Beautiful life

Jose Galisteo all set to conquer Europe!

José Galisteo is all set to conquer Spain and Europe in his quest to represet Spain at the forthcoming Eurovision Song Contest. He is competing in the Spanish Eurovision national selection Tu país te necesita with the song Beautiful life. Jose gained fame, name and glory in Spain back in 2006 when he competed in the 5th edition of Operación Triunfo.

José Galisteo hails from Barcelona and has released 2 albums since his Operación Triunfo days.  His latest album Luces y sombras which was released by Label Sound Records, late last year includes his Eurovision bidding entry Beautiful life. This song has been composed by none other than Jesús María Pérez (the man behind the 2003 Spanish Eurovision entry Dime) and Tony Sánchez-Ohlsson (one of the composers behind the 2007 Spanish Eurovision entry I love you mi vida.

Luces y sombras includes 13 songs, which have been composed and produced by well-known Spanish musicians: Tony Sanchez Ohlsson, Miguel Linde (composer of Tu voz se apagará - Misión Eurovisión 2007), Jesús María Pérez and William Luque.

José is currently 9th on the RTVE Tu país te necesita online voting. Will he be in the Spanish final? As you all know, the official results will be revealed on Friday the 5th of February at noon.

And BTW (and before some of you jump me like fierce wolves), I don't give a rat's a*se what you call me for disliking his being su affected.

OH OH EWW!
I couldn't go past March... I had never ever thought, in all honesty, that he could be SUCH a DAMSEL. God, that's queer! Truly sorry, but that sort of camp number makes me feel embarrassed for him -we gay people do not need that kind of Gay Parade stereotype.
One more reason to decry this hopeful.

@ Ramón,
This song has a few good things, actually. But it seems it takes a paisano to realise the worst single fact about this entry: where's the singer? Una pena que se haya fanatizado la opinión (fanaticism = no opinion, just impression).

'To conquer Europe'???

The only think I like of this candidate is that he is from Barcelona area. The problem with Galisteo is that he can't sing.

Spain -send this song to Greece -they will know what to do with it...
yeah!we will not like it and not vote for it.Do you think Greeks have poor musical taste?well you are wrong!And "this is our night" was not warmly welcomed by the greek public but we couldn't do much.Could we?

@ Marcelo
Hahahahaha NOO!! :D
But as I think 90% of Spanish ESC fans are not interested in MF or MGP,simply it's not stuff they are really interested in, they are really not into schlagers........ and Spain is country who participate in ESC together with Norway and sweden, then I realy don't expact that somebody from Latin America is really into MGP or MF and likes everything about them and knows everything about them!! maybe you are, I dunno, sorry if I'm wrong!! (K)

@ Iwona,
I am pouting :(
Should I read your words as the type of "People down there know nothing but how to harvest banana" sort of comment? I hope not :P

@ ** T K,
I absolutely agree that eurofans (wherever we may be from, please?) don't equal Europe! I am fully aware that the vast majority of the 100,000,000+ audience are not like us. If we wanna talk about musical taste, well there's virtually no end. I myself listen to VERY different music the rest of the time. I would scorn the simplicity and veiled plagiarism of many of the ESC finalists (PLEASE no one get offended, ok?). I but "indulge" in ESC; but while I do so, I must continually try to understand us core followers.

By the way, this is an enriching experience for me, so thank you hardcore esctoday eurofans for the warm welcome :)


@Marcelo Nayar

If you must know i think Harel Skaat is the entire package so i am not just focusing on his looks. :) I think he has a fantastic voice and also has and will continue to produce good songs/music.

LOL im sorry but whoever said "if europe gets behind coral...", no chance, just coz the esc fans here sya they will, doesnt mean the home voters will.. we all know about esctoday and their tastes... If you in the gorgeous espana want to know how this or coral will go give me a day, and after my sis and mates hear it u will have a realistic... their tastes seem to reflect what does well and what doesnt lool.. i personally think both of these song will pull a soraya lol

@ Sara,

I am most truly sorry and ashamed if I made you feel humilliated.
I can't agree with your between-the-lines, though; actually, I took the time to 'write an essay' as you state (surely never meaning to insult, er?) to put it all ON the lines.
Really sorry I made you fume, I promise. It saddens me to unwillingly offend people I don't know.
