  • Albert, mi vida, tú eres esa mañana de verano que esperaba sentada al pie de mi ventada....Eres lo que yo mas quiero, eres lo que siempre soñé. Gracias por tanto y tanto amor que me das a mí y a nuesta niña, nunca me alcanzará la vida para agradecerle a Dios por haberte puesto en mi vida. I LOVE YOU!

  • This is an outstanding song in popular music. Great.

  • Amaya eres y seras lavoz mas bella que jamas se haya escuchado, te mereciasese reconocimiento y muchos mas.

  • This was a hit back when I was a kid, I owned the 45 rpm record to this ....had absolutely no idea what was being said, but loved it anyway :)

  • É linda esta musica.

  • Ganaron en la practica, o alguien lo duda? desde hace veinte anhos se me eriza la piel al escuchar a Amaya...

  • POR LEJOS, LEJISIMO, LA MEJOR CANCION DE EUROVISION. El grupo Abba haria musica pegadiza pero sin contenido ninguno, un simple pasatiempo, en mi caso, son insoportables. En cambio esta canción, dedicada a una madre, es UNA POESIA INOLVIDABLE y su música es profundamente emotiva. Una lástima que no ganara el Festival.

  • THE BEST of them all through all the years. Outstanding

  • you can also check Eres tu with Choir and Symphony orchestra (Gimnazija Kranj)

    young singers and instrumentalists performed the song in a little different versions:) Just listen

  • The best song ever!!!!

  • Great Tune!! What ever happened to the lead singer? What a pretty voice!!!!

  • @oofahman the lead singer is that lady with short hair that they presented at the end. Yes, the years have passed by.

  • If ever there was a good song in all that eurovision cr..p it was this one ... That and Waterloo !

  • i like this song

  • QUE GRAN CANCION Y AUN ASI NO GANAMOS!!!

  • What a beautiful tune , Eres Tu is TUMEKE

  • lindos lindos

  • (Third part of the song): Something like this, you are. Something like the water in my fountain. Something like this, you are. My fire at  home. You are, as my fire at home…You are, the wheat that makes my bread.

  • (ends the choir and she goes on singing): Something like this, you are. Something, as my fire at home…Something like this you are…the wheat that makes my bread. As my personal poem you are, you are. As a guitar playing at night. As my horizon you are, you are. This way, this way, you are.

  • This is the english translation (I speak both spanish and english) of the song "eres tú" (you are) I hope it helps: "As a promise you are, you are...as a summer morning. As a smile you are, you are...This way, this way you are...All my hopes you are, you are. As fresh rain in my hands. As a strong breeze you are, you are...This way, this way you are. (Choir sings): You are, you are as the water in my fountain. You are, you are...my fire at home

  • how many of you knew about the song in Spanish class?

  • You mean 3 of 6. In the Songcontest only 6 peopla are allowed on stage.

  • peopla = people

  • @bunkerhillcv17 could you give a link to Rutsuko Honda's version

  • Gracias Amaya por existir, te queremos.

  • Check out the my graphical video of the English release version of this song, "Touch The WInd"

    (v=4oSfy34lJhE)

  • I LOVE this song. I remember recording it on my old tape recorder from the radio way back when. Not like today's songs.

  • I've seen this video many times and always makes me cry.... :-(

  • Oh this was so sad when she cried remembering her dead brother. I was a child when I saw them in Grand Prix in 1973, now I am almost old. Life ran so fast.

  • mosedades es el mejor y siempre seran los mejores

    los amo

  • la amare siempre a la dulce amaya

  • So emotional..i was cryng when i watched this for the 1st and 2nd time..and I always get goosebumps when I watch this video. Amazing!

  • A latino I work w/ translation the song for me. Eres Tu = You are You are a promise, a tomorrow, a sunrise, a rainfall ...A love song

  • This is so awesome !

  • Apres toi of Vicky leandros won that years contest, eres tu was second

  • jajaja me da risa el baile porque no tiene nada que ver con la música

  • they showed us this song is spanish class, and the whole class is hooked on it xD

  • One of the prettiest tunes in any language or culture there ever was.

  • ME ENCANTA ESTA CANCION, GRACIAS PAPAS LOS EXTRAÑO TANTO, SE QUE DE DONDE USTEDES ESTEN ME CUIDAN.........CUANDO ESCUCHO ESTA CANCION ME RECUERDA MI NIÑEZ.............LOS QUIERO MUCHO.

  • respect for her, knowing that her brother just died a week earlier ! no matter what this is one of the most beautiful songs in eurovision ever in my opinion, besides i wasn't even borne in 1972, when they sung it original at the eurovision song contest :)

    greetings from belgium :)

  • lla ponganse serio con esos 2 de blanco i negro se equibocaron de sitio

  • buen video lastima lo echaron a perder esos 2 de blanco i negro

  • ik heb genoten van dit nummer en blijf dat doen.

    wie kan mij helpen aan de nederlandse vertaling van dit prachtige lied?

