te ogni volta è così, ogni volta è normale Mamma mi diceva sempre “Siamo come angeli” E ti credevo quando mi giuravi che eri pazzo di me Non so perché ogni volta è così Persi per strada a un incrocio per un momento Te lo ricordi che per appartenere alle tue mani non ci ho messo niente |
English translationYou see how you are, surrender tonight Have we ever been free? And every time it’s like this, every time it’s normal Mum always told me “We are like angels” And I believed you when you swore that you were crazy about me I never asked you for anything But with you every time it’s like this, every time it’s normal Mum always told me “We are like angels” And I believed you when you swore that you were crazy about me I don’t know why every time it’s like this We’re lost on the street at an intersection for a moment Imagine the sky was the floor Do you remember that to belong to your hands I didn’t put anything in it |
What do you think of “Ogni volta è così”? Could it win Sanremo? Would it work at Eurovision? Comment below.
Well I already read on Twitter that she refused to go to eurovision.
Together with Ana mena and iva.
Why is she refusing to go to eurovision?
She wasn’t exactly treated well her first ESC appearance. Maybe bad memories.
maybe if she had a good song and a remotely decent performance
The song was good, her performance was a total mess.
She won’t win anyway. She doesn’t deserve also to be in Sanremo.
right, we left her in 2015 and her music style is stuck there too lol
none of them will come close to winning so it’s fine
