MORE NEWS

And very good news with no doubt. Two castings: one for singers and another one for songs. Both are online, but it will be a PROFESSIONAL JURY who will choose the singers and songs which will go through the TV shows. There will be also jokers, so famous artists or group can go directly to the shows. The singers will have to sing any of the previous Spanish ESC entries or any other ESC winner.
There will be three shows to choose the singer and then a final to choose a song for that singer (between January and February) -this is still to confirm -
We will have 50-50 televoting and jury again.

First conclusion: we don't know how this will work. It could work either well or wrong... But at least it's clear that TVE took this seriously and they made a plan instead of improvisations as the years before. They have worked to solve last years mistakes and we can't complain at them this year

After the win of Chenoa at the poll of the most imporant spanish web, somepeople think she could take part in the preselection.
Also TVE has talked about it, in a programme of the channel and the singer has thank the support in its facebook.

Other names that sound are Rosa (ESC'2002), who was selected by TVE to represent Spain in the las Eurovision Dance Contest, but finally Spain didn't partipate. At that time Rosa said, she'll always help TVE if it asks for.
Could we see Rosa at the preselection if RTVE ask her??

Re: ESPAÑA - Spain 2011

Chenoa said YES to Eurovision. She says she's so happy cause eurofans trust her and she would really like to go to ESC, even if she knows it's so difficult to win with the voting system, but at least to do well.
She says it depends on the songs and what TVE will offer to her.

Veeeeeeeeeery good news. I love her from the beginning

Re: ESPAÑA - Spain 2011

I truly hope Spain will finally pick the right song. The past few years they always ended up picking the weaker entries and then were suprised they flopped at the contest. I am really rooting for Spain next year!!!

Re: ESPAÑA - Spain 2011

Something typically spanish is also good for me
