#1 ITALY Nina Zilli – L’amore è femmina (Out of Love)

This is Italy’s second year back in the competition after a long sulky break, and I reckon they’re going to go one better on their second place finish in 2011.


Last year their fairly ordinary jazz number set the scoreboard on fire, so that’s why I'm sure Nina Zilli’s even sassier L’amore è femmina can take home the trophy in Baku:


Nina’s often described as an Italian Amy Winehouse, but I think she’s more like Gwen Stefani covering Adele.

It’s fun, funky and a little bit different from everything else in the competition.

Rome 2013, anyone?
