# Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007

Spain was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "I Love You Mi Vida" written by Thomas G:son, Andreas Rickstrand, Tony Sánchez-Ohlsson, and Rebeca Pous Del Toro, and performed by the group D'Nash. The Spanish participating broadcaster, Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE), organised the national final Misión Eurovisión in order to select its entry for the contest. The national final consisted of four heats, a semi-final and a final and involved 57 competing acts. Five acts and five songs ultimately qualified to compete in the televised final where a public televote first selected the top five to advance to the second round. In the second round of voting, a regional televote exclusively selected "I Love You Mi Vida" performed by Nash as the winner. The group was later renamed as D'Nash for the Eurovision Song Contest.
As a member of the "Big Four", Spain automatically qualified to compete in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest. Performing in position 2, Spain placed twentieth out of the 24 participating countries with 43 points.

## Background

Prior to the 2007 contest, Televisión Española (TVE) had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest representing Spain forty-six times since its first entry in 1961. It has won the contest on two occasions: in 1968 with the song "La, la, la" performed by Massiel and in 1969 with the song "Vivo cantando" performed by Salomé, the latter having won in a four-way tie with France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. It has also finished second four times, with "En un mundo nuevo" by Karina in 1971, "Eres tú" by Mocedades in 1973, "Su canción" by Betty Missiego in 1979, and "Vuelve conmigo" by Anabel Conde in 1995. In 2006, TVE placed twenty-first with the song "Bloody Mary" performed by Las Ketchup.
After a restructuring that led to the incorporation of TVE into the current Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE) corporation on 1 January 2007, it was the latter who participated in the 2007 contest. As part of its duties as participating broadcaster, RTVE organised the selection of its entry in the Eurovision Song Contest and broadcast the event in the country. RTVE confirmed its intentions to participate at the 2007 contest on 20 October 2006. In 2006, TVE selected both the artist and song that would compete at the Eurovision Song Contest via an internal selection. For its 2007 entry, RTVE announced on 2 November 2007 that it would organise a national final featuring a competition among several artists and songs.

## Before Eurovision
### Misión Eurovisión

Misión Eurovisión was the national final organised by RTVE that took place at Prado del Rey in Pozuelo de Alarcón (Madrid), hosted by Paula Vázquez. The national final consisted of seven shows which commenced on 9 January 2007 and concluded with a winning song and artist during the final on 24 February 2007. All shows were broadcast on La 1 and TVE Internacional.

#### Format

Fifty-seven artists competed in Misión Eurovisión which consisted of seven shows: four heats on 9 January 2007, 16 January 2007, 23 January 2007, and 3 February 2007, a semi-final on 10 February 2007, a presentation gala of the candidate songs on 17 February 2007, and the final on 24 February 2007. The heats each featured fifteen artists (twelve in the fourth heat), while the semi-final featured the twenty qualifiers from the heats. Each artist performed original songs or cover versions of songs of their choice during the shows and five qualified from each show. The fourth heat featured an additional four acts which were duets consisting of eight of the artists that competed in the first three heats. The winning duet qualified for the semi-final. In the final, each of the remaining five artists performed five candidate Eurovision songs, selected through an Internet round, with the winner being decided upon over two rounds of voting. In the first round, the top five combinations of artist and song qualified for a second round of voting, during which the winning entry was determined.
The results during the heats and the semi-final shows were decided upon through public televoting and an in-studio expert jury. In the heats and the semi-final, the contestants first faced a regional televote where the top three qualified. The jury then selected an additional two artists (one in the fourth heat) from the remaining artists to advance. For the duet selection, the results were decided upon through public televoting. In the final, the first round results were decided upon through public televoting, while regional televoting exclusively determined the second round results. For the regional televote, the votes of each of the nineteen autonomous communities of Spain created an overall ranking from which a set of points was distributed. A twentieth set of points was based on the votes submitted via mobile phones. The two members of the in-studio jury that evaluated the contestants during the shows were music advisors of the national final: former Spanish Eurovision contestants Massiel who represented the nation and won the contest in 1968, and Mikel Herzog who represented the nation in 1998. Herzog was also responsible for the arrangements of the five candidate Eurovision songs performed in the final.

