"La noia" (Italian pronunciation: [la ˈnɔːja]; transl. "Boredom") is a song by Italian singer Angelina Mango, released on 7 February 2024 as the third single from her debut studio album, Poké melodrama.[1] It was written by Mango, Madame and Dardust, and produced by Dardust.[2] The song was Angelina Mango's winning entry for the Sanremo Music Festival 2024, making her the first woman to win the festival in ten years,[3][4] and additionally received the "Giancarlo Bigazzi" Award for the best musical composition.[5]

As the festival also doubled as the selection of the Italian act for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024,[6] "La noia" went on to represent the country at the event, where it finished in 7th place at the final with 268 points. The song reached number four on the Italian singles chart and has been certified triple platinum by the FIMI, for selling over 300,000 units. It also reached the charts in Switzerland, San Marino, Croatia and Greece.

A bilingual Spanish-Italian version featuring Álvaro de Luna was released on 3 May 2024.[7][8]
