1 August 2024 - Måneskin - Beggin'

Måneskin made their big debut on the Italian version of the comeptition show X Factor in 2017.  

They came in second to Lorenzo Licitra, who 95% of you have never heard of.

They did so well largely because of this Four Seasons cover, which I would not turf over to Totally Covered because a lot of people don't know that it's a cover. 

Gosh, this week did not go the way I expected.  

When I wanted to post this song, I ended up posting their Eurovision winning song, which is inarguably a better song.  But this song is also amazing, and it needed to be highlighted.  It was, in fact, the success of "Zitti e Buoni" that led directly to the 2021 attention on this song, and it ended up being a worldwide hit...


....which is why they were nominated for an American Music Award four years after the song's release.