#### Competing entries

Two separate submission periods were open on 14 November 2006 for artists and songwriters to submit their applications and songs. Artists were required to be professional acts, while RTVE sought out mid-tempo and uptempo songs with the chorus containing Spanish words universal for any language or imaginary words easy to be remembered as well as part of the lyrics containing words repeated in English. The deadline for songwriters concluded on 30 December 2006, while the deadline for artists concluded on 15 January 2007. At the conclusion of the submission period, 1,001 songs and 680 artist applications were received. 60 artists were selected by music advisors Massiel and Mikel Herzog for the national final, while an evaluation committee selected fifteen songs for an Internet vote. 48 of the competing acts were announced on 8 January 2007 during a press conference with the remaining twelve artists announced on 30 January 2007, while the competing songs were announced on 11 January 2007. Among the competing artists were former Eurovision Song Contest entrants Amaya Saizar, who represented Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 1984 as part of the group Bravo, and La Década Prodigiosa, which represented Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 1988.

#### Artists pre-selection
##### Heats

The four heat took place on 9 January, 16 January, 23 January, and 3 February 2007. In each heat the fifteen contestants first faced a regional televote where the top three qualified for the semi-final; an additional two qualifiers were selected from the remaining twelve contestants by an in-studio jury. In addition to the performances of the contestants, the fourth heat featured guests performers Dana International who won the Eurovision Song Contest 1998 for Israel, and Eurovision contestant Dmitri Koldun who would represent Belarus in 2007.

### Preparation

The official video of the song was filmed in March 2007 at RTVE's Estudios Buñuel in Madrid. The final version of the song, produced by Mar de Pablos and Carlos Quintero, premiered on 7 March 2007 with the video later released on 9 March 2007 on RTVE's website. The music video served as the official preview video for the Spanish entry. On 21 March 2007, it was announced that Nash would perform at the Eurovision Song Contest under the name D'Nash due to issues with registering their initial stage name.

## At Eurovision

According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country, the "Big Four" (France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom) and the ten highest placed finishers in the 2006 contest are required to qualify from the semi-final in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from the semi-final progress to the final. As a member of the "Big 4", Spain automatically qualified to compete in the final on 12 May 2007. In addition to their participation in the final, Spain is also required to broadcast and vote in the semi-final on 10 May 2007.
In Spain, both the semi-final and the final were broadcast on La 1 with commentary by Beatriz Pécker. RTVE appointed Ainhoa Arbizu as its spokesperson to announce during the final the Spanish votes. The broadcast of the final was watched by 3.373 million viewers in Spain with a market share of 28%. This represented a decrease of 10.9% from the previous year with 1.339 million less viewers.

### Final

D'Nash took part in technical rehearsals on 7 and 8 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 11 and 12 May. During the running order draw for the semi-final and final on 12 March 2007, Spain was placed to perform in position 2 in the final, following the entry from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Spanish performance featured the members of D'Nash on stage dressed in white outfits and doing a dance routine, joined by two backing vocalists on silver kettle drums. The LED screens displayed a digital mosaic background which transitioned between blue and red colours, with the latter covered by the title of the song "I Love U Mi Vida". During the performance, D'Nash interpreted the song title in sign language in order for people who can't hear to understand the message of their song, as explained by the group members. The performance also featured pyrotechnic effects which included industrial sparks and flaming columns. The two backing vocalists that joined D'Nash were Noemí Calumarte and Rebeca Rods. Spain placed twentieth in the final, scoring 43 points.

### Voting

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Spain and awarded by Spain in the semi-final and grand final of the contest. Spain awarded its 12 points to Andorra in the semi-final and to Romania in the final.
