Mahmood completely blew me away. On the first listen, it jumped immediately to my #1 - and the fact that [a majority of] the songs that have been released so far are actually really good, but Italy is so far ahead to where it jumps above all the others is crazy. Let’s make some justice for Italy 2017! Could this be a winner? At least top 10 for sure. Amazing job Italia!
Italy actually decided to take part again to this euro trash show only in 2011.. a lot of people still neither know what eurovision is. The national Sanremo festival is way more important for artists and publicum
@@iaindj well, yes actually Italy is one of the nation who created this show and esc is inspired from Sanremo. The thing is that the winner of Sanremo ( more important for italians and much higher standards) has the "option" To take part to esc, but basically most of the artist don't really care to go there..even Mahmood decided only two days ago to take part to esc. Already in the past years many winner rejected the option, and the songs that Italy "pick", are actually designed to win Sanremo, not esc!
Alessia and Wako, thank you to you and your country for giving us Mahmood, for sharing this gem with the rest of Europe!! From the first moment I listened to the song I got hooked completely, and after reading about that stuff going on I want him to win even more!! He'd so deserve it ❤️
I can't believe, I was just thinking about when will you gonna post Italy's reaction video and boom there it is!! Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to your reactions even this year
Mahmood e il classico esempio di come il talento e riconosciuto in altri paesi e non in patria. E amato da gente di varie generazioni. Io ho 55 anni e vivo in Canada, e seguo la musica italiana. Mahmood e bravo e si vede che canta dal cuore. Penso che avra ottime possibilita di vincita :)
What worries me is once you get to your second or third listen you absolutely fall in love (most people) - which is a disadvantage for Italy bcs they don't get to compete in the semis. EuroVish peeps, vote for this goddamn masterpiece in May!
Ah, I've been waiting so much for this one. I think it's cool you're having the Italian Eurovision Hubbers give an intro before the reaction, and their reactions are so cute! This is also the first reaction video to Italy where I've seen RUclipsrs' handclaps be in sync with Mahmood. 😂
Il problema è che i voti di San Marino vengono decisi facendo una media dei voti di altri paesi, dal momento che è un Paese così piccolo che si appoggiano alle nostre compagnie telefoniche ed è come se l'Italia votasse per l'Italia. :'(
This is my favourite of the year so far. I had mixed feelings when I first heard it, but I really like it. It’s contemporary and really different than expected.
I loved that you had italians explaining a bit of the context of the song. I was just like Alessia throughout the performance and I'm happy you guys liked it. Hopefully you'll remember to vote in May!
I'm italian and i'm never been so imbarassed, in Italy this guy it's SO underrated and a lot of people think he won only because he's half egyptian. We live in a country where we mix every stuff with politics and that's disrespectfull for this amazing singer
Dilla tutta la storia di mahmood. Ha preso il 14% dei voti italiani e ha vinto grazie alla giuria. Non c' entra il razzismo , semplicemente é una canzone bruttarella non all' altezza dell' eurovision. L' anno scorso con Ermal meta ( albanese) non c' é stato il casino attuale perché la canzone era stupenda. Ma siete fissati col razzismo . Vabbé
@@puffoletta02 Alfonsina Litfibiana 2 cose molto semplici 1) Non c'avevo semplicemente voglia di scrivere un poema in inglese 2) Dimmi dove ho parlato di razzismo dai. Non c'è scritto ne "Racist" ne altre cose del genere. Dico solo che in Italia un sacco di gente da entrambe le parti non fa che dire "Ha vinto solo perché è nero e la giuria è fatta da buonisiti" oppure "Godo che ha vinto un nero così Salvini rosica!!!!"

