"(About the Sanremo Music Festival 2004) The record companies wanted to destroy the event [...]. They didn't send any singers, they were all young people, almost all unknown or not signed to record companies. Marco Masini, who won with “Uomo volante”, was not signed to a record label at the time. [...] It was a precursor to today's talent shows, and with hindsight it is recognised as very innovative. [...] It was a train that passed by and I jumped on with my eyes closed. I knew there wouldn't be many opportunities. Sanremo gives you your presenter's licence, even if it was a very difficult, extremely difficult Sanremo."
