In 1970, Julio Iglesias represented Spain at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song '
Gwendolyne'. Salomé, who was one of the four winners in 1969 when she performed '
Vivo cantando', thought it was a good idea to record her own version of this song, and perhaps profit a little from the success that Iglesias might have with this song in Spain.
Unfortunately, Salomé's version doesn't come close to the subtle beauty of Iglesias' version; it is a bit bland to be honest. Still, with singles like this it is always interesting to add a bit of history to your collection.
