X Factor 2021: the Måneskin return home (with the compliments of Coldplay)

It will be because you are returning from a triumphal season in America, or due to a certain dose of parochialism that we will not shake off even with acetone, but, at the final of the fifteenth edition of X Factor which saw the Baltimore triumph, the Måneskin took the stage of the Mediolanum Forum in Assago greeted by a roar much more thunderous than that reserved for Coldplay, forced to recognize the escalation of a band that, from the Sanremo Festival to Eurovision, has slowly managed to conquer the world by climbing the global charts of Spotify and consecrating itself in a definitive way in the most unattainable place for any Italian artist until yesterday : America.

Al Forum, the same one that in 2017 saw them finish second at X Factor behind Lorenzo Licitra, Damiano, Victoria, Ethan and Thomas arrive with the banner of the great events that have made them immortal in recent weeks: the opening of the Rolling Stones concert in Las Vegas; participation in iconic television programs such as the Tonight Show by Jimmy Fallon, the Ellen DeGeneres show and The Voice; the announcement of Grammy Award nominees; the victory at the 2021 EMAs and, last but not least, the performance at the American Music Awards with the bow tie that, provocatively, Senator Pillon had advised them to wear to “align” with the traditional families that follow them.

With the emotion of the prodigal sons who return to the house that launched them, i Måneskin pack for the audience of X Factor a show that ranges from spectacular explosions to perfectly successful stage diving. All seasoned with the same determination and the same energy that has always distinguished them and that the band will bring out also in their next tour in the palaces and in the grand finale at the Circus Maximus in their city: Rome. On stage they did not cross, but Coldplay themselves said they were proud of the name that our group has made in recent months around the world: “We met them today for the first time, I think they are fantastic”, Chris Martin told Rtl 102.5. “We love them, the initial idea was to pay them a tribute by playing one of their songs, but then we realized they would play them too.” And, in short, even if Coldplay recognize their talent, all that remains is to raise your hands.
