Eurovision 1975 Italy

[@viewfromthewheelthorntonsm4614]

Remember it well one of my favourite ever Eurovision songs

[@itsmesia2469]

One of the COOLEST song in ESC history.......

[@jabbandy]

I like this song. Italy has always been my favourite country in ESC. Later on in the 70s Dori Ghezzi was kidnapped by a band of Sardinian bandits wiith her partner at the time, Fabrizio de André.

[@BellaMusical]

@@jabbandy oh my God! What happened then? I've heard of De André.

[@b13ne]

[@minnamantyla]

Masterpiece

[@lanfrancotolfetti8798]

The starting notes of this song played by the orchestra are stunning, beautiful song.

[@urmo345]

yep, the times Eurovision was all about songs and melody...I miss it

[@Botafogoplayground]

Me too...

[@TheAntelwi]

Still sounds really good!

[@MrSteeljazz]

45 years later and still come back to songs like this. Thanks for posting.

[@Botafogoplayground]

One of the best entries ever to finish a Eurovision contest.

[@MrSteeljazz]

One of the standout songs from that year. I like the mellow funk groove, the strings and the vocals, especially Wess Simpson’s.

[@alisonclairemoses1190]

Stupendous unbeatable couple! Pity we can’t go back in time.

[@sirpamankinen5807]

This is Super!!!! Cant understand why Italy did not win the contest. But this is my forever favourite

[@abfab7830]

just because Holland was stronger and obviously a potential hit

[@chiriladorin-alexandru2776]

remain a great song even after 44 years. dori and wess were amazing in Stockholm 1975. this song finished 3 place.

[@TheAntelwi]

This should have won.

[@maaritlarinen9056]

One of the truly flawless entries to grace the Eurovision stage.

Da un po’ di settimane in qua Mi sento un’altra donna già Che vada tutto a rotoli Ora, ora, ora Accanto a te, ci sono io Amore, sono tutto tuo E sembra quasi un secolo Quando far l’amore Era baciarsi al cinema Era la mia domenica Era trovare un angolo nascosto Era, era Era arrossire in pubblico (L’amore) Era parlarsi in codice (Di amore) Era rientrare prima della sera Era Le storie che inventavo ai miei Le amiche conosciute mai La posta tra la biancheria Era ora, ora Ora sfido il mondo io Un amore quando è mio, è mio E sembra quasi un secolo Quando far l’amore Era baciarsi al cinema Era la mia domenica Era trovare un angolo nascosto Era, era Era arrossire in pubblico (L’amore) Era parlarsi in codice (Di amore) Era rientrare prima della sera Era, era Na na nanana nana… (L’amore) Na na nanana nana… (Di amore) Era rientrare prima della sera Era, era Na na nanana nana… Na na nanana nana… Na nana nana na… Era, era, era

[Eng] "It was" by Dory Ghezzi & Wess For a few weeks now I've already felt like another woman That everything was going to pot Now, now, now There I am, next to you Lover, I'm all yours And it almost feels like a century When making love It was kissing at the cinema It was my Sunday It was finding a hidden corner It was, it was It was blushing in public (Love) It was speaking in code (About love) It was going back home before the evening It was The stories that I made up for my folks The friends I never even knew The letters hidden in the laundry It was now, now Now I'm facing the world When a love is mine, mine And it almost feels like a century When making love It was kissing at the cinema It was my Sunday It was finding a hidden corner It was, it was It was blushing in public (Love) It was speaking in code (About love) It was going back home before the evening It was, It was Na na nanana nana… (Love) Na na nanana nana… (About love) It was going back home before the evening It was, It was Na na nanana nana… Na na nanana nana… Na nana nana na… It was, it was, it was

Holland became a huge hit in Europe

[@FlWanderer]

Bella coppia, bel testo, bel ritmo!

[@ELisa-qf2mw]

USA 1975: segregated music charts for white and black artists still exist Italy 1975: I don't care if you are white, black, green or martian, whoever sings a song completely or mostly in italian can take part in Sanremo festival, win and represent us in Eurovision Italy 2018: An albanian-born singer is one of Italy's biggest music stars and everybody loves him representing us in ESC Italy 2019: OMG, no way an italian guy born from an egyptian father won Sanremo, ewww, three words in arabic in his song, this is the freaking end of the world! I wonder what the hell happened to us.

