Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
di sta voce chjara e pura
mai spentu ricordu di te
quella notte cui con tè
sognu, mi lamentu
U moi core, n'ha primura
di a vita, aspettu dumane
invinuchjatu, vediu u mare
spart'u mondu con tè
mai tu, te ne vogli'anda
canteraghju vittoria
luntanu de tè, pensu sempre que
sei vicino a mè, sognu di te
canteraghju, canteraghju a tè
a canzona l'o i me
piengu è so male
pregu u celu fin'a more
cui dai monti, guidi front'a tè
per svegliammi da stu sognu
sè tu mori, eu dimè

If I remember rightly Cyprus were not in the final that year? Must have just picked a name out of a hat for the twelve points

it was clear that he was having unexpected trouble initially with the tone and pitch, but he over came it to demonstrate he has one incredible voice...(check out the other versions of this song as well)...

Massively underrated in the final. This should've been top 5 at least. Yes it's pitchy and he was better in pre Eurovision performances, but he's still amazing and it's a powerful commanding solo.
I'm so glad others have performed Opera at ESC. This remains my favourite French entry of that decade and one of my favourite entries of all time.

Non una voce francese. È in corso cioè quasi italiano

This is amazing, I voted for France last year. I hope you will send more these great singers!
