"Fai rumore" (English: Make noise) was to be the Italian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 in Tel Aviv, performed by Diodato.
As a member of the "Big 5" nations, it had automatic qualification for the final but as the Contest was later cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic it was not performed.
However, he appeared as a guest performer on home soil in Turin at the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 to perform what would have been his Contest entry.

Sai che cosa penso
Che non dovrei pensare
Che se poi penso sono un animale
E se ti penso tu sei un’anima
Ma forse è questo temporale
Che mi porta da te
E lo so non dovrei farmi trovare
Senza un ombrello anche se
Ho capito che
Per quanto io fugga
Torno sempre a te
Che fai rumore qui
E non lo so se mi fa bene
Se il tuo rumore mi conviene
Ma fai rumore, sì
Che non lo posso sopportare
Questo silenzio innaturale
Tra me e te
E me ne vado in giro senza parlare
Senza un posto a cui arrivare
Consumo le mie scarpe
E forse le mie scarpe
Sanno bene dove andare
Che mi ritrovo negli stessi posti
Proprio quei posti che dovevo evitare
E faccio finta di non ricordare
E faccio finta di dimenticare
Ma capisco che
Per quanto io fugga
Torno sempre a te
Che fai rumore qui
E non lo so se mi fa bene
Se il tuo rumore mi conviene
Ma fai rumore, sì
Che non lo posso sopportare
Questo silenzio innaturale
Tra me e te
Ma fai rumore, sì
Che non lo posso sopportare
Questo silenzio innaturale
E non ne voglio fare a meno oramai
Di quel bellissimo rumore che fai
You know what I think
That I shouldn't think
That if I think then I'm an animal
And if I think about you, you're a soul
But maybe it's this storm
That brings me to you
And I know I shouldn't be found
Without an umbrella even if
I realized that
As far as I run away
I always come back to you
Who make noise here
And I don't know if it's good for me
If your noise suits me
But you make noise, yes
That I can't stand it
This unnatural silence
Between me and you
And I go around without talking
Without a place to arrive
I wear my shoes out
And maybe my shoes
Know well where to go
That I find myself in the same places
Exactly those places that I should have avoided
And I pretend I don't remember
And I pretend to forget
But I realize that
As far as I run away
I always come back to you
Who make noise here
And I don't know if it's good for me
If your noise suits me
But you make noise, yes
That I can't stand it
This unnatural silence
Between me and you
But you make noise, yes
That I can't stand it
This unnatural silence
And by now I don't want to do without
That beautiful noise you make
