Etta returns to the Sanremo stage with a new song that promises to shake up the Festival. Following the success of last year's controversial single "Amadeus," the artist presents "Perché Sanremo è Sanremo," a song that blends rock and punk sounds. Produced by V_Rus for B Music Records and distributed by ADA Music Italy - Warner Music Group, the song stands out as one of the few alternative voices at the event.

An Irreverent Song

The lyrics of "Perché Sanremo è Sanremo" ironically address the Festival's behind-the-scenes aspects, including backstage topics, gossip, and a reference to the Fantasanremo phenomenon. The artist maintains a provocative style, criticizing the system and celebrating the spectacular nature of the event.

References and Parallels

Among the references present in the song, there is a reference to the Placebo performance with Bryan Molko, an iconic event in the history of the Festival.

This tribute is presented as a liberating statement, destined to polarize public opinion. This year's visual approach is equally bold. In the music video, the artist is depicted as a pop-rock superhero, intent on "saving the Festival." The single's cover art emphasizes the pop aesthetic associated with Sanremo.

The artist declares: “Sanremo needs energy, and rock is pure energy. With Why Sanremo is Sanremo I want to make people scream, think and smile. Because, after all, Sanremo belongs to everyone, and I am here to remember it in my own way.” The song, available on all digital platforms during the week of Sanremo, promises to be one of the most talked about of this edition of the Festival.