[@lillolollo1217]

Ma guarda che Wess e Dori Ghezzi non avevano vinto Sanremo nel 1975, anzi non avevano neache partecipato. Questa canzone è stata scelta dalla RAI per l'Eurovision

[@ELisa-qf2mw]

@@lillolollo1217 ah ok, errore mio. Comunque Wes ha partecipato altre volte ed era una star in Italia.

[@ericaussudre2896]

Another beautiful song from Andrea Lo Vecchio

[@blazingscorpiez2550]

How did it got 3rd OMG why i love it

[@nicoledickson6099]

Amazing. Definitely would've been a good winner, modern, upbeat, great orchestra, great voices and singing. Not my winner but I'm surprised it didn't win! The juries liked a song about ding a dongs more.

[@Euroviking86]

I guess it's my lot in life to play peacekeeper, but at least we can agree that Italy were robbed here. (Btw, I love "Magic oh Magic" in the studio version, but the live version left a lot to be desired.)

[@Claudiaxyz]

Lost out to the song: 'Ding-a-Dong'. 😢

[@cesarjosebravolimo7253]

Esta canción merecía ser la ganadora

[@domeperruzza]

Nice. ..👍

[@laurentmartin22]

L'édition 1975, comme celles de 1976 et de 1979, étaient à mon avis les meilleures de tous les eurovisions. Ces années, bon nombre de chansons auraient pu gagner, comme celle de l'Italie en 1975. En 1975, les Pays Bas ont gagné (mérité) mais l'Italie, le Royaume-Uni, la France, ou la Suisse entre autre auraient pu gagner aussi.

[@Manne18]

❤️

[@amirg1645]

setheurovision94 yes, it's realy good song, but don't underestimate the winner, and also Shadows, that were really good, even our entry SHLOMO ARZI was good with great arangment, but 1975 is not just 'era but also an era of great music means hard compitition...still it's unique and very good harmony'

[@klarinetta]

One of those way too good songs for Eurovision.

[@Christophevalere]

Cette année,pour moi: Suisse : 12 PTS France : 10 PTS UK: 08 PTS Italie: 07 PTS Pays-Bas: 06 PTS Luxembourg : 05 PTS Malte : 04 PTS Germany: 03 PTS Belgique : 02 PTS Espagne : 01 PT

[@thomasit9077]

I think a few people noticed that the director is actually called "Christmas"

[@giovannimoriggi5833]

It means also 'about birth/native', but I think you didn't notice not everybody can speak Italian… 🤔

Hakkını yediler bu şarkının o yıl.

[@spannamatronic]

The highlight in a pretty weak year overall. Definitely gets my douze and has aged incredibly well. I don't hate Ding a Dong that much though! At least it doesn't suffer from the terrible verse/chorus juxtaposition which was really prevalent this year.

[@TheNathanj2009]

Italy were robbed that year 🙄

[@dinopugliesedok]

Italy robbed almost every year

[@littlejohnuk]

What is this genre? Reggae pop? MOR Reggae?

[@ceased2care]

It couldn't win against 'ding dinge dong' and 'let me be the one'. Epic year following on from Abba '74. Eurovision glory days.

[@surprisedadrianlol]

It's a really strong and solid song, but it would be so much better if he would sing the song alone or with an alto singer instead because their voices doesn't match each other at all.

[@gonzalocastilla]

endeed a beautiful song....greetins from Madrid, ;but for me, the song from Spain also could be won that year

[@OrhanEfeOzenc]

"Nasıl kıydın kendine gülbebeğim..."

[@jussitarponen1919]

I remember as a boy we recorded eurovision from the radio to the c- cassette.But now about this song, I don´like it very much

[@revloninlove7716]

Canción bonita pero sobretodo, tan sorprendentemente moderna. Tema bastante alejado del clasicismo acostumbrado y fue un éxito. Dori Ghezzi & Wess cantan bien pero no hay magia entre ellos, nada! Su tercer puesto con 115 puntos es muy injusto, todo un despropósito. Para mi es la peor representación de Italia hasta ese año. Doy 6 Puntos.

[@Botafogoplayground]

A mí me parece una de las mejores canciones de Italia desde 1956... Y un tercer puesto más que merecido. À chacun sa chanson.

[@MrEurocat]

Despite BAMPOTS like tasosk3 stating that ITALY can do no wrong in ESC (his bf is Italian) he is right on this entry - ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL unlike their 1985 - UTTER crap

One of the most overrated songs of ESC, boring and lineal with 0 chemistry between the performers.
