Radio Deejay

They start by asking if Måneskin are the most famous Italians of all time, Dami replies that they'll have to go a long way before they get to the level of Monica Bellucci.

They talk about the whole road made between Beggin and Zitti e Buoni. Damiano says that ZeB got them out of Italy but Beggin made them famous in the world. At first they were worried because it had an 'old' arrangement, from 2017, but then everything went well, also thanks to Tik Tok.

They play a game. Every now and then Måneskin pull a piece of paper with a challenge written on it out of a hat. The first to go is Vic, who has to call a person and the others have to guess if the person is sitting or standing ^^' Vic chooses his sister, but she doesn't answer the phone.

Damiano says that they are the example that one can be successful abroad and that other young Italians should try too.

They ask what the top of Måneskin's career would be for them. Tom says it'd be writing a song that will go down in history, regardless of the streaming numbers.

Another challege. Damiano takes out the piece of paper, he has to sing the Roma's team anthem. He sings with his hand on his heart XD

They ask the band how they would like to be remembered in 30 years. Ethan says that everyone makes comparisons to old artists and he would like it if one day Måneskin were the old artists others where compared to.

They talk about how Måneskin have given a new representation of Italian music abroad, which perhaps now will no longer be just opera. Dami and Tom say they don't like it when they're abroad and people always want to take them to an Italian restaurant. The other two, on the other hand, do not complain. Ethan always orders carbonara.

They talk about the cliches about Italians. The guys say it's annoying but it's not a major problem.

About the South America audience, the band says the audience is super warm and knows the lyrics of the songs.

The challenge: now it's up to Thomas. On the card he pulls out it says that they must turn the interview into a musical, that's to give questions and answers singing They sing about the underwear, bras and glasses that the audience throws on stage.

Now they got asked how do they manage family relationships. Damiano says it's a bit difficult. Then they talk about all the things they lose in hotels. Vic always loses a lot of clothes.

Vic then says that in Los Angeles it always happens that other bands, even small ones, come to hear them, because the musical environment is very rich since all the major producers are in LA, even if New York is cooler for young artists. London is unattainable, however, according to Damiano. Dami also says that Italy is far behind in this regard, because only established artists can play live, while for young people there is no chance.

The speakers ask what it's like to live together 24 hours a day, if they bother each other etc. Dami says Ethan is loud because he is always tapping on things. Vic adds that they travel with a lot of other people so it's not like they're always exclusively with each other.

Speaking of hypothetical collaborations Ethan says that apart from the big names, he would also like to collaborate with someone not famous who does different things from theirs.

A new challenge: the speech if they win an award. Ethan has one ready, that's about a meterorite but he doesn't want to spoil it.

Speaking of the famous people who are their fans, Tom says he ended up at Madonna's house in New York on the one night Vic was too tired to go out with him. Then they talk about the Moonskins, their coverband, and how often people gets Måneskin's name wrong.

Ethan draws a new challenge. Singing a roman rap song “In the panchine”. Ethan doesn't know it, they all sing together.

They ask what the other three do, during the concerts, while Damiano sings. Beside playing, of course. Dami makes fun of Vic who is out of breath because she's not very athletic. He calls her "the little one" ^^ Tom has his mission to keep his clothes on all the time even if he sweats.

The next question is who should play them in a Maneskin movie? Ethan says the Moonskin, the cover band.

Vic has a new challenge, they are the next presidents of the world for two minutes. Vic wants to give way to Ethan because when they went to see the Queen movie together, Ethan literally said they were going to be presidents of the world. Damiano wants Ethan to make a speech to reassure the people of the world when the world is in danger.

They talk about how Måneskin's songs are born. Dami says that for The Loneliest he started with the chorus, then he let the others hear it, they did the arrangement and then the rest of the lyrics was born. Thomas adds that this is not always the case and that they improvise a lot when creating music.

Dami also talks about the confrontation with the past. He says that we are all too tied to the myths of the past, in music, but also in other fields such as sport. He then adds that the market is too fast and creating new myths is difficult because of that.

They start by joking about the fact that Måneskin never made the card to accumulate airline miles. Then they say that in the few days they are at home they stay with friends and family, but sometimes they also see each other.

They ask what “itagnolo” is, Ethan says a mix of Italian and Spanish (= spagnolo) that they spoke in South America.

There's a recap of the nominations then the guys got asked what they tell their families when their songs hit the top of the charts. Damiano says that sometimes their parents tell them.

They talk about the concerts in South America and the audience in Tokyo clapping in a rhythm.

They tell how they shot The Loneliest video and ask Dami to retell the story of when he almost drowned.

The speakers remember the first time Måneskin arrived in that same studio, immediately after X Factor, and said only eight words. Then they ask the band which of their songs they doesn't like anymore. Dami says Chosen, but only because now with the knowledge they have, they would arrange it differently, but he still likes the song and the whole album. They talk about the autonomy they have in creating music, the guys say that they are autonomous and even if they have a good team to delegate some things to, they always want to keep control and that in any case some things are not predictable even for experts, for example. how some songs will perform in some parts of the world.

Tom tells of when James Hatfield (Metallica) came to their dressing room without notifying anyone because he wanted to meet them. Everybody was taken by surprise in fact they were dressing, or eating etc. but he was super happy anyway.

Damiano says he collects trash magnets at airports around the world.

They ask the band what are the events they've enjoyed the most. Vic says it depends not on the importance of the event itself but on the audience and their enthusiasm. Dami says that the crowd abroad don't pay much attention to the fact that they are Italians, it is more Italians who have the complex, but Vic kinda disagree.

Speaking of the elections in Italy, they remember the shitstorm in Damiano's Twitter profile, after he commented on the result. Damiano says it's also partly funny because absurd conspiracy theories come up. For example, when they announced the dates in the stadiums someone commented that it is not possible and that Måneskin are sponsored by the "strong powers". Speakers joke that the Måneskin are the "strong powers" favorite band.
