Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Francesco Gabbani (born 9 September 1982) is an Italian singer-songwriter.Gabbani is perhaps best known for representing Italy in the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest, with the song "Occidentali's Karma." note English: "Westerner's Karma" Though hotly tipped to win the competition in the months leading up to it, "Occidentali's Karma" ultimately placed sixth in the final, losing to "Amar Pelos Dois" by Portugal's Salvador Sobral.Prior to Eurovision, Gabbani's single "Amen" won the Newcomers' section of the Sanremo Music Festival in 2016. He ultimately returned to the competition the following year —this time in the Big Artists' section— and won with "Occidentali's Karma", which earned him (and the song itself) the privilege to represent Italy at that year's Eurovision.Gabbani has released a total of three studio albums since 2014, and composed the soundtrack of Italian director Fausto Brizzi's 2015 film Poveri ma ricchi.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Genius Bonus: The lyrics of "Occidentali's Karma" make a reference to Desmond Morris's 1967 book The Naked Ape: A Zoologist's Study of the Human Animal ("La scimmia nuda balla"), hence the dancing gorilla. The song also manages to rhyme Heraclitus's famous phrase "Panta rhei" ("everything flows") with "singin' in the rain". | |

Lyrical Dissonance | |
Francesco Gabbani (Music) / int_dbfd6b8 | comment |
Lyrical Dissonance: "Occidentali's Karma" has a much different meaning than non-Italian speaking people may assume judging solely from its Eurovision performance. Despite being an upbeat song associated with a dancing gorilla, the lyrics are actually a criticism of romanticized views of Eastern philosphy in the West and cultural appropriation. | |
