Sanremo 2025: a second evening without lightning (except Damiano)

Sanremo 2025: the votes and report cards of the evening.

We reached the final of this edition of the Sanremo Festival: all the singers, voted by televoting (34%), radio (33%) and press room/web (33%). The positions from 6 to 29 were revealed at the end of the evening and then the first five classified in scattered order. The latter (Lucio Corsi, Brunori Sas, Olly, Fedez and Simone Cristicchi) They were revived and from there the winner of this year emerged: Olly, who triumphed at the Festival, with Lucio Corsi and Brunori Sas behind him. Guest the actress Valeria Scalera, while Antonello Venditti received the career prize. Carlo Conti was joined in conducting by Alessia Marcuzzi and Alessandro Cattelan. Below our votes and report cards, which try to be wider breathingtaking into account not only the last performance, but in general of the Sanremo faced by the artist.

Sarah Toscano – “Amarcord”: 5
He knows how to be on stage, he has a voice and personality. The piece is not the right one, too cheap. Will be refined.

Rkomi – “The rhythm of things”: 5

Here the piece is there, but the performance is missing, even if it has slightly improved. Rkomi has changed so many skin that, like Balto, you know “only what it is”.

Gaia – “I call you call you”: 5

Another artist from whom he expected more than he presents himself with a warm piece, which does not put the wings. At the performative level Gaia is in Focus, one of the few to exploit a beautiful choreography with dancers. What is missing and was missing was a song that lives up to the situation.

Massimo Ranieri – “In his hands a heart”: 5
One of the great gentlemen of Italian music, but in this festival a fish out of the water appears.

Joan Thiele – “Eco”: 8
One of the most beautiful and elegant pieces of the festival: Morricone and Mina metaphorically embrace while Joan sounds the guitar at St. Vincent. We are curious to listen to his next and new album.

Shablo, Guè, Joshua and Tormento – “My word“: 6

Black and Hip Hop culture atmospheres for a song that smells of the 90s.

A little out of time, but it must be said that the groove is there and the performance, as a whole, has held up the blow of Sanremo, a place that has always been difficult for the rappers. However, he did not affect.

Fedez – “beat”: 5

His festival begins weeks ago, between controversy and rumors. He sets all his participation on a dark piece that speaks of depression. But the border between truth, marketing and fiction, when it comes to Fedez, is always labile.

Irama – “slowly”: 5

A guinea pig for a Sanremo in which he cannot leave a real personal imprint.

Lucio Corsi – “I wanted to be a tough”: 8
The alien of the Festival, even if this appellation does not like this appellation: “I do not arrive from space, but from a puddle”. A deep, light and intense piece, a mix between Renato Zero and David Bowie, with all the debt proportions, a Lucio who illuminates the Ariston. A curiosity: under the boot he has the word “Andy” as Toy Story’s Woody.

Elodie – “Forget at 7”: 5

It was supposed to be one of the great protagonists of the Festival and, instead, thanks to a song not on fire, he cannot engrave how we would have imagined. She is centering on stage, but that’s not enough.

Simone Cristicchi – “When you are small”: 6

A Sanremo all heart and emotion, perhaps a little too much. His, at the level of writing, remains one of the most significant songs of this festival. The interpretation has always been over the top, exaggerated.

Giorgia – “The cure for me”: 8

One of the great protagonists of this festival: two years from “Words said bad” he returns to the race with a somewhat angular, not immediate, but sung with great personality and charisma. Take the lights and applause.

Coma things – “Cuoricini”: 6

They grew up evening after evening, the song is already a catchphrase. Of course, it must be taken for what it is, without pretensions. But in the universe a little crazy of Sanremo can only work, work.

Achille Lauro – “Young unconscious “: 7

A Sanremo on fire, with a generational piece that speaks of boys on the margins. That of the final is one of its most intense and successful performances.

Olly – “Balorda nostalgia”: 8

A ballet that, numbers in hand, is already record. The young singer -songwriter is the real and perhaps the only great novelty of this festival.

Kolors – “You with who you make love”: 5

Return to Sanremo with yet another catchy piece: done. Try to differentiate yourself?

Rocco Hunt – “A thousand votes again”: 5

It was expected more. In 2014 with the victory of “Nu Juorno good” in the “new proposals” opened the doors to many colleagues and rapper. At this tour he was unable to record how he did then and he did not even manage to insert himself in the line traced last year by Geolier’s success.

Noemi – “If you fall in love with you”: 5

A Sanremo in black and white, despite the pens and the help of Blanco, Mahmood and Michelangelo who sewed the song on her. A piece that, however, has never really left, simply because it does not start.

Francesco Gabbani: “Long live life”: 6
A pleasant, simple, but effective song for the Sanremo context. Gabbani goes on the safe side. And then that sunny smile is contagious.

Bunori sas – “The tree of the walnuts”: 8

A Sanremo in the sign of a Degregorian and important song, not one of the most effective in his repertoire, but stands on many competitors for writing and depth. And then seeing him in Sanremo already in itself is a small victory.

Serena Brancale: “Anema and Core”: 5

The Ariston, with her, turns into a whale. On stage he is good and honors his career, but appears out of context and the song presented is not among his best.

Clara – “fever”: 5

The scenic presence is there, but it is not enough: songs with personality and ideas are needed. “Fever” has the flavor of the already heard And it has no real original elements.

Tony Effe – “Damme ‘na hand “: 4

An harmless Tony Stornellator, no longer trapper bad guy. Very little technique, a lot of noise for nothing.

Rose Villain – “outlaw”: 7

His Sanremo is in the sign of the personality: the song presented photographs his style, tells his world in which Pop and Urban mix, just as it happened in “Click boom”. Rose confirms that he can be, in the future, one of the most interesting names of the new pop.

Modà – “I don’t forget you”: 4

A Sanremo equal to others, with the usual themes and the usual sounds.

Bresh – “The Giro del Crab”: 7

The singer -songwriter arrives at the Festival with a “his” piece, written by him, who represents him. He does not wear masks: the song is exactly this, “The Gur of the crab” is an intimate, safe and personal place.

Marcella Bella – “Diamond leather”: 4

The Baddie di Sanremo. The singer gets involved, but the operation is very reminiscent of that of the rich poor, last year, with the difference that, on this tour, the song is not a catchphrase, it simply does not work and is dated.

Willie Peyote: “Thanks but no thanks”: 7
The talking cricket of this edition: one of the very few with an intelligent and interesting text. Willie does Willie, accompanied by the “disturber” Luca Ravenna and, once again, does not betray himself.

Francesca Michielin – “Mud in Paradise”: 6

A Sanremo, slowly, growing. A Michielin in Taylor Swift version: his Revenge Song on his ex, in this last appointment, Vibra and shows himself in his best version.