  • Eres tu did not win?...What song could possibly have beaten it?

  • @snoopy61259

    Hello, no ABBA did with "Waterloo" :-/

  • @misterfawlty it was Luxembourg with Anne-Marie David - Tu te reconnaîtras ;)

    and I think it was the better song;)

  • @misterfawlty

    Actually, "Waterloo" did not win over "Eres tú." If I recall correctly, ABBA didn't participate in Eurovision alongside Mocedades in 1973 (they represented Sweden the following year). The winner of the 1973 contest was Luxembourg, represented by Anne-Marie David, with "Tu te reconnaîtras."

  • @Frostifycation

    No, I meant the winner of this 2005 Eurovision Anniversary event... was ABBA ! Thanks for posting.

  • @Frostifycation you are right. I lived in England in 1973-74, saw the Eurovision contest on tv in Germany. ABBA won in 74.

  • @ITSLB

    Hello, the winner of this 2005 Eurovision Anniversary event... was ABBA ! Thanks for posting.

  • @misterfawlty You are horribly wrong my dear. This is 1973 and this song was beaten by Anne Marie David who sang Tu te Reconnaitras for Luxembourg. Abba is 1974.

  • @bezener no, I'm not my friend : we are here in 2005, ABBA wan this 2005 contest (of which this movie is a part of), it was the "mother of all contests" :-)))) thanks for posting

  • @snoopy61259 Eres tu was SECOND in 1973 the winner was Anne-Marie David Tu Te Reconnaîtras from LUXEMBOURG

  • @snoopy61259

    Tu te reconnaitras , Anne Marie David , Luxembourge won. I know what you mean but it seemed so right at the time. Now, at the threshold of my fifty years, I know that this is the song even though I do not speak one word of Spanish.

  • @snoopy61259 Tu te reconnaitras, Luxembourge. I know what you mean, but Anne marie David was very good that night.

  • My God, she didn't change in 32 years. How?

  • Desde que se oyen las primeras palabras de Amaya en el tema "Eres tú" se le eriza a una piel totalmente. MADRE MÍA, QUE HERMOSURA DE VOZ

  • ONE OF THE BEST SPANISH SONGS EVER. A CLASSIC THAT WILL NEVER GO AWAY.

  • VIVA AMAYA

  • demasiada canción para un festivalucho, no?

  • @pablitaun hace años era un buen festival ,por desgracia se ha estropeado.

  • Bueno!!!

    12 Points since 1969? from one Man from Germany.

  • vor mij het allermooiste eurosong festival liedje ooit

  • One of the worlds best pieces of music, very moving and beautiful.

  • Me emociono cada vez que oigo esta cancion y escucho su letra

  • I felt so sad for the group. The pain in Amaya Uranga's face at the end was heartbreaking. Her brother, Roberto Uranga had died (October 14, 2005) one week before the appearance and thus, this was a compromise. A broken heart ...

  • Yo naci en el año 1984 (11 años despues de este festival), pero recuerdo a mi madre escuchar esta cancion y sin ser de esta epoca, me trae bellos recuerdos esta cancion. Gracias por deleitarnos con tu bella voz, Amaya, porque aunque no ganaron este festival, no cabe la menor duda del exito sin limite en el tiempo que esta cancion tiene y tendra.

  • esta es la mejor cancion que se ha cantado en Eurovision en todos sus años de existencia.

  • habla espaniol ?

  • ez verdá el baile no pega nada con la canción

    es la mejor de Espña en eurovisión

  • Ooo well that's interesting I have to learn this song for Spanish class :(

  • what beautiful song that i've been listening since the 70's.

    I only wish that someone would translated into English,so that i could understand what it means.

    Does anybody know where i could get it translated.

    Thankyou, Gracias.( By the way I know a little Spanish..una Poquitto)

  • Like a promise you are, you are

    Like a summer morning

    like a smile you are you are

    like that, like that, you are.

    All my hope you are you are

    Like fresh rain in my hands

    like a strong breeze you are, you are

    Like that Like that you are

    You are like the water of my fountain

    you are the fire of my hearth .THIS TRANSLATION CAME FROM CHILEEPINGWIN,I PASTE IT SIR FOR YOU,IT SUCH A NICE SONG,TNX A LOT CHILEEPINGWIN

  • @Justheretoseefornow hiiiiiiii

Like a guitar in the night, all my horizon you are. like this, like this, you are
  • la mejor cancion española en Eurovision!

  • One of the most beautiful songs ever written.

  • Yes, I agree 100%

    With love and peace from Slovenia

  • El baile no tiene nada que ver con la canción. Amaya tiene una gran voz, incluso cantando el chacachá del tren, que siendo graciosa ha tenido también éxito.

