Annalisa Accepts Global Force of Italy | Billboard Women In Music 2024

Annalisa accepts the Global Force award from Billboard Italy at Billboard’s Women In Music 2024.

So, thank you. Thank you so much. Hi everyone. Hi everyone, and thanks Billboard for this award. It is an honor for me to share this evening with great artists that I admire so much, and are one of the reason why I am an artist too.

I’m going to tell you in a few words, who I am through three of my last songs. The first “Bellissima” represents the moment I started using light to speak about shadows and disappointments with no fear and no shame.

The second “Mon Amour” is about freedom of love. We can say it is a revenge song against every discrimination. And this song has brought a woman at the No. 1 position in the singles chart in Italy after years. We took the scene back as the lyrics say, and I’m so proud.

The third and last “Sinceramente” is a love letter. But the message to share in the end is a deeper one. I claim my dreams, my way of life, my goals, my spaces, therefore I am yours only when I’m free. I think this is the magic of pop music. Spread the messages with simple words and with a rhythm that makes your soul dance. Having the chance to be here on behalf of my country and share these messages is for me the brightest victory. Thanks to my people. Thanks to my team. Grazie, grazie.
