"Europe's living a celebration" - Rosa

"Europe's living a celebration, we're going to sing all together"

The Spanish Final was hosted by Carlos Lozano at the TVE TV Studios in Barcelona starting on October 22nd with 16 contestants, with evictions until February 11th when the 3 winners were chosen. On February 25th, the first of 3 special programmes was held to select the Spanish song for the ESC. Each of the 3 winners performed 3 songs, and an "expert" jury selected the best two songs for each singer to progress to the next show on March 4th, when a televote decided which 3 songs (the best song by each singer) went on to the final on March 11th where the winner was chosen by televoting. The songs marked with a 'Q' have qualified for the next round of voting - the first column of results indicates the songs chosen in the first round, while the second column shows the televoting results for the second round.