  • You are right, Beuck76, but I guess they had to compromize to fit in in their show... thanks for posting

  • Oiga, pero que hacen esos dos bailando break dance? eso es para un baile sensual ó hasta para un vallet, no voleteen el disco así de feo, pónganse serios.

  • Justamente eso pensé al ver el bailecito, no va acorde para nada con esta hermosísima canción de Mocedades. Debieron hacer un baile más romántico. La coreografía quedó pésima. Mocedades se merecía algo MUCHÍSIMO MEJOR

  • I agree, but the whole event was a show you see... so sometimes there are concessions to make I'm afraid :-/

  • If my Mother loves the language then I should love it too......:)

  • buenas voces, buena cancion, ahorronce los movimientos negroides, su musica trascendera por su calidad.

  • Ya no hay mensajes en las musicas? El mundo esta podriado? En que mundo estaras viviendo!

    Imagino que nuestros abuelos pensaron igual cuando aparecio el rock&roll con elvis y compañia, y los beattles, porque se perdian las musicas tradicionales... El mundo y las generaciones evolucionan, lo que no te parece ati, esta bien para otros.. no es que este podrido.

  • The best song of all times!..

  • gracias por las lagrimas ahyyy que ricas han sabido

  • Esto es amor y romanticismo. Gracias a Dios vivi esa epoca. Este tipo de musica no deberia desaparecer pero el mundo esta podrido y ya no hay sentido ni mensaje en las canciones. SAM con todo mi amor te la dedico, lo mismo a q a Jovi, nuestra hijita.

  • I cant believe this song was written way back in 73 and I'm learning it in high school spanish class now. Thats awesome

  • I agree michaelm815, it's a great extra-ordinary song

  • @michaelm815 I remember it coming out in 1973. It was a big hit in the USA.

  • ciao amigos. quein puede escrivar las palabras

    de este cantion en espanol?

    because i want to learn this nice song, gracias

    y saludos de Creta

  • Hello soudianos, thank you for posting. Look below, Shredder32 already noted down the lyrics for us a year ago. Kind regards

  • muchos gracias mi amigo for your quick answer. what useful tool is the internet!!!!

    my next trip is para Andalousia!!!

    ciao y bessos de la Creta

  • La mejor cancion de eurovision, merecimos ganar

  • i love this song. and i think the original is much better than the version of perpetuum jazzile (but that version is of course not bad!)

  • perpetuum jazzile sings this better listen to it pls!!!

  • C'mon, this is the original, nobody, not even Johnny Mathis' version, matches Amaia's

  • Amaya's brother Roberto had died 10 days before this was made. It really shows in their appearance-all black + choking back tears. They together were so glorious + talented. Spanish version of Mamas + Papas without the drugs + more production. !Saludos y Viven, a los Mocedados!

  • est belle

  • Viva Amaya ,che bella voce

  • When music was music. Today, it just sucks!

    This bring back a lot of fond memories.

  • Magnifica, recuerdo haber trabjado con ella en varias oportunidades, Amaya Uranga siempre, espectacular voz espero verte una vez mas amiga

  • I learned this song in high school spanish class. brings back memories.

  • Esta muy buena la cancion y te llena de emociones, saludos de Mexico

  • Great Song, great video and thanks for posting.  5*****

  • Comment removed

  • hermosa canción.........

  • XLSeattle...I thought I was the only one who cries at this song!!! What a perfect, beatiful, sincere song!!!

  • No you're not....I do too...and I don't know why.

  • What is on the screen behind the dancers is a perfomance from Spanish TV channel 2 from the 70s. I was living in Spain then. I love this anthem to love. After all these years - it still makes me tear up.

    Lo de la pantalla es una grabacion the Mocedades de los años 70s de Television Española canal 2. Creo que lo vi en vivo. Despues de tantos años esa cancion sigue llenandome de emocion.

  • Hola XLseattle, I lived in Madrid from 1970 to 1977, this video brings back a lot of memories.

  • no es acaso la interpretacion que hicieron en eurovision?

  • Si, con la que ganaron La Eurovision en el '73

  • no ganaron, quedaron segundos

  • First time I ever heard this was when I saw this exact sequence whilst flicking through the channels. I just stopped dead in whatever I was doing, and then I cried my heart out.

    And I still do, each time I hear it.

    It's just too beautiful.

  • one of the best selling songs from a crap competition.This was one in a million class all the way.

  • They played this song in church a few days.  It's a great and inspirational song....would give it a 10

  • Bravasoo Mocedades muy pronto la tendremos aka en Peru el 10 de Mayo Dia de la Madre estaran en Peru bonita cancionn graciass

  • Un poema hecho canción, un himno al amor, al amor que no se olvida, al amor verdadero, que aún en la vejez da frutos, por que el espirito permanece joven por siempre.

