Emilio Pericoli was an Italian singer and actor who was popularity during the 1950s and 1960s.
Much of his popularity was attributed to the Sanremo Music Festival as he released a cover version of the country's Eurovision entry from two years previously, "Al di là", by Betty Curtis, which became an international hit.
After his first failed attempt to represent his home country in the 1962 Contest in Luxembourg City, he was second time lucky the following year when his entry "Uno per tutte" represented his home country in London. He finished in 3rd place with 37 points.
He died on 9 April 2013 at the age of 85.
