SANREMO 2024 – ANGELINA MANGO: In my life I will always leave some space for boredom

Interviews

Boredom is the song that Angelina Mango will compete at the 74th edition of the Sanremo Festival.

The song is written by Angelina Mango with Madame and composed by the two songwriters together with Dardust, who also takes care of its production with EDD

A contemporary Mexican cumbia in which the singer-songwriter plays with contrasts: starting from the pressing and energetic rhythm on which her voice moves in apparent contrast with the title.

“La noia” (LaTarma Records, distributed by ADA / Warner Music Italy) is an introspective piece and reflects Angelina’s approach to life, the awareness of how it is made up of positive and negative moments and how the whole range of feelings are part of our existence.

An urban folk production for this piece that combines elements of tradition and contemporary sounds, with also incursions into the musical imagination of the Balkans (with violin and classical guitar). “La noia” shows a new side of Angelina, which once again extends her artistic boundaries and her musical influences.

In this song which continually dances on different registers, Angelina Mango photographs in a sincere and ironic way the condition of boredom and its importance in the lives of all of us: boredom is “time”, time available to do the things we love and which allows us to recognize the value of life that oscillates between positive moments and negative moments.

THE STORY

SANREMO

I got into a giant smoothie and this blender is going to get even more giant in the next few days.
However, I am ready, prepared and excited for the experience. I feel like a little girl waiting for Christmas!

All these years I have worked for this. But I am strangely experiencing the wait with great tranquility.
I don’t have high expectations because this only increases the tension
I prefer this state of amazement and surprise and we’ll see what happens.

THE SONG

We didn’t write Boredom thinking about Sanremo.
When we finished the audition we immediately understood that it could also work in Sanremo. There is energy, vitality, but also heaviness and vocality in the piece.
I have a song that I believe in, I believe in myself, I believe in the team around me and I am surrounded by people I trust.

The only variable may be the performance. I will be afraid and anxious but I am also convinced that the stages are healing.
When I go on stage I feel better and well, Sanremo is the top of healing stages.

THE MUSIC

I like that the song is melancholy with a very poignant melody. In the construction of the piece there is a whole material side that can be felt. Kind of like the Gipsy Kings meeting Maluma.
Imagine the material aspect that comes out together with the urban sounds.

BOREDOM

Boredom usually comes when you’re feeling good, when you’re at peace.
Moments of boredom are nothing more than precious time to dedicate to ourselves.
I am much more serene and bored in a positive way

In my life I will always leave some space for boredom, it is certainly not a waste of time.

AFTER SANREMO

I will return to the stage with a club tour. We’ll take another trip to Italy.

MEMORIES

I have always experienced Sanremo in an active way. I did my multiplication tables with my grades.
I have always loved the tradition of Sanremo and I experienced it firsthand with my family