Non nego sia buono il fatto di trasmettere un messaggio importante,ma se la canzone non prende il messaggio non arriva e l'idea di fondo fallisce miseramente!
Noosh: "how could you not like this song?" You're absolutely right, but go and read the comments about him in Italy.. so much undeserved hate, even the deputy prime minister stated that he didn't think he was the rightful "italian" winner... I have to say that this is for me the best italian entry since the comeback in 2011, 2017 was good but this is more credible for the foreigners...so let's wait and see
There is nothing racist about what Salvini said. He said it wasn't the rightful winner because the San Remo festival relies firstly on the vote from home, In this stage Mahmood arrived in the top 3. The the top 3 are subjected to another vote from home, and in this Mahmood was 3rd with only 14% of the votes from home, whilst the 1st and 2nd were respectively at 46% and 40%. Only then did the expert jury vote determine the winner.
The Italian langauage is so awesomely great. It is so beautiful. I also like the difference between the song and you Italians. Sounded even more beautiful when sang it at 2:16 lol :)
I like the song, the lyrics music and Mahmood👍He sings it emotional and feel what he sings👍👍👍I even loved the Arabic few words between and I am sure he will winn. All the Italian who critised him will be ashamed of the fact they did.....
I mean, you reactors are normal people like me and I can't sing either but why do I feel finally satisfied to see someone not butchering lyrics and tempo while singing along especially to non-English songs lol
I looooove this song definitely one of my favourite, I only listen the audio only but in this live one I can feel the emotion more I need to find it. So brb :P
GUYS, MAHMOOD DESERVES TO WIN.. Tell to our Italian Minister(Matteo Salvini) that an half Egyptian and and half Italian can win an Eurovision Song contest. He MUST BE PROUD OF HIM...SALVINI, FUCKINg RACIST, you too Will be proud of him, I swear
Loic Nottet riggggghttt?? I thought of the same thing. Both are my favourites and I'll sure be spending money on those Text messages this year... Watch me
In the suburbs it is very hot Mom, you're quiet, I'm coming You take it for a liar You seemed to love but it was another Drinking champagne under Ramadan The TV gives Jackie Chan He smokes hookah, he asks me how it goes Mi asks how it goes, how it goes, how it goes You already know how it goes, how it goes, how it goes I think the most fast way to understand if tomorrow you give me fregherai I don't have time to clarify why only now I know what you're It is difficult to stay in the world When you lose the pride Leave the house in a day You tell me if Pensavi only to the money, money As if I had had money, money Tell me if you miss it or you will fuck, fuck You asked me how it goes, how it goes, how it goes Now how it goes, how it goes, how it goes Ciò you have to say have not said Betray is a bullet in the chest Get your love Minds at the house but do you know that knows On a chair she will ask me, Mi asks how it goes, how it goes, how it goes You already know how it goes, how it goes, how it goes I think the most fast way to understand if tomorrow you give me fregherai
If Italy doesn't win I'm going to stop watching Eurovision. Contemporary and super cool song. So over earnest ballads and bubblegum songs. The lyrics are poetical and tell a profoundly emotional story
To answer the comments, I hated last year. Plus, there’s still many other songs to go through and could change. So calm down. As far as this year, both songs are interchangeable, meaning it depends on my mood. I like them both for different reasons. Spain is fun. Italy is lyrically brilliant.
Um.. I think I am in the minority right now. It is pretty catchy put it is only my third favourite after Australia and Albania. I think this will be like Italy 2017. Overhyped , will do okay in televote but will suffer a bit with juries. I predict low top 10 finish give or take 2 spots. I don't think it will win (I did not say it shouldn't just that it's unlikely).
I think exactly the opposite: it will get good points from the jury (because it's interesting and contemporary) but not from the public, because is kind of low-key and not so "in your face"

@@agem1989 but, during the last years, I've heard Eurovision has been more and more important in Italy, especially in young people.
@@agem1989 I agree. I have been watching San Remo since 80es. It is great show and it's pity that is not shown across EU.
The next winner of Eurovision song contest!!!
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS - this is my winner 🇮🇹🇮🇹👏👏🇮🇹🇮🇹👏👏
Alessia and Wako, thank you to you and your country for giving us Mahmood, for sharing this gem with the rest of Europe!! From the first moment I listened to the song I got hooked completely, and after reading about that stuff going on I want him to win even more!! He'd so deserve it ❤️
Sharing this with the rest of the world.
Se quest'anno non ci farete vincere, dal prossimo vi manderemo come unico concorrente fisso Gigi D'Alessio XD
Nessuno sarebbe così cattivo 😂
Lo so, sarebbe troppo crudele, ma se lo meriterebbero :D
Bravi 😂
Noooooooooooooo!!!! 🙏🏽
Hahahaha ^_^
This year we mean business 🇮🇹💪
We placed second lol
I can't believe, I was just thinking about when will you gonna post Italy's reaction video and boom there it is!! Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to your reactions even this year
What a song good luck Italy
The song has the good beginning and the perfect ending. It so catchy from the bottom to the top! Clap for this! 👏👏!
I love italian people. You can see emotion on they reaction? Love it!!!
I'm Italian and seeing all of these people liking the song made me soooo excited!! He really deserves this, he's so precious❤️
I LOVE it!!! Original, unique, beautiful, modern, perfect. Italy can win Eurovisión this year.