  • A poem made song, an anthem to the love, to the love that one does not forget, to the real love, which still in the oldness gives fruits, for which the spirit remains young forever.

  • Very nice, I had to learn this song for spanish class last year, it's a really nice song.

  • They were great!One of my favourite songs on ESC ever.

  • whats the lyrics in engish ?

    Classic Timeless song !!!

    It will outlive us all !!!

  • "Touch the Wind" is the name of the English version.

  • @apatheticempathy

    The chorus lyrics are "Wise men say only fools rush in, but I cant help falling in Love with you" could not make out the Chorus sorry mate.

  • love this song learnt it in spanish class

  • As a child i remember how this song made me happy and sad altogether...

    I would like to say thank you, Mocedades, for this lifetime present.

    Thank you

  • ke emocionante fue ke no xD

  • There were only 3 surviving members. It's sad, but so life goes. It would have been nice to have the surviving member sing, but who knows if a health problem may have existed and taken the better quality of the voice--especially in the lead singer. It was obvious they were very honored to be there. Great song. I remember when it rose to popularity in the U.S.A in the '70s.

  • Why didn't they have the real singers?

  • they had, only 3 surviving members... sad

  • Coincido en que, en la práctica, fueron los ganadores de Eurovision 73

  • preciosa Amaia, su voz sigue siendo incomparable! Me llena de emoción cada vez que escucho ésta canción... la mejor, para mí!

  • the real winner in 1973, always in our hearts. Spain should have won this contest. The greatest ever in ESC

  • Preciosa y nada más que preciosa!!!

  • soberbia canción, vasca y española, no faltaba más...me emociona ver a Amaia llorar en éste video, cuantos buenos momentos nos han dado mocedades, gracias nenes..

  • What a beautiful song!!!!!!!!!!!!! me encanta Mocedades!!!!! viva nuestra lengua el espanol!!!!!!!!!!!

  • BEATIFUL

  • This classic will live forever. It is so good to see Amaya here in this '05 video, yet she looks so sad and exhausted -- is she still with us ?

    Her crystal clear voice and the beautiful melody combined to make it one of my alltime favorites.

  • She is still with us...she looks so sad and exhausted because her brother, Roberto (one of the other founding members of the group) had died a few weeks before this concert. Notice the actual members wearing black and you'll also see that she was crying in the video and wipes her eyes at the end of the performance.

    I was a little kid when this song came out and I still enjoy it after all of these years. Wonderful Song...

  • What a beautifull song...I was 4 year old when Mocedades wind the 2nd winner on 1974, but I like this songs very much. In Indonesia, mocedades wasn't well-known so much, so first time I heard this song, was the one sung by Johnny Mathis ( Do anybody have this video, share please)? ..Thx

  • It is so awesome to see Amaya so emotional. I bet all those memories just came flooding back to her. What a great way to honor such an amazing performer. and PS Mocedades SHOULD have won Eurovision in 1973.

  • I did not see this one when i was in europe that year my mom would might have been really suprized with that.

  • Looking at the various videos thru the years, and then seeing this 2005 clip, there is no doubt that Amaya and the song must be among the most beloved in the history of Spain -- and the world.

  • I can't believe Finland gave only 3 points!

  • ok, so they didnt win the contest, so what? do you know the winner song from 1973? i dont, and i dont care! Mocedades won our hearts, and their song will live forever! this is what means more than winning a stupid political contest!

  • actually i know the winning song because it was equally good, eres tu just became more famous...

  • eurovision is a load of crap

    I can´t believe that this song never won. This being one of the actually good songs to be presented at that piece of shit contest

  • I love these 60-70's old clips!

  • VIVA LA MOCEDADES!

  • @gargoyle2bad4u VIVA

  • Definitely should have won 12 votes from Ireland

  • Mocedades for ever!!!!

    What nice songs you still sing under the name of EL CONSORCIO!

  • Amaya was so sad here because her brother had died just a little before this, think it was only a few days before;-(

    One of the best songs, melodies in Esc, it came second though, it should have been the winner of '73!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Atorrantes Spicks que tiene que hacer esa danza Americanegroide con esta bella cancion Gallegos acomplejados

  • alfinal kien gano este programa?

  • Que viva mocedades por siempre!!!!!!!!!

  • Beste songfestival liedje ooit!

  • This is one of the most touching songs ever made. I'm from Sweden and can't understand much more than the title of the song, still it affects like not many songs do.

  • aww the ending made me cry.

  • i love this song.

  • Unfortunately Mocedades did not come second. Volare was runner up and Hold me now by Johnny Logan came 3rd. This song didn't even make the final 5

  • says so much more bout the voters than the song, doesn't it?

  • Well dear Rockythecat... ABBA won with their 'Waterloo' ! Mocedades was second, indeed (but they should have been in first place of course lol)
