A difficult year for the Big of Sanremo
The list of participants in the next edition of the Sanremo Festival has sparked a heated debate among Italian music fans. Among the names excluded, Povia stands out, an artist who has marked the history of the festival with his provocative and unconventional songs. His exclusion has taken many by surprise, considering his past successes and his stage presence. Povia, known for his unique style, expressed his disappointment through a video on social media, where he shared his emotions and the difficulties he faced after the news.
Povia's words: a mix of bitterness and determination
In the video published, Povia did not hide his bitterness for the exclusion, stating that he had experienced moments of great stress and anxiety. He revealed that he had suffered health problems, such as asthma, aggravated by the tension accumulated in the days preceding the official announcement. "The other night I completely lost consciousness because I couldn't breathe due to asthma", he declared, highlighting how emotional pressure can affect physical well-being. Despite the blow suffered, the artist expressed his will not to give up, announcing his intention to publish the song that he was supposed to present on the Ariston stage, entitled "Arbitro".
An artist in search of redemption
Povia stressed that fifteen years have passed since his last appearance on television, not only in Sanremo, but also in other programs. This long silence is attributed to his artistic and political choices, which have often sparked controversy. The artist stated that his songs, despite being authentic, have not always been well received by the general public and the media. His exclusion from Sanremo represents not only a setback in his career, but also an opportunity to reflect on his choices and the future of his music. With a mix of nostalgia and determination, Povia is preparing to return to the music scene, ready to make his voice heard and win back the public.
