In January 2016 , Michielin also embarked on her first concert tour , titled Nice to Meet You . A live extended play was recorded during the show and released exclusively to digital stores on 30 January 2016 . In February 2016 , she competed in the 66th Sanremo Music Festival , performing the song " Nessun grado di separazione " . The song placed second in the competition , behind Stadio 's " Un giorno mi dirai " . The band was then eligible to represent Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 , but they declined , stating they would be on a previously planned tour in May 2016 . Their decision led RAI to select Michielin as the Italian entry for the 61st edition of the European competition . Michielin 's entry was a new version of " Nessun grado di separazione " , featuring an English-language chorus and titled " No Degree of Separation " . In the final she placed 16th out of 26 . " Nessun grado di separazione " debuted atop the Italian singles chart and was included in '' di20are '' , a new edition of Michielin 's second studio album
