The Reviews
Lisa
This is Annalisa’s fifth time at Sanremo and every song has been better than the last. Almost in legend status now, Annalisa has more than deserved her shot at going to Eurovision! This years’ Sanremo is the most uptempo to date and Annalisa took the assignment and has ran with it in bringing Italy’s musical love child to Kylie’s Padam Padam. From start to finish I’m hooked onto every lyric and Annalisa’s emphatic delivery. Even uptempo, her vocal strength is evident. ‘Sinceramente’ feels like a tribute to an artist at the pinnacle of their career. If you want more of this, definitely check out the latest album, E poi siamo finiti nel vortice. You will not be disappointed!
