Following the dominance of English language songs, particularly Sweden's 1974 victory (with ABBA's "Waterloo"), a rule was passed in 1977 that the song had to be sung in one of the official languages of the performing country.
Spain and Portugal also remain faithful to singing in their native tongues, although both have used English in recent songs, such as Spain's "Europe's Living A Celebration".
The 2005 contest saw France, Spain, Germany and the United Kingdom, the four largest contributors to the EBU who automatically qualify for the final, occupying the four bottom positions of the final, each with fewer than 20 points.

However, Spain struggled in the early years of televoting, and had to rely on its 'Big 4' status to avoid relegation - after finishing 16th in 1998, 23rd in 1999 and 18th in 2000, David Civera's 6th place in 2001 marked a welcome return to form.
The song is catchy but it is simply not worthy enough for victory in Kiev.
The fact that it sounds like the Las Ketchup song demonstrates that the Spanish delegation is clever enough to promote a song based on the same elements.

 Spain - discography
Spain's music is a response to the current inundation of loud, aggressive guitar-rock; Spain combine country music's simple storytelling aesthetics with the blues' ability to not only describe an emotion but to make the listener feel.
Spain's music lifts the spirit even as it admits to the crushing of the heart; anyone who has loved and lost -- or won, but wondered -- finds considerable that is familiar in these songs, most in minor key; nothing that they've heard, but much of what they've felt.
Even the saddest of the songs are laced with a wry and knowledgeable humor, with joie de vivre; with a knowledge and appreciation of life, its recurring failures, its small victories.

 Yule Tide And Christmas In Spain
In Spain, the land of romance and song, of frost and flowers, where at Yule-tide the mountains wear a mantle of pure white snow while flowers bloom gaily in field and garden, the season's observance approaches more nearly than in any other country to the old Roman Saturnalia.
Spain is a land apparently out of the line of Wodin's travel and influence, where one looks in vain for the mysterious mistletoe, the pretty holly, and the joyful Christmas tree.
In some parts of Spain bull-fights are given as late as December, but cold weather has a softening effect on the poor bulls and makes them less ferocious, so unless the season proves unusually warm that favorite entertainment has to be abandoned for a time.

Well, you must bear in mind that the most important and funny thing of these song are the lyrics, so you can't say that this song is dreadful, let's say that this song is just unappropriate for the JESC (coz nobody will understand the lyrics) and most of us will agree.

 Sketches Of Spain by Miles Davis Super-Audio CD
Combining as it does the emotional gravity of two cultures--the deep song of flamenco music and the rich lament of the blues--SKETCHES OF SPAIN is a musical hybrid of enormous power and beauty.
The centerpiece of SKETCHES OF SPAIN is the Evans/Davis treatment of the second movement of Rodrigo's "Concierto De Aranjuez." Evans' charts engage Davis in a shifting, insistent dialogue, italicizing the trumpeter's subtle variations and timbral ecstasies with magnificent orchestral flourishes.
The surreal patina of three flutes and harp, high muted trumpets and woodwinds, and subterranean trombones, French horns and tuba that define one of the main variations on the theme, is a majestic foil for Davis' expressive tones.
