Spain has won 1 1/4 eurovisions, being part of the infamous 4 way tie of 1969, and allegedly buying a win in 1968. They also have not missed a Eurovision in 50 years. one wonders if that makes Spain the biggest masochists in Eurovision.

The greatest performance Spain has ever given was arguably last years entry by Daniel Diges. When Jimmy Jump invaded the stage, the song continued so professionally that I for one wasnt 100% sure it was a stage invader until the 7th performer came out onto the stage.... I had been drinking though. yeah I know it was the second song, but... drinking!


 
What is it about the female singers in Eurovision looking like drag queens? OK the live version her makeup isn't as bad as in the promo clip but there appears to be a trend. drag performers are meant to look over the top, Eurovision performers... well...

The song is a nice floral little summery song that will get spain a similar result to every other year in recent history. Yes, I expect that they will be in the bottom half of the final again. If only they didnt have automatic qualification in the final. 

Now back to when the Elyse Keaton, the mum from family ties represented Spain. That was 1984...
