Sanremo (Imperia), 23 February (LaPresse) – ‘Who are we dedicating this to? To President Mattarella and all Italians. And to the Prime Minister? To President Mattarella and all Italians, especially those who gave us this wonderful republic.’ So said Carlo Conti, after singing Lucio Corsi's “Volevo essere un duro” on Radio Rock. ‘Can I sing, contrary to what I say in the advert? I try hard,’ continued the presenter, joking with journalists: ‘Who sings better, me or President Mattarella? The president is a genius, he kept quiet!’ he concluded amid laughter.
