In other interviews they said they won't stop to write in italian, I hope so since I would be offended otherwise :( I think they just mean they'll have to focus more on english songs due to an international audience and improve (their italian songs are dfeinitely higher quality concerning the lyrics until now)

[@rticante]

Yeah, mostly because Damiano's lyrics in Italian have been *far* better than the ones he wrote in English, and they also risk losing any peculiarity to make them stand out if they enter the international market armed with only mediocre English lyrics. The Italian language also has very specific sounds that can't be replicated in English and judging by the success of Zitti e Buoni the foreign audience loves it; you don't have to sing in English to get a massive international following (think Rammstein). So in my opinion either they improve their English writing dramatically (which would obviously be great) or they keep putting out mixed-language albums, because at the moment I don't see them faring too well writing only in English.

[@foscolo987]

@Ambam yep, and that would make sense tbh. I guess what Damiano said in this interview could be misunderstood. I hope that's the case! There are soo many reasons why they shouldn't stop writing in Italian: - first of all, being a native Italian speaker, inevitably his lyrics in Italian will always be a lot more varied - their biggest portion of fans is made of Italians, who actually helped them a lot in reaching this extremely well-deserved fame - currently, their most beautiful songs are in Italian - a lot of foreigners now want to learn Italian thanks to them - they said themselves that rock in Italy "isn't really a thing" but they are changing that and they shouldn't stop because we are counting on them 🔥🔥❤

I couldn't have said it better. Their Italian songs are masterpieces, their English stuff is fun but not as amazing.

@@strikedn I get that, though people shouldn't at all be ashamed of their native language.

That's why we want them to stay true to their Italian roots and not betray their culture. Take it from me, my current favorite band is from Russia (and I don't even speak Russian) and I'm actually angry how little attention such a band gets because god forbid they don't sell out.

me being italian means a gigantic bias, but I hope they don't give up on writing and performing in italian too; maybe save 30% in italian; the main reasons being that having the language different voicing and metrics ensures that there will be a characteristic richness of different sounds, and honestly the quality of italian lyrics (I didn't actually know them before Sanremo) really surprised me; Coraline is a great example; if they can transport that quality to English lyrics that's great, but I would ensure that that quality is not lost in any case. Lyrics like that eloquently show a side of the band that contrasts the more stereotyped views of what a rock band is like.

But this band's songs proved once again to me that language is not a boundary in music. Even more, it actually lighted a new urge to learn more languages (starting from Italian). The song Torna a Casa especially resounded in me. Of course, I respect their choices if they choose to focus mainly on English lyrics. However I really hope that I get to continue listening to new Italian songs from them. It truly was a blessing on our ears. Also as someone who is a little pessimistic about how Kpop songs use so much English nowadays, I long for more lyrics like Maneskin's. Complete sentences, a story inside a song and album. Not just broken, catchy phrases.

But also, hearing I want to be your Slave, For your love, or even their covers of English bands, I'm really loving Damiano's accent in English, and I do want to hear more of that lol

[@xxjanetx]

I live this band so much

[@claudiadandrea3977]

nice interview great.......love them soooooo much. I hope they continue writing in Italian. I love English language, but Italian happens to be a beautiful language and it's so different and refreshing. I think their charme is also about singing and performing in their native language, this makes them stand out. I think people love listening to authenticity.

[@NinaThoren]

I understand more of the English lyrics but the Italian is so beautiful (even in a rock song) I hope you will keep writing in Italian and maybe do both and not only English

[@missgreendayfan]

I love how this whole comment section is full of people hoping they'll focus more on writing songs in Italian! I don't speak Italian but I'd be really bummed out if the majority of their music was in English. The Italian songs are just a whole other level of awesome! Please, Damiano. We love your Italian poetry 💔 I'm sure you enjoy writing in Italian too, the lyrics are magnificent. Not only does it set you apart from the other bands that only sing in English, it also elevates the power and emotional connection to the songs, we can feel your soul even if we can't understand it (although I'm sure many of us look up the translations, and it's really cool, I'm already learning some Italian because of it!)

[@geoo1325]

I have to say that I prefer the Italian tracks but please sing and play whatever you wanna do bc y'all are amazing🥺🥺🥺💜

[@dia6olo64]

I personally would be seriously disappointing if they went down the route of mostly English. I don't mind an English song or two but would prefer if most were in Italian, they just sound better to my ear and they are also at another level from a lyrics point of view.

[@jjj_8886]

I am not Italian but beggin' you don't stop to write in Italian too.

I don't understand Italian but I 'feel' it in your songs. English sounds more banal, so to say. Please keep writing in Italian and stay true to your roots, they are amazing :) Cheers from UA/DE.

I only met w them 10 days ago but i would kill for them ✌🏻✨ love from Turkey 💖

[@Thnksfrthmania]

I’m so happy they’re finally getting the recognition they deserve!!! These guys are amazing! ☺️

[@dia6olo64]

Maneskin I hope you get to read this and the many comments on here that concur with me. Please do not switch to singing too much in English, I don't mind an English song or two but I as with most on here it seems, would prefer if most were in Italian. I have listened to all your songs and there’s not a bad one amongst them, You are an excellent band. However, in my opinion and again it seems most here concur, while your English songs are very good and catchy, your Italian ones are the ones that truly hit hard, they reach the soul and then some when we translate the lyrics. That aside, I personally want to truly thank you from the bottom of my heart for the incredible music you have given us so far and long may it continue. Thank you guys, you are incredible!

