“I have always watched the Festival with my family. I remember when I was 4 years old I fell in love with Geckos and vampires Gerardine Trovato, in the same year in the race Sanremo. I sang this song all day, and as soon as it hit the radio, I put it on my cassette. In the years Light, I will give you a rose and many other works performed on the Ariston stage entered the history of Italian music. Today I am here in the city of flowers, at the music festival par excellence and all this still seems incredible to me. A huge whirlwind of emotions that I’m trying to remember to take with me.

The days in Sanremo were full and tense between interviews, rehearsals, getting ready for the evening, all the van rides. An experience that makes you grow already during his life, which enriches you like little else in life. An important first time on a giant stage. I am also the first time as a translator, author track, two thousand minutes that Damiano David gave me and that from the first moment I felt mine.

Joint work of the last months with him, with my brother Tasap and Enrico Brun. In the evenings, I tried to voice all facets of my musical world, and also tested myself with a dance song, a dedication to Gigi D’Ag, which I wanted to perform with a friend, Naomi. I wish everyone at least once to feel what I feel in this moment, grateful for life and happy that I had the opportunity to be here to tell you about this dream, which has now become a reality.
