Brief history of Spain in Eurovision
Three years ago, Chanel broke a long streak of eurodramas In Spain. But before, the story was another. In the previous six participations, the Spanish representative had always been below the 20th place. You had to leave until 1995 to find Spain within the top five classified, with the second position that Anabel Conde achieved with me. Something more recent were the sixth positions of Marcos Llunas (1997) and David Civera (2001). Rosa de España, Rosa López, had to settle for a meritorious seventh place in 2002.
In the opposite pole, Remedios Amaya in 1983, with who drives my boat? In Munich, he went home with zero points. It is not the only time that Spain has gone empty: in 1965 Conchita Bautista and in 1962 Víctor Balaguer also did not scratch any point, although then less countries participated than now and the voting system was different. And when do we win? In 1968 Massiel did with La, la, la y the following year, I salome with alive singing he tied with three other countries in the first place. By the way, if you allow me a seriéfilo comment, if after tonight you stay wanting more Eurovision, in Movistar Plus+ you have the song, which reviews, mixing fiction and reality, the path that led Spain to win the festival in 1968. There are three very light chapters, a comedy that will not change your life but they look pleasantly.
