Sal Da Vinci Brings ‘Per Sempre Sì’ to Sanremo, Sets 50th‑Year Arena Flegrea Dates

The veteran singer presents his entry as a pledge of love shaped by family illness, with a recent assault detailed in interviews.

Overview

  • Da Vinci is competing at the 76th Festival di Sanremo with “Per Sempre Sì,” which he describes as a song about the deepest promise between two souls and the need to remain human.
  • The track credits Sal Da Vinci, Francesco Da Vinci, Alessandro La Cava, Federica Abbate, Merk & Kremont and Eugenio Maimone as writers, with production by Merk & Kremont and Adriano Pennino.
  • For the festival’s cover night, he will perform with Michele Zarrillo, reinterpreting the classic “Cinque Giorni.”
  • In recent interviews, he recounted his son Francesco’s meningitis and his daughter Annachiara’s angioma as experiences that inform the song’s themes.
  • He says he was punched after intervening to defend two women, and he has announced a tour starting in June that concludes with concerts on September 25 and 26 at Naples’ Arena Flegrea to mark 50 years of his career.
