Winner
With so many incredible performances tonight, both the jury and the public had a very difficult task in picking just one song. However, we have a winner, and she is Giorgia. She received a trophy for the Cover Night, but this victory will not impact her final result in tomorrow’s grand final. It’s worth mentioning that Giorgia was in the top 5 on both previous nights in which she competed.
Her duet partner was Annalisa, a well-known figure among Eurovision fans for her numerous Sanremo participations. Last year, she was on the podium with her song “Sinceramente,” finishing in 3rd place. Annalisa and Giorgia have shared the stage before, and it’s easy to see that they make a powerful duet.
Tonight, they performed “Skyfall,” a cover of Adele’s song. The track was originally recorded in 2012 for the James Bond movie of the same name.
The performance can be watched on RaiPlay’s website.

What do you think about tonight’s winner? Do you like the covers from top10? Which cover was the best in your opinion? Let us know in the comments below.
A very deserved win. I really hope that Giorgia takes the win tonight! Such a class act and I love her performance 🙂
would be pretty clever if italy sends a ballad to eurovision, because 99% of the entries selected so far are really noisy. a good ballad could easily get a top 5 result
99%?! Ok but Slovenia, Greece, Montenegro don’t exist?
only 3 and they still need to qualify from the semis
Not wrong, but you talked about the entries selected so far, that’s why I was surprised
I would love Fedez to win!
Because the song is not a mid Italian ballad you’all hype
Giorgia is amazing with her vocals, so Annalisa, but Skyfall was just a random choice. It was perfect for Annalisa but not for Giorgia. Lucio Corsi did a BEAUTIFUL intelretation with Topo Gigio and the song “Nel blu dipinto di blu” had a meaning in his Sanremo’s story. Cristicchi deserved top 5 tonight and a lot of perfomance in top 10 were not good.
Tomorrow I predict top 5: Lucio Corsi, Cristicchi, Giorgia, Olly, Fedez. Possible 6°/7°/8° Place Achille Lauro, Brunori Sas and Irama.
Such a fun night! So sad to say i’m going to miss the live broadcast tomorrow and i’ll miss being able to be part of this chat! It’s been another very fun year of wiwibloggs Sanremo comments, y’all are the best : )
Thank you. It’s because we are real fans. No nationalism involved.
100%
Omg! Bresh-is not there after all those troubles!
Lucio nr2 -the boy is doing just good!
And then the Skyfall nr 1. Well, I think it was not Giorgia who did it today but another singer( sorry didn’t catch the name as I arrived late).
Achille is not there tonight…
Mixed feelings I have….
And the winner is… Skyfall. I never really liked that song, but okay.
Silver for Gigio.
Buonanotte
What a day/eve/night tomorrow! Starts already 18.15 with Eesti Laul and there we have 3 (!) more finals (and even more semis).What a lovely time of the year for us, Eurofans!
Buonanotte a tutti , we’ll chat tomorrow)
Quitter. Buonanotte… I’m staying until the very end of tonight… Lucio and Gigio for the win. Or else Bresh and Cristiano.
I stayed ofc…Looks like Giorgia is winning tomorrow.
STOP AL TELEVOTO
Minchia, Bresh is hot
Bresh and Cristiano back for a third attempt. Fingers crossed
Kinekm mondjam el vétkeimet…
Guess Sanremo admin learned a thing or two after Blanco
They do deserve to perform their beautiful song one more time without issues. And it worked!)
I think nobody has mentioned Shablo Ft. Guè, Joshua, Tormento before in here as it’s not the style that everybody understands/likes. But I’m giving big kudos to them. Not a winner but I, personally, appreciate it)
Nate Dog vibes and the gospel !Me likes
I liked, but maybe a bit too laid back for this time of night… I’m already tired and this didn’t help…
I only saw half of a show tonight so it’s allright to me hehe but everybody I know who were watching went to sleep an hour ago or so because “too many ballads” , well they just don’t get Sanremo I’d say )
Totally agree!
I really enjoy mutual respect and communication I see on this discussion page. It can get toxic on other pages but here it feels like we all just enjoying great festival together. I don’t think I’ll stay up for results, it’s 4am in Dubai. Quindi buona notte a tutti!
Go to bed!
Buonanotte. Ah, you are in Dubai. From the name I thought more Turkey. Yes, Sanremo chats are gentle because there are real fans without bitter feelings.
You’re right, my name is common among Turk nations, while last names with -ov in the end are typical for Slavic and ex-Soviet countries. So I’m from Kyrgyzstan and have lived in Dubai, the very cosmopolitan city, for very long time
And why do you think it’s like that? I have some thoughts, but I keep them to myself this time 🙂
Yeah in the end I didn’t resist the temptation and watched some of the performances. Annalisa really is a goddess I will just say. And add that it must be an amazing serata. I won’t miss it next year
One… of… us! One… of… us!
