# Daniel Zueras

Daniel Zueras is a Spanish singer. In 2006, he was the runner-up in series 5 of Operación Triunfo, a singing competition reality television program in Spain. In 2007, he released his solo album, Siempre Sale El Sol and the single "No Quiero Enamorarme".

## Biography

Born in Zaragoza on November 13, 1980, he started to show his interest in music as a child. Son of a commercial agent and a cook, he studied music theory and piano. He loves running but, above all, singing. Before entering Operación Triunfo in 2006, he worked as a waiter in the weekends at a theater in Zaragoza, but has always wished to devote himself to music. One of his idols is Mariah Carey.

### Operación Triunfo

In 2006, Zueras auditioned for Operación Triunfo in Barcelona, where he passed all the tests until he was admitted as one of the 20 finalists who would perform on Gala 0 of the show with presenter Jesús Vázquez.
From the very beginning Zueras stood out among his mates at the academy for his sweet voice, singing Pop music and Ballads, with numbers like "Otra Vez", by Coti and Paulina Rubio, "Unchained Melody", by The Righteous Brothers, "Last Christmas" by George Michael, "Blue Velvet" by Bobby Vinton or "Me & Mrs. Jones" by Billy Paul, among others.
Zueras finished in second place, ahead of Leo and only a few votes behind Lorena Gómez, winner of the contest.

### Siempre Sale El Sol

After several months working in, Rome and Madrid, for his debut album, while combining the recording with the Operación Triunfo tour Adelante, April 23, 2007, saw the release of his first original solo album "Siempre Sale El Sol" (The Sun Always Comes Out) with pop themes, dance and R & B.
The first album single, “No Quiero Enamorarme” (I don't want to fall in love), had been released a week earlier (April 16). The song's video has had so far a large impact among the public, because of its depiction of Zueras participating in a threesome with a woman and another man. Zueras has stated that his primary intention with the video was to break away from the cliché of innocent boy with which he was labeled at the academy. In YouTube, the video has had more than 668,398 views in the 10 months following its release, and has received many supporting comments. The single made #5 in the charts the first week in Spain.
During the first 6 months following the release, Zueras has sold 25,000 copies of his album "Siempre Sale El Sol" (The Sun Always Comes Out), which made # 31 in the Spanish charts.
Zueras has received an award as Discovery Artist of year 2007 by the Group Vocento.
