Where does the “Very Light Music” meme come from?

The Sicilian duo Colapesce and Dimartino performed the song at the 2021 Sanremo Festival on the evening of 2 March, where it placed fourth and won the Lucio Dalla press room prize. It came out on 3 March 2021 as the first single from the reissue of the album “I mortali²”. Within days social media filled with dance videos set to the track, even though the lyrics describe a low mood. Colapesce said pop belongs to whoever takes it, and the song stayed the hit of summer 2021.
