Diana Cavazos Woloszyk Picks Her Single of the Week

After returning from a whirlwind rock and roll road trip to reunite with friends, Diana found herself unexpectedly captivated by a track that kept pulling her back for another listen-and another, and another.

“Oh my goodness. Yes, yes, yes, I do,” she exclaimed when asked if she had another song to spotlight this week. “I kept listening to this song more times than I probably should have.”

The track, “The First Time,” comes from Damiano David, the charismatic former frontman of glam rock sensation Måneskin.

The Italian artist, now 26, catapulted to fame after leading the band to victory at both the Sanremo Music Festival and Eurovision Song Contest in 2021 — a performance that left a lasting impression on Diana, who recalls it as her own first time watching Eurovision.

Following his band’s success and global chart-topping cover of “Beggin’”, Damiano has recently embarked on a solo career. This year marks the release of his debut solo album, Bunny Little Fears, featuring a new, deeply personal musical direction. His earlier solo singles, “Silver Lines” and “Born With a Broken Heart”, laid the groundwork for an album Diana describes as a journey through “his life, his sadness, his breakup, and the joy of a newfound relationship with American actress and singer Dove Cameron.”

Diana praised “The First Time” for its emotional progression and lyrical sincerity: “With the intro slowly reaching the chorus, with such emotion of the first time meeting someone so special… nothing compares to an electrifying chemistry. Damiano created the perfect song for that.”

She also highlighted David’s global tour plans, encouraging fans to follow him on social media and at DamianoDavidOfficial.com for tour dates and merch.

In particular, she’s hoping to catch his performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago this summer.

With a final flourish, she introduced her pick to Ginger and Nuts listeners.
