"Insieme: 1992" (Italian pronunciation:[inˈsjɛːmeˌmilleˌnɔveˈtʃɛntonoˌvantaˈduːe]; "Together: 1992") is a song written and recorded byToto Cutugno. Itrepresented Italy in theEurovision Song Contest 1990, held inZagreb, resulting in the country's second victory in the contest.

Background

[edit]

Conception

[edit]

"Insieme: 1992" was written and recorded byToto Cutugno with Italian lyrics. He sang about bringing the disparate nations of Europe together. The "1992" of the title refers to the year in which theEuropean Union was scheduled to begin operation, thus bringing the hope of the lyric to fruition.[2]

Eurovision

[edit]

Radiotelevisione italiana (RAI) internally selected the song asits entrant for the35th edition of theEurovision Song Contest. For the song to participate in the contest, it was necessary to shorten it to fit into three minutes.[3]

On 5 May 1990, the Eurovision Song Contest was held at theVatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall inZagreb hosted byRadiotelevizija Zagreb on behalf ofJugoslavenska radiotelevizija (JRT), and broadcast live throughout the continent. Cutugno performed "Insieme: 1992" nineteenth on the evening, followingSweden's "Som en vind" byEdin-Ådahl and precedingAustria's "Keine Mauern mehr" bySimone. He was accompanied on stage by a backing group of five singers fromSlovenia, the groupPepel in kri [sl] –Zvezdana Sterle, Ditka Haberl, Tadej Hrušovar "Dejvi", Oliver Antauer, and Miran Rudan–, who had representedYugoslavia in1975. Gianni Madonini conducted the event's orchestra in the performance of the Italian entry.[4]

At the close of voting, the song had received 149 points, placing first in a field of twenty-two, winning the contest.[5] This was Italy's second victory in the contest.

Live arrangement

[edit]

As Slovenian backup singer Tadej Hrušovar remembers: "The first rehearsal was a total disaster, that's why I offered to re-arrange the song by myself. Cutugno told us (backup singers) 'Let's just get over with it, nothing good will come out of this.' We rehearsed backvocals kicking intro 'Insieme, unite, unite, Europe' really poorly for quite some time. Delegations from other countries looked at us really strangely and I was really embarrassed. I had enough and told Cutugno, 'That's it, I will do an appropriate rearrangment of the song all by myself. We can't just fool around, our band (Pepel in kri) has a great reputation in Yugoslavia.' So I did correct the arrangement and studied it with the other band members. After two days we had the second rehearsal and when we 'hit' that kick intro, Cutugno turned around with his mouth open, couldn't believe how powerful it sounded. Then panic also started among the rest of the delegations, who didn't take us seriously before. Then suddenly they started coming up to us, asking who we were."[6]

Aftermath

[edit]

As the winning broadcaster, theEuropean Broadcasting Union (EBU) gave RAI the responsibility to host thefollowing edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. This contest, held on 4 May 1991, opened with its hosts, Cutugno andGigliola Cinquetti, performing their Eurovision winning songs, "Insieme: 1992" and "Non ho l'età" respectively.[7]