[@gregorygant4242]

I think they should stick to writing most of their songs in Italian. Even though we don't know what they're saying ,we GET what they're trying say,through the music,passion, and the sheer beauty of the Italian language. Keep them going in Italian guy's ,bravo Italia!

[@maxdelpo5578]

Thanks

[@CoriCoid]

I absolutely LOVE the Italian songs. They make me really excited to learn the language and are refreshing to listen to on my playlist full of English songs. Such a different energy and powerfully unique. That being said, write whatever you like, youre obviously doing something right!! So excited for your next album!💚🤍❤

[@MiRa-kd8gn]

i personally like Italian more, but i'll support this band anyways!!!

[@thyop89]

My mind is reeling from the fact that this album was recorded live but it also makes total sense with the energy created. Have to say, I don't have any issue with them writing songs in both English and Italian. Fell in love with them because of their general charisma and musicianship and also with Damiano's vocal performance. The Italian lyrics are far more intricate but I don't think this necessarily dictates how the overall song turns out. Damiano is clearly a very talented writer. I also enjoy the different vibe of the English songs too, they feel more punk inspired because the lyrics are simplistic and that just works for certain songs. I don't think he was saying that they won't write songs in Italian anymore, just that this is an opportunity to work on their English language songs and I feel that as time goes on the lyrics to these are likely to grow in complexity too. To be able to do both and find success with songs in both languages is pretty outstanding. I'm in my early 30s and I haven't been this excited about a band in a really long time and when you take their ages in to account, what they're doing is remarkable.

[@missgreendayfan]

I agree, I hope they keep writing in both languages, but I would much prefer a focus on Italian, the ratio right now is good, it's working for them! I say this as a non-italian speaker, Italian sounds so great, I personaly prefer them... They should to use their language as an advantage, it's what they're known for anyways, it sets them apart from the others. The mainstream bands and artists usually only write in english because that's all they can do lol

[@ilysano]

I love the way they've always been, singing both Italian and English songs!

[@Misa732]

Don't stop singing in Italian!!!!

[@despoinapanagiotopoulou2722]

Their new album will look like the “Il ballo della vita” album that had both Italian and English songs,so guys don’t panic!I believe that Måneskin won’t stop making Italian (masterpieces) songs.Stay positive♥️🤘

[@stefaniacarraro7738]

They are also in the first three chart positions in most of Europe countries

[@user-px3cv8sp8g]

I honestly wish that they keep making songs in italian (primarely ofc, their english songs are awesome) look at bts, look at maneskin eurovision song, both of those surely wouldnt be so successful in english

[@aleycna]

you’re so right!! an english song once in a while wouldnt hurt but its bc they mostly sing in their native language that make these two acts so extraordinary

[@krishertz8786]

I'm an ARMY and recently became a måneskin fan , I hope they continue writing and releasing more songs in Italian because that's what sets them apart.

[@user-px3cv8sp8g]

@@krishertz8786 yup thats what i forgot to add! Their english songs are ofc phenomenal but it is their passion for music that help them broke the barriers in their own native language and that is what is unbelievable. Bts did it with just few english songs, so why cant maneskin also do it

Love love love this interview and love love love Måneskin - I’m not Italian but I adore their Italian music, even without translating the lyrics it just sounds beautiful and has a different depth to it and of course their English songs are amazing too, Måneskin are unique and that’s reflected in the success they’re having - I can’t wait to see their next accomplishments and hear their new music 🤘🏻🎸

[@sveasrike7824]

Please keep writing in Italian! I LOVE that! 🇮🇹😍

I don’t care what language they sing in, I am addicted 😳🥰

[@hbombthecat6056]

I don’t speak Italian so I do appreciate that they have some songs in English, but like they said, rock isn’t a common genre in Italy, so the fact that they are writing amazing Italian rock songs is really special so I hope they don’t completely count that out :) side note: why is every member of this band so beautiful😩

[@ТатьянаЕпищенкова-щ5ы]

Please write songs not only in English! Your Italian tracks are fantastic! The most beautiful language in the world 😍 you inspired me to learn it)))

They are incredible. I hope they won’t focus on songs in English only. Their Italian songs are authentic and even though i don’t understand one word, it’s mesmerizing. I also think that their Italian songs are what makes them stand out and apparently a lot of people outside Italy find it appealing. So it’s a great chance for their native language to get more recognition but also to make Italian rock a ‘thing’ in Italy. They will be remembered for that. And i personally don’t think they have to worry to seek connection with their foreign fans by making only English songs. ❤️ A nice mix would be great, people already like them for who they are right now.

[@gregorygant4242]

Great song , super performance by them , they totally deserved that win , they killed it ! The bass player ,Victoria is gorgeous , absolutely beautiful !!
