The national selection was a mess... almost 4 and a half hour, but at least the chosen MEGARA! I'm so happy! and she was sick with bronchitis during the semi final, so the group made to the second chance and them win! Also in a side note they send this song to the Benidorm Fest, but didn't make the cut, so they said: Why not San Marino...and now they win!

We Spaniards are very happy and proud that they are finally going to Eurovision- they deserved a lot going to Eurovision last year - and that we have 2 acts from our country this year in Eurovision and we'll be able to vote for San Marino in their semifinal - Spain votes in the 2nd semifinal - so we are definitely going to vote massively for them in order to have them also in the final as well as Nebulossa

@@SC-bq7ob why not? As we could vote for Spain we might vote for San Marino as they're represented by Spaniards with a song in Spanish that's likely going to feature Italian lyrics as well. Also it's not a bad song that they send for once, might not be for everyone but it's still 10 steps ahead of Piqued Jacks or Achille Lauro.

As an American neutral whose Eurovision country is San Marino, it was such a relief to not only see them pick a good act after the embarrassment of "Like an Animal" last year, but to also pick an act that I adored at Benidorm Fest last year and am delighted to see finally make the jump to Eurovision! Will for sure be rooting proudly for Il Titani again after hanging my head for a few years (what with the vote-swapping in 2022 as well). Get thee back to the final!!

@philipdawson780010 ай бұрын
Also, technically many artists can apply to multiple National Finals with the same song, if they're not selected (hell, that's what Megara did, they submitted "11:11" for Benidorm & got snubbed, so they took it to San Marino). But yeah, it is very rare for the same song to compete in 2 different National Finals in the same year.

I lost my shit when I saw Megara won UVPSM!! "Arcadia" was my 2nd favorite song in all of Eurovision season last year (behind "Evita" in Albania) & while "11:11" isn't quite as epic, it's an awesome party rock anthem & hella enjoyable & I'm sure Megara will absolutely serve on the Eurovision stage (especially hoping Kenzy isn't sick then). They have a legitimate chance of qualifying from Semi 2.

I was soooo happy that the won and I mus admit I was prepared to get a messy song from San Marino again - I mean they had 129 songs in the Selection plus a song written with the help of an AI in the final - And we had Loredana who is a legend and it was actually the second time this happened - the Stripper guy from 2022 was also first in San Remo and after that he won in San Marino

Well they have the chance to get 12 point from both Spain and Italy this year in the semi-final. I personally like this song, is not bad. The problem with Loredana is that she's 74 years old so the voice is a bit strained, but that's normal. Unofrtunately she won't be able to annoy her ex-husband😂

the reason why, San Remo is the oldest songfestival in Europe, 1st time it took place was 1951 , older than Eurovision.... and its a songfestival for Italy but not "the official qualification show like Melodifestival" as long as Italy take part in Eurovision, the winner can go to Eurovision...but isnt forced to go... often the 2nd or 3rd place went to Eurovision... sometimes as well with a different song... generally the show was very entertaining.. but it still dont get it - that a 8 people Jury with the average age of 60 voted for Megara... 😅🤣 Loredana Berte was the queen and by far better😍😍😍 , but I cross my fingers for San Marino - they did a great show and I watched all 5 Seminfinals and had a great time there

Pedestal is one of my favorite songs this year, but that performance was really bad and not only because of the audio mixing but also Aiko's singing in that performance, so while I really hope she does a lot better, I can't have too high hopes until I see the improvement. Megara actually sounds pretty solid, it's a cool song too, but the audio is clearly not great.
