"Non so che darei" ("I don't know what I'd give") was the Template:Esccnty entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980, performed in Italian by Alan Sorrenti.

Background

The song deals with Sorrenti's feelings for his lover. He tells her that he does not know what he would do if he were to lose her and also that he does not know what he would give to stop time and be able to spend the night with her.[1] The song was a massive success in Italy, staying on the first place of the Italian hit parade for over two months, and got Sorrenti a Template:Interlanguage link award.[1] Sorrenti also recorded an English-language version of the song with the title "If You Need Me Now".[1]

At Eurovision

The song was performed sixth on the night, following Template:Esccnty's Samira Bensaïd with "Bitaqat Hub" and preceding Template:Esccnty's Bamses Venner with "Tænker altid på dig". At the close of voting, it had received 87 points, placing 6th in a field of 19.

Italy opted out of the Template:Escyr and Template:Escyr contests, but returned the year after that. Thus, the song was succeeded as Italian representative at the 1983 contest by Riccardo Fogli with "Per Lucia".
