Hombres (song)

"Hombres" (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈombɾes], "Men") is a song that was Spain's entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1993, held in Millstreet, Republic of Ireland. It was sung by Eva Santamaría, who was chosen by the Spanish broadcaster, Televisión Española (TVE), as their representative in the Contest that year.

Internal selection

From 1977 to 1999, TVE used an internal selection process to select both the singer and the song to represent them at Eurovision. For 1993, Eva Santamaría, a 22-year-old singer who had just finished recording her first album in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A., was selected to go to Millstreet with the lead song from her album, "Hombres," written and composed by journalist Carlos Toro.

At Eurovision

At Millstreet, the song was performed twenty-second on the night, following Croatia's Put with "Don't Ever Cry" and preceding Cyprus's Kyriakos Zymboulakis and Dimos van Beke with "Mi Stamatas". At the end of judging that evening, "Hombres" took the eleventh-place slot with 58 points. No countries awarded Spain 12 points, the maximum score allotted to one country by another. Finland, however, deemed "Hombres" their second-favorite song of the evening and awarded Spain 10 points, Spain's highest allotment received from one country.
