I feel that having English lyrics would be a bad idea for Francesco, because I can barely tell he's singing in English during the line "and singing in the rain"

I'm torn. Assuming he's going to perform to an uninformed audience and jury in Kiev, the audience may love it for the performance but not for the song itself (since they won't understand Italian), but then the juries may not like it for the same reason. If he sings at least a verse of English, I feel like the song would lose its charm, but it would be better understood, which could help with the jury vote. It also doesn't help that they have to cut out 37 seconds off of the song for the performance. It was Italy's fault to begin with for sending a 5-minute song back in 1957, which resulted in the 3-minute limit.  But based on pure feeling, that's where the song really redeems. I still hope it wins. |

For an Italian singer, winning Sanremo is far more prestigious than participating at Eurovision. I think they don't mind of the length of the song because of this. They can also change the song if they win. I don't support the Italian song of this year, so I'm not wondering how to make this one shorter but I was very disappointed by the result of this operation on the song of Francesca Michielin last year, with the most interesting part of the song replaced by a worthless part in English. I would have solved the problem in another way: accelerate the tempo! Just listen to the original song with 1,25x speed....
