Sanremo, late night performances by Ermal Meta (and the “conspiracy” accusations)

Punctual, with every evening of Sanremo, the proof of Ermal Meta, forced by the organization of the Festival to perform among the last, when it is already dawning outside. «’Hello Uncle Ermal, will I see you sing tonight?’ “No love, even tonight I sing very late and you will already be asleep at that hour”. “Then I dream of you, uncle.” Tonight I sing for your dreams and maybe tomorrow also for your eyes », the singer wrote on Twitter, on the fourth evening of the Festival. Ermal Meta, “Metal” as Orietta Berti called it, was the twenty-second, among the twenty-six Big of the Festival, to be able to perform.

But the late hour took nothing away from his performance.

“Hello Uncle Ermal, will I see you sing tonight?”
“No love, even tonight I sing very late and you will already be asleep at that hour.”
“Then I dream of you, uncle.”
💔
Tonight I sing for your dreams and maybe tomorrow for your eyes too.

A million things to tell you was chosen as the first classified of the fourth evening, Ermal Meta given as favorite. The singer, who together with Fabrizio Moro won Sanremo in 2018, seems to be able to get the better of the competition. What this did not leave the audience satisfied in its entirety.

Online, where Ermal Meta, every night, ironically complained of having to perform so late, someone screamed at the conspiracy. Ermal Meta would be like Mahmood, whose victory in 2019 would have been arbitrarily chosen by the press room. Meta, according to some spectators, does not deserve the first place in the standings. Less than ever, then, would he deserve the victory. Annalisa would be better, the Måneskin would be more radio. But something or someone (“Piani alti” has compulsory online some substitute of Napalm di Crozza) would have asked that Ermal Meta could win. Plot, plot and more plot.
