Spain have asked who you would like to see in the Spanish national selection for Eurovision 2016 and RTVE have announced the first of the 6 acts who will compete to represent the country in Stockholm.

Bertin Osborne has been today confirmed by RTVE as the first of the 6 singers to be selected. He is 61 years young and is a seasoned professional singer. He said that he has been approached many times by RTVE to perform at Eurovision but this was the right time for him.

FOOLS DAY – Today is a Spanish Holiday called ‘Fools Day’ – so we take this news with a PINCH OF SALT! Reader beware is what we say!

The song will be released once the other 5 contestants are announced but we do know that the song will be in castellano and performed on the piano. Maybe we can expect something like this from Bertin
