Waiting for Sanremo 2025: the phenomena of recent years

At the Sanremo Festival there have always been official winners and moral winners. It is not certain that the final ranking of the event corresponds to the ranking of the so-called “real country”. Indeed, most of the time the data relating to sales, streams and radio plays, in short to success real, they deny the Sanremo verdicts.

Yet another confirmation arrived this year: the winner of the Sanremo Festival was Angelina Mango with her “La noia”, but the real king of the event was Mahmood with “Tuta gold”. If after the Festival Angelina managed to win 3 platinum records with her song for the equivalent of 300 thousand copies sold, the singer-songwriter of “Soldi” even collected five platinum records, equal to half a million copies sold . And what about Rkomi? In 2022 he arrived at Ariston as the recording phenomenon of the year, on the wave of the success of “Taxi driver”. It didn’t go very well: with “Insuperabile” he stopped at 17th place in the rankings, in the medium-low zone. On the other hand, after the event the song became a 3-time platinum hit. The Sanremo Festival 2025 will be held from 11 to 15 February 2025. 30 artists will compete: from Elodie to Tony Effe, from Rkomi himself to Kolors. And then Giorgia, Olly, Irama, Rocco Hunt, Achille Lauro, Noemi, Francesca Michielin, Gaia.