Welcome to the Sanremo loyalist club.
Now off to bed though, tiring day but tomorrow will be amazing!
Professionalism… at least they made it to the end this time
My god TWO times technical problems for Bresh & Cristiano De André… the song is so beautyful but can only imagine how they feel…
Oh gosh. Everything happened here.
This reminds me of Hungary 1994
Three songs left. Tonight has gone fast.
Too fast! I’m not used to this.
Some bad audience camerawork there, a bored looking man followed by a woman on her phone.
Oh the melancholy of this song delivered perfectly by three of them. Bravissimi!
Better late than never but here I am )
I hope you have a good excuse.
I do. I was at ballet)
Watching Sanremo tonight from Skyfall but until the end ofc)
Such perfect vocals!
Neri per caso were in Sanremo in the nineties. They won once, if I am not wrong.
I loved the unexpected Ancora. Even if Elodie didn’t.
Some of the orchestra went with it though
Na-po-li-tan-i… no, I can’t say it either
Poor Mahmood, he was really struggling there. It’s difficult as he said
Lauro and Elodie both rocking the Audrey Hepburn look?
Audrey is a Fashion Icon tho. I have like four patterns inspired by her at this point.
Boom! Bringing some sex!
What a bitch. And Elodie is serving too.
Costume Comment- Category is a film noir of the 30s. Elodie kinda looks like Rita Hayworth in Gilda and Achille is again, channelling a mafia boss in 1920s New York. I would watch that movie tho.
Part two- We’re on The Rocky Horror Show. Cool, another musical role, he’s be amazing tho, with the Cabaret Emcee as Jonas and I discussed on Tuesday.
Agreed!
A mafia boss… until the disrobing.
We went from Gilda to Rocky quite quickly, didn’t we?
Ajde balagan! Some Balkan realness!
Balkan Party Time at Sanremo!
Olly doing a Moldova
La-la-la-lai-la-la-la-laa…
I’d say Croatia. I mean, Goran is a Croatian name.
Costume Comment- Honestly, I don’t like to be too critical, but if you are going to wear a capelet dress number, wear at least knee high pants. There are a few angles that looked weird. And this comes from someone who has a thing for Asher Grodman.
Outfit : Chanel
Spain 2022?
Cool performance by Sarah, clever idea mixing Be Mine into it.
I’d love to see Ofenbach in Eurovision!
L’estate sta finendo (Summer’s ending) is the saddest but happiest song I can recall atcthe moment.
Like I said last night, every song should have a sax solo.
Tutta L’Italia… (sax solo)
😀
Sarah slayed that, it was cool!
Costume Comment- Too much going on for me, but she seems to like that style, so good for her. Some people like flower prints and embroidery, some like to be stoned for the Gods.
Wow, that Ofenbach song with Sarah Toscano and the orchestra was fantastic!
More orchestral heaven next.
Costume Comment- I love a mini LBD and that asymmetric ruffle. But I really think the gloves should be solid black, or solid white if she wanted the popping effect with them.
Franco Battiato, such a talent, and Eurovision veteran
My favourite so far:
Clara – Il volo
Serena Brancale – Alessandra Amoroso
Irama – Arisa
Almost similar for me:
Clara Il Volo
Irama Arisa
The Kolors – Sal Da Vinci
Chingiz, be careful scrolling to the top of the comments… spoiler headlines ahead…
Yes yes, I’m avoiding that part when refreshing the page. Although I think I won’t watch it right after Sanremo but when I wake up instead. It’s almost 3am where I live
I like the carpet.
Costume Comment- I kinda like the base dress, but I could do it without the half cape thing.
Ahh bravo on a great performance of “Skyfall.” 🙂
Who’s the winner so far, of tonight?
The orchestra.
Topo Gigio gets the Critics Choice, though.
True story
I think Giorgia should’ve chosen a song in Italian. She’s one of my favorite vocalists but I don’t think English suits her
Giorgia plus Annalisa is some serious star power (Skyfall wasn’t the most interesting song choice possible tho IMO)
I’m trying to manifest Annalisa winning Sanremo, and honestly, Giorgia can come into that victory too.
Annalisa was unlucky to be up against an unstoppable Mango, Sinceramente could have probably done it this season
Costume Comment- I love the matching suits in black and white. I could see this being a legit Bond theme music video. Good vs evil type
Ugh, I want so hard Mahmood touring in the UK. I want to see him live.
Worth travelling to Italy for? I think so.
Same here…. hopefully touring in the US . On my bucket list to see him perform.
