First right-wing extremists hijacked his hit, after which ‘cancel culture’ struck. Radio stations, Oktoberfest in Munich, UEFA – they all don’t want to play “L’Amour Toujours” anymore! Now world star Gigi D’Agostino is going on the attack. In an interview with Conny Bischofberger and Michael Pichler, he calls UEFA’s decision “racist”.
“Banning a song is like going back to the Middle Ages,” the Italian DJ explains to “Krone”. “If someone misuses a song to spread racist messages, he will do the same with the next song and the song after that. Racism cannot be stopped by banning my song.”
D’Agostino is shocked by the hysteria that broke out after the racism scandal on Sylt and Carinthia and points out the only meaning of his song. “It’s about the universal power of love, of people embracing each other and feeling united. This decision by UEFA is an explicit statement against love.” He explicitly calls the decision ‘racist’.
According to the news magazine “Profil”, UEFA has informed the ÖFB that the song “L’Amour Toujours” by Gigi D’Agostino, which was submitted in March and has now been discredited, will not be played at the ÖFB. European Championships.
