CAPCOM: Good morning Discovery! A special good morning to you today Paolo. Thank you so much for that beautiful Italian song and I won't even try to pronounce the name.

Mission Specialist Paolo Nespoli: Good morning Shannon. Now you've done it, because they're going to sing it all day. There was a group of people coming from my town that apparently sang that song for the whole week down at the cape. Drove everybody crazy. It's gonna do the same down here. Anyhow, I'd like to thank again my wife Sasha and of course, all the people in my town in Verano Brianza that came and supported me so tenaciously.

(Paolo repeats his wake-up reply in Italian.)