Italy has to win this year! 12 points from Spain 🇪🇸 🇮🇹
What worries me is once you get to your second or third listen you absolutely fall in love (most people) - which is a disadvantage for Italy bcs they don't get to compete in the semis. EuroVish peeps, vote for this goddamn masterpiece in May!
yeah it basically passed by me when I first heard it, now at this point I've probably listened to it a solid 50 times😂
in the semifinals the big 5 play their songs too if I remember correctly. They just cannot be voted
Ah, I've been waiting so much for this one. I think it's cool you're having the Italian Eurovision Hubbers give an intro before the reaction, and their reactions are so cute!
This is also the first reaction video to Italy where I've seen RUclipsrs' handclaps be in sync with Mahmood. 😂
Without any doubt the best one so far!
ITALY 2020 🇮🇹 ♥️
Thank you so much from Italy !!😍😘 I'm happy that the song likes it😊😀
❤
Yay! So proud of being represented by such an amazing person singing such a beautiful song! Can't wait to see him at Eurovision 🤩
The only *real* question : will San Marino give us top points?! If they do, it is a *real* masterpiece!
Il problema è che i voti di San Marino vengono decisi facendo una media dei voti di altri paesi, dal momento che è un Paese così piccolo che si appoggiano alle nostre compagnie telefoniche ed è come se l'Italia votasse per l'Italia. :'(
Valeria Marelli e ma in questo modo è come se San Marino non votasse
"I'm so excited!", "This is quality", "Come va come va come va", "This is something different", D I F F E R E N T ! ! !
Took me a few listens to get into this but love it now. Contemporary, edgy....most likely winner I've heard so far
Being realistic, both of his competitors in San Remo got the triple of votes
He won't win. The juries will never go for this.
@@sav0001 This won Sanremo thanks to jury tho.
His song is so freaking awesome🤟 love from the US.
Best of luck 🙌 you are winner in my eyes ❤️❤️
Love it 😍 my top 1 so far 🤩
This is my favourite of the year so far. I had mixed feelings when I first heard it, but I really like it. It’s contemporary and really different than expected.
I love love loooooove how Alessia and Wako were hyping up both Mahmood and his song. I just started crying and smiling like a baby.
Can't wait for his win in Tel Aviv
I loved that you had italians explaining a bit of the context of the song. I was just like Alessia throughout the performance and I'm happy you guys liked it. Hopefully you'll remember to vote in May!
12 points from Israel. Fantastic. Playing in my car over and over.
I'm italian and i'm never been so imbarassed, in Italy this guy it's SO underrated and a lot of people think he won only because he's half egyptian. We live in a country where we mix every stuff with politics and that's disrespectfull for this amazing singer

You seemed to love but it was another

He smokes hookah, he asks me how it goes

I don't have time to clarify why only now I know what you're
It is difficult to stay in the world
When you lose the pride
Leave the house in a day
You tell me if
Pensavi only to the money, money
As if I had had money, money
Tell me if you miss it or you will fuck, fuck
You asked me how it goes, how it goes, how it goes
Now how it goes, how it goes, how it goes
Ciò you have to say have not said
Betray is a bullet in the chest
Get your love
Minds at the house but do you know that knows
On a chair she will ask me,
Mi asks how it goes, how it goes, how it goes
You already know how it goes, how it goes, how it goes
I think the most fast way to understand if tomorrow you give me fregherai

He’s not totally Italian even though he was born in Italy, but he is Italian. As for winning Eurovision it’s a artistic competition, that’s ok
