Mars |
Ahora
que-es cuando estamos a solas
soy aquello que llamasteis el mar
en el fondo del baúl
Perdona
tengo plástico en las olas
y secretos que no puedo contar
ya no tengo el agua azul
Si no quieres ver
que el mundo acabe así
debes defender la vida que hay en mí
Tu voz hoy puede volar
Llegar hasta marte
Llevarme al camino de la luz
Lo puedes cambiar
Llegar hasta marte
Llevarme a la luz
Todo puede ser
Como quieras tú
Ahora
Cada resto que abandonas
Es un arma que bien puede quitar
Una vida a cara o cruz
Funciona
con las mentes que razonan
con la gente que algo quiere cambiar
con la gente como tú
que no quieres ver
que el mundo acabe así
y vas a defender
la vida que hay en mí
Tu voz hoy puede volar
Llegar hasta marte
Llevarme a la luz
Lo puedes cambiar
Llegar hasta marte
Llevarme a la luz
Tu voz hoy puede volar
Llegar hasta marte
Llevarme al camino de la luz
Todo puede ser
Como quieras tú |
Now
what-is when we are alone
I am what you called the sea
at the bottom of the trunk
Forgives
I have plastic in the waves
and secrets that I can’t tell
I don’t have blue water anymore
If you don’t want to see
the world ends like this
you must defend the life in me
Your voice today can fly
Get to mars
Take me to the path of light
You can change it
Get to mars
Take me to the light
All can be
As you want
Now
Every rest you leave
It is a weapon that you can well remove
A life to face or cross
Works
with the minds that reason
with people that something wants to change
with people like you
you don’t want to see
the world ends like this
and you will defend
the life in me
Your voice today can fly
Get to mars
Take me to the light
You can change it
Get to mars
Take me to the light
Your voice today can fly
Get to mars
Take me to the path of light
All can be
As you want |
Spain in Junior Eurovision
Spain was one of the 16 countries participating in the first Junior Eurovision competition in 2003.
In her short stint in the contest, it won one first, two second and a fourth place. 2006 was her last participation. Nevertheless, the interest of the people in the competition was high despite the absence of the country. In 2019, after 13 whole years, Spanish public television decided to return to the competition.
Antes muerta que sencilla, the song that Maria Isabel won for Spain in 2004, is still considered the most commercial winning song in the history of children’s Eurovision.
